University of Maryland BioPark

The University of Maryland, Baltimore BioPark offers a dynamic lab and office environment for life science companies, next-gen ventures, university spinouts, distinguished research organizations, cutting-edge clinical care and contemporary workforce training programs.

“The University of Maryland BioPark serves as a hub for the region’s many players, supporting the growth of early-stage technology ventures. The BioPark regularly works to bring together the startup community alongside local university partners, incubators, development organizations, state entities and investors to strengthen the community and support entrepreneurs at all levels as they advance their ventures. By offering commercial lab and office space on the campus of the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB), the BioPark is an ideal launching point for companies that have graduated from area incubators and/or spun-out of local universities. When 4MLK opens, these companies will have the opportunity to locate in a flexible lab suite that offers space and resources to help them grow. Additionally, we work to connect these companies with the research and clinical resources at UMB, allowing and encouraging them to collaborate with entrepreneurial faculty and together bridge the gap between academic research and commercial ventures.” — Jane Shaab, executive director, University of Maryland BioPark; associate vice president for economic development, University of Maryland, Baltimore
