City (Manhattan & Brooklyn) Major life sciences initiative underway in City With support from the City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) and the local government, City is an emerging cluster for the growing life sciences industry. A number of factors allow the sector to thrive. As a global financial leader, the city s direct access to capital and its rich talent pool contribute to its status as an ideal destination. A diverse economic landscape and proximity to the booming tech sector have also created unique opportunities for innovation among established life sciences tenants and smaller startups. City is already home to recognized industry giants (like Roche, Pfizer and Eli Lilly), and the NYCEDC estimates that more than 100 other life sciences companies are located throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn. Additionally, boasts the world s largest cluster of renowned academic institutions, research foundations and medical centers.
