DURHAM -- The N.C. Biotechnology Center is embarking on a $10.4 million addition to its headquarters in Research Triangle Park that will provide 20,000 square feet of new office and conference space.
The addition will support a number of new job-creation initiatives in biotechnology leadership, entrepreneurship, K-12 education, work force training, business development and university research programs. In addition, the expanded facility will continue to play host to an estimated 35,000 visitors annually, according to the Biotech Center.
The four-story structure will be the first addition to the center since founding in 1984. The original 47,000-square-foot center was built to house 50 employees. It's now pushing 65.
