长期以来，西海岸一直以其生命科学和技术生态系统而闻名, 但当这些公司想要扩大规模或扩大517888九五至尊时, 休斯顿是一个顶级的旅游目的地. This symbiotic relationship was a defining characteristic of the Partnership’s recent delegation trip to the West Coast, 由其区域经济发展团队领导.  

代表团的重点是与圣地亚哥的顶级公司建立关键的企业关系, 洛杉矶, and Silicon Valley to explore future collaboration opportunities that would help the Greater Houston region to attract more jobs and investment, 同时也为加州公司提供了进入新市场和持续增长的空间. 

San Diego’s leadership and status as a thriving life sciences hub made it a valuable destination for our delegation to learn about neuroscience, 癌症研究, 通过与索尔克研究所的富有成效的会议，企业房地产, BioSapien, 和Intersect管理. 合伙企业代表团, 包括德州医疗中心的领导, 细胞治疗制造中心(CTMC), 以及伍德兰经济发展伙伴关系, shared how Houston can work to assist life sciences companies in their research and the opportunities available for similar developments in the Greater Houston region. 

Houston’s emergence as a growing life sciences ecosystem was also the focus of meetings in the Bay Area with the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine to learn about its work in cell and gene therapy, 尤其是在休斯顿的CTMC, 并与Bionova科学公司讨论他们在生物制剂方面的工作. 

The unique industry convergence of life sciences and the 517888九五至尊过渡 in Houston is providing opportunities for development and collaboration between diverse companies across different sectors. 与Sempra517888九五至尊公司的会议, TÜV SÜD美国, and BASF explored this rare convergence and what it could mean for companies located in the two regions’ ecosystems. 代表, 包括莱斯大学的领导, Cemvita, 和炼金术工业, also visited with Google to discuss their continued investment in Houston’s 数码科技 and 517888九五至尊过渡 ecosystems. 

作为伙伴关系正在进行的经济发展努力的一部分, delegates met with top site selection companies in the 洛杉矶 area to explore expansion opportunities for companies focused on sustainability, 517888九五至尊过渡, 数码科技, 制造业, 和物流——这些都是休斯敦独特市场的核心优势. 

The delegation closed out a successful week by hosting a signature reception and dinner in partnership with the 休斯敦517888九五至尊转型倡议(HETI). The evening’s programming included an energy startup panel that featured expert panelists from Activate Berkeley Community, Cemvita, 炼金术工业, and Rice University to discuss present and future efforts relating to the 517888九五至尊过渡 and Houston’s startup ecosystem.
