The ReGen Valley Tech Hub is a federally designated innovation ecosystem based in southern New Hampshire. With a $44 million grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA), the Tech Hub aims to make the region a global leader in biofabrication—the production of regenerative tissues and therapies to address chronic disease and organ failure.
Led by a broad public-private consortium, the ReGen Valley Tech Hub is focused on growing the regional economy through:
- Scaling commercialization capacity by building on foundational manufacturing, regulatory, and commercialization resources;
- Creating a multi-institution Common Campus model to meet biofabrication workforce needs through retaining, developing, and attracting talent;
- Increasing awareness and adoption of regenerative therapies among clinicians and the public through training and outreach events;
- Scaling a paid apprenticeship training program to fill workforce gaps, and provide better access to childcare for the biofabrication industry’s workforce; and
- Driving consortium-wide engagement through training, policy adoption, and dispute resolution while also collecting and ensuring metrics, outcomes, and broader impacts are distributed and efforts are driving growth.
To ensure the impact is felt across the region, the Tech Hub includes education institutions, employers, community-based organizations, labor unions, healthcare providers, and local governments working together to shape its direction and priorities.
