In an exciting development for the city of Plano, Governor Greg Abbott has announced that NTxBio (commonly referred to as NTx) will be setting up a new biomanufacturing facility right in the heart of the area. This move is expected to create over 170 new jobs and represents a whopping investment of more than $31 million. It’s a win-win for both the local economy and the healthcare industry!
Texas has long been known as a leading state for groundbreaking and life-saving medical research. With thousands of biotech and life science firms calling it home, the Lone Star State solidifies its reputation as the epicenter of healthcare innovation. NTx is keen to contribute to this thriving ecosystem by introducing advanced biomanufacturing solutions to bolster the healthcare industry right here in Texas.
The new facility in Plano will focus on producing pharmaceutical-grade raw materials specifically for RNA and protein therapeutics. Given the ongoing advancements in medicine, this is not only necessary but critical. As the demand for these resources continues to rise, NTx’s expansion is both timely and strategic.
Founded in 2015, NTx has been steadily growing. The new facility will complement its existing site in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, helping the company meet the challenges posed by an increasing demand for high-quality materials used in treatments for various diseases, particularly in areas like cancer and rare illnesses.
The announcement also aligns with the expansion of Plano’s medical industry which is gaining traction through the development of the Texas Research Quarter. This ambitious project covers a sprawling 200-acre area and is expected to create over 2,000 jobs. In the long run, the total employment impact could soar to over 30,000 jobs, thereby solidifying Texas as a leading destination for life sciences innovation.
As part of the project, NTx was granted a Texas Enterprise Fund (TEF) grant of $1,479,000. This financial support underscores the government’s commitment to keeping Texas at the forefront of biotech research, ultimately striving to save lives through cutting-edge treatments. Local government officials express optimism that NTx’s arrival will not only strengthen the life sciences hub but also invigorate the entire region’s biotech community.
All eyes are on Plano as it becomes a magnet for leading innovators and companies in the medical field. With a robust talent pool in biological and chemical engineering, Texas positions itself as a formidable contender in the biotech sector.
