topic and prompt
aiming to fund startups earlier in their lifecycle to fill a gap they've identified in the bay state's booming biotech market, a state agency on tuesday approved $2.2 million in grants for companies to reach early-stage milestones.
"this was a gap in which massachusetts often loses companies to other states," said susan windham-bannister, the outgoing president of the massachusetts life sciences center.
Before the center's board approved the grants to 12 companies, windham-bannister said larger biotech corporations have been moving to the bay state because of "our rich pipeline of early stage companies."
while the center provides loans to slightly larger startups and provides grants to early-stage companies to reimburse them for hiring of interns, tuesday's awards was the first time the center has given grants to companies to help them achieve early milestones, according to center spokesman angus mcquilken.
State-sponsored grants of between $50,000 to $200,000 were offered for companies to complete milestones, such as prototype development, market analysis, clinical trials or business plan development, and the center received 98 applications from 42 cities and towns, according to pamela norton, the center's vice president of industry programs and relations.
