Dallas-Fort Worth is in the Midst of a Biotech Boom

Written By Kathleen Otto

Dallas recently ranked No. 6 nationally in a report on emerging biotech markets produced by real estate giant CBRE. 

In addition to the Dallas-Fort Worth’s relatively low cost of living, business-friendly environment, and blistering growth, its educational institutions are supplying the talent companies are looking for. Last year, area universities produced 1,935 bachelor’s degrees, 378 master’s degrees, and 108 doctorate degrees in biological and medical sciences, according to the Dallas Regional Chamber. 

Through infrastructure investments and a push for growth, Fort Worth has developed its own biotech scene, with accelerator TechFW leading the charge and partnering with UNT’s Health Science Center in Fort Worth and Texas A&M’s growing research and innovation presence in the city.
