The bioscience industry has erupted over the past 10 years. Although the practices have been at play for longer, the industry advancements have gained positive regard more recently, resulting in investment and regulatory green lights. Scientific innovations have fueled the possibility for further advances to improve lives and living situations across the globe.
The United States bioscience industry continues to be a significant economic engine creating high-wage, family sustaining jobs with average wages well above the overall private sector. This CEO Roundtable will gather different speakers who are living in this arena to discuss ongoing changes, developments, and what this means for North Dakota.
