Question of the Week | Can't answer the question in your email? Click here to view as web page before commenting. | With Mustang Bio opening a biomanufacturing facility in the UMass Medicine Science Park and Chinese firm WuXi Biologics announcing plans for a $60-million facility in the Worcester Biomanufacturing Park, biotech experts like Kevin O'Sullivan from Massachusetts Biomedical Initiatives are hailing Worcester as a biotech destination.

No. Worcester won't be internationally recognized until established companies open headquarters in the city and not just individual facilities. | |
