Frederick is emerging as a leading national location for the bioscience industry. Located within the Maryland bioscience cluster, the third largest in the U.S., Frederick is now home to more than 60 bioscience companies. Attracted by Frederick’s location at the northern end of the I-270 Technology Corridor, an excellent transportation network, highly skilled and educated workforce and proximity to Fort Detrick, these companies enjoy an innovative, supportive and highly collaborative environment.

Professional, scientific and technical occupations dominate employment growth in Frederick, accounting for 56% of new jobs over the past few years. Through Fort Detrick, these companies enjoy opportunities for federal contracting and technology transfer with the National Cancer Institute, tenants of the National Interagency Biodefense Campus, and other federal agencies on base. Extensive local and stateside support networks strengthen local businesses as they compete in the global market.
