mission and approach

     Bioeconomy.org is managed and produced by Global Bioeconomy Consulting (GBC), a strategy-through-implementation consulting firm dedicated to developing the innovative life sciences sector and related converging sectors in regions throughout the globe. We work directly with local stakeholders to create practical solutions to enable and accelerate competitive growth and prosperity in the region.

     Our international focus and experience provides us with a deep understanding of government policy and development challenges faced by the life sciences and related industries in different countries around the world. With an overall objective to build local prosperity, we work alongside our clients to engage local partners, including governments, academia, industry, and not-for-profit organizations in the implementation of actionable strategies that generate sustainable growth and global competitiveness.

     Through our wealth of experience, we have identified two key elements of a successful project. First, the GBC team takes the time to carry out in-depth case studies and craft tailor-made strategies - avoiding the "one size fits all" trap that is unfortunately common in the economic development consulting field. Second, GBC has established a process for engaging leadership that ensures the recommendations are implemented - avoiding the dusty, shelf sitting report epidemic. In addressing these key elements, GBC has established specific and clear objectives:

  • Generate New Understanding: collect data, create new information tools, and conduct analysis with a single goal of spurring action, not paralysis;
  • Accelerate Results: facilitate an implementation process through our "hot team" process that quickly moves the client from reports to results; and
  • Focus The Future: make the complex simple by focusing resources (time, reputation, money) on 3-5 critical steps that will transform a region's economic future.
     GBC augments its capabilities by leveraging a network of over twenty experts in the fields of research and development, infrastructure, capital formation, workforce and skill development, university-industry partnerships, entrepreneurial management, and economic analysis of cluster growth. Additionally, GBC tracks 40 U.S. regions and 38 global regions where technology and innovation are drivers of the economy. This quarterly tracking follows a number of key metrics and identifies emerging trends influencing regional tactics for industry clustering, and overall regional competitiveness.
