What is the Massachusetts Life Sciences
Initiative?
A 10-year, $1 billion initiative to invest in the state’s life sciences
sectors, enacted by the Massachusetts legislature in June 2008.
The Initiative is administered by the Massachusetts Life Sciences
Center (MLSC), which serves as the “hub” of the state’s life
sciences community.
Encourage life sciences innovation through investments in good science and good business
Strengthen and protect Massachusetts’ global leadership position in the life sciences
Accelerate the commercialization of promising treatments, therapies and cures
Create jobs and drive economic development
Goals of the Life Sciences Initiative:

The MLSC’s Strategy is to Invest in Innovation
Capacity
What is Innovation Capacity?“The ability to produce and commercialize a flow of innovative technology over
the long term.”Furman, Porter and Stern, 2002
“Geographies with high innovative capacity usually develop faster economically,
attract highly skilled populations, and experience rising incomes and trade.”(Harvard Business School 2001)
Why Invest in Innovation Capacity?
• Optimal role for the public sector
• All stakeholders and regions benefit from the investment

Investments Also Coalesce the Massachusetts
Life Sciences “Cluster” into an “Ecosystem”
Massachusetts has a high
concentration of
universities, research
hospitals, skilled workers,
entrepreneurs, mature
companies and investors
In a high-performing
innovation ecosystem
these components work
well individually and
together!
