The University of Florida’s Sid Martin Biotechnology Incubator is a pioneer in bio-business incubation and a unique component of UF’s successful commercialization efforts (Business Week). Since 2002 our companies have received $241 million of investment and $89 million in grant awards.
Our program placed 2nd in an international competition for 2007 Technology Incubator of the Year. Our 40,000 square foot customized facility features 22 wet labs, $1 million of shared equipment, an animal facility, fermentation facility, and climate controlled greenhouse. We focus on assisting companies with introductions to experienced management and investor groups.
