NY BioHud Valley

The Hudson Valley is home to an exceptional mix of both well-established and new venture biotech/pharmaceutical companies. With Pfizer, Regeneron, Acorda, ContraFect, Novartis, Avon and 80+ other pharmaceutical, biotechnologyand medical device companies located in the region, the Hudson Valley offers abundant collaborative research opportunities and a strong supplier network. More than 60% of the nation's pharmaceutical industry is centered in metro New York, where biotech firms are also flourishing and new digital health firms are cropping up every day.

The goal of the NY BioHud Valley initiative is to aggressively market and brand this fast-growing cluster. Our aim is to solidify the Hudson Valley as the epicenter of biotech and innovation. In addition, we foster a pro-business environment designed to reduce legislative burdens, foster collaboration among our life sciences companies and educational institutions, and assist companies with access to venture capital.
