The role of universities and market factors in the location of biotechnology industrial clusters.
Connell, Judith.

The role of universities and market factors in the location of biotechnology industrial clusters. - 85 p.

Chair: Stuart O. Schweitzer.

Thesis (D.P.H.)--University of California, Los Angeles, 2002.

A general observation of the principal biotechnology clusters today finds the presence of nearby universities and large public or private research institutions. This report tests that observation and quantifies the relationship between biotechnology companies and research institutions. Phase Two of the project examines biotech location by metropolitan area incorporating the national data collected for Phase One (population, colleges and research universities) with additional variables to identify the variation and idiosyncrasies within clusters.

520 $a A general observation of the principal biotechnology clusters today finds the presence of nearby universities and large public or private research institutions. This report tests that observation and quantifies the relationship between biotechnology companies and research institutions. Phase Two of the project examines biotech location by metropolitan area incorporating the national data collected for Phase One (population, colleges and research universities) with additional variables to identify the variation and idiosyncrasies within clusters.
520 $a The findings suggest that biotechnology firms tend to locate in populated areas, consistent with the simple model that biotech firms locate where there is a pool of workers from which to hire. The model improves markedly when including the influence of the proximity of colleges and universities. This is consistent with the ideas that biotechnology firms do not hire so much from a general population reservoir, but rather from a pool of college students or graduates. The model is an even better predictor with the inclusion of universities that are especially rich in terms of a research environment, measured either as being one of the “elite” research institutions in terms of government and private extramural funding.
520 $a The cluster analyses demonstrate that market size alone is not a determinant of firm location. Strong clusters have emerged in large and small localities. Cost of living has not deterred cluster growth in expensive markets as yet but it may present an opportunity for more affordable communities to capture market share. The data supports efforts to attract additional life sciences research funding as a catalyst to biotech firm development. Strengthening computer science academics, perhaps introducing bioengineering studies, is also indicated. Markets with strength in computer science may be very well positioned to embrace the convergence of biology and electronics. The data also underscore the critical importance of access to capital. The competition for venture capital may represent the biggest challenge to localities seeking to enter the biotech industry or grow from their current level. Markets that have the key elements in place can be stymied by low interest from investors.
