It’s a very simple issue: If the biotech industry is going to set up shop in Central Massachusetts, it’s going to need the space to do so.
Enter: Galaxy Life Sciences, a young development firm dedicated to building out the bioscience industry around Worcester. In the city proper, this is happening through The Reactory biomanufacturing campus, whose first occupant will be a $60-million facility belonging to Chinese biomanufacturer WuXi Biologics. Zicaro and Michael O’Brien from Galaxy are handling the rest of the campus, which could fit up to a half dozen tenants. To start, they are developing a $50-million build-to-suit facility. A previous employee in the life sciences industry, Zicaro understands the field from both inside and out.
