DESCRIPTION
The Massachusetts Life Sciences Center ("Center") is a quasi-public agency of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, created by the Massachusetts legislature in June 2006. The MLSC is closely affiliated with the Executive Office of Housing and Economic Development but is not subject to its direct supervision or control. The Center was established to promote the life sciences within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It is tasked with investing in life sciences research and economic development. This work includes making financial investments in public and private institutions growing life sciences research, development and commercialization as well as building ties between sectors of the Massachusetts life sciences community.

“Big Pharma” Faces Significant Challenges
Drug pipelines are running dry
Many “blockbuster medicines” are about to lose patent protection
Traditional drug-development processes at big pharma are expensive and inefficient Models have not changed significantly from the late nineteenth century
-- synthesize and screen thousands of compounds in search of a few new drug candidates
The traditional business model at big pharma also is expensive and inefficient: Identify promising new blockbuster drugs Conduct large, expensive clinical trials If successful, promote the drugs with extensive marketing and sales
presence in developed countries
12
Manifestations of the Problem
Internally developed pipeline productivity at big pharma has decreased significantly -- averaging one new molecular entity a year per company
…And…
The cost of bringing a new drug to market has continued to rise -- currently estimated to exceed $1 billion
……But……
The timeline for developing and getting a drug to market has not declined -- can take as long as 15 years

The Massachusetts Life Sciences Center: Who We Are and What We Do
Mission:
Serve as the “hub” of the Massachusetts life sciences Supercluster
Encourage innovation through investments in good science and good business
Strengthen and protect Massachusetts’ global leadership position in the life sciences
Accelerate the commercialization of promising treatments, therapies and cures
Create jobs and drive economic development
The Massachusetts Life Sciences Center develops and offers creative programs that fund innovation-driven economic development initiatives in the Massachusetts life sciences cluster, but also may have relevance for other “innovation” sectors.
18
Discovery Development Delivery
The MLSC Strategy:Fund targeted initiatives that reduces barriers, fill gaps and promote
collaboration across the life sciences innovation process. Enable MA to “innovate how innovation occurs!”
• Promote and fund convening and collaboration• Partner with and leverage private sector stakeholders• Invest in early stage companies (pipeline and external innovation)• Support workforce development and training • Build capacity, infrastructure and unique resources in Massachusetts
The MLSC’s Overall Strategy is to Invest in Gap Closure Across the Innovation Life Cycle...

International Pre-Commercialization Program
Objectives: Promote and motivate collaboration
between life sciences companies in Massachusetts and other countries
Facilitate partnerships between companies in Massachusetts and other countries to execute exciting new projects
Provide joint funding to subsidize the costs and accelerate the execution of these projects
Approach:
Partner agencies with funding and scientific review authority implement the collaboration with the MLSC
Competitive solicitation used to select the most promising project(s) proposed by teams consisting of a Massachusetts-based and non-U.S. based company
Program focuses on collaborative life sciences projects in late R&D or development
Participating companies must each articulate their role in executing the proposed project
Massachusetts companies will receive funding from the MLSC; international company will be funded by relevant Partner agency
Each of the participating companies will provide matching funds
Objective: Promote late stage industry R&D collaborations between a Massachusetts company and an international company with joint funding provided by the MLSC and an international partnering agency
33
International Partnership Assistance Portal (IP-ap)
Objective: Make it easier for international companies to identify and pursue potential partnerships with Massachusetts companies.
Massachusetts is open for collaboration: 24/7, 365 days a year.
Free, password-protected, cloud-based portal -- Create your user profile at https://partnering.masslifesciences.com
Open to MA-based life sciences companies and international life sciences companies
Companies describe their business and qualities they are seeking in a partner
Searchable database - MA companies can search MA and international companies, and international companies can search MA companies
