The North Carolina Biotechnology Center is a private, non-profit organization located in Research Triangle Park (North Carolina, United States). Founded in 1984 by the North Carolina General Assembly, it was the first state-sponsored biotechnology initiative in the United States, merging the interests of the academic private and public sectors.〔(North Carolina Governor's Office ) Press Release, Hunt Announces Establishment of Biotechnology Center as Independent Corporation, December 12, 1984.〕 The North Carolina Biotechnology Center's mission is to provide long-term economic and societal benefits to North Carolina through support of biotechnology research, business, education and strategic policy. It receives nearly all of its funding from the North Carolina General Assembly. Since 1984, the North Carolina Biotechnology Center has invested more than $187 million in state monies to develop biotechnology statewide.
