Texas Medical Center Launches World’s Largest Life Science Campus
Anchored by $1.8 billion in secured financing, 37-acre TMC3 positions Texas Medical Center as a global life science leader. The TMC3 master plan, which encompasses approximately 6 million square feet of anticipated development, was designed by Boston-based Elkus Manfredi Architects, a key player in shaping several of Massachusetts’ leading life sciences clusters.
FOUNDATION
The Texas Medical Center is working to build institutes that foster collaboration across all 61 member institutions. These institutes were selected following a strategic planning meeting in January 2014 during which member institutions CEOs, city and community leaders gathered to discuss the future of life sciences.
TMC Innovation is shaping the future of health care by uniting promising innovators with the best minds in science and medicine at the member institutions of the Texas Medical Center. By supporting entrepreneurs as they broaden their vision and network, we help companies take their products from bench to bed.
