Testimonial

“We are located in the heart of a strategic biotech corridor that stretches from Southern New Hampshire to Massachusetts and Rhode Island. This allows companies like ours to learn from each other and it provides supporting infrastructure for our industry. This is a good location. We intend to stay here.”

Chris Perley
Managing Director, Wyeth Biotech

A cluster of medical-related high-tech companies has been steadily growing in the Merrimack Valley over the past several years. Andover-based Wyeth – the maker of the No. 1 selling vaccine in the world and the No. 2 pharmaceutical drug – operates the fourth largest biotech organization in the world in the Merrimack Valley. The region is an attractive location because of its proximity to the biotech research hubs of Cambridge and Boston, quick access to airports in Boston and Manchester, N.H., and the availability of highly trained workers.
