Dear Members of Arizona’s Bioscience and Business Community,

Our industry is making progress every day to develop new  technologies and services that will support and sustain life, feed the world, and fuel it.  What we do matters.  More importantly, the next generation of bioscience leaders will give life to new innovations, some we can only yet imagine.

As graduations commence across our state, it is my honor to share with you the list of 21 students from Arizona’s High Schools and Universities who have been selected to represent our industry’s future and present their work at the AZBio Expo on May 30^th in the Student Discovery Zone sponsored by Northern Arizona University.   To see the list of students and their projects, please click here.

I hope you will be attending the AZBio Expo on May 30^th and will have the opportunity to visit the students in the Student Discovery Zone and to learn about their work and  to encourage them in their efforts.  (Some of these future leaders are now graduating and are ready to join your companies.  It is so important that we keep Arizona talent right here in Arizona.)

One last request.  If you , like so many of us, will be attending commencements across the state this May to congratulate graduates from Kindergarten through Doctorate Programs, please take a moment to seek out a teacher and thank them for what they do.  Together, we are building Arizona’s bioscience industry.  Through their efforts, they are shaping our future.

Have a great weekend and to all of our graduates, and the family members who helped them along their journey, CONGRATULATIONS!

Joan Koerber-Walker
President and CEO
Arizona BioIndustry Association
