The Partnership has expanded beyond the original team and has built relationships with organizations that provide industry and philanthropic support. In addition to a partnership with the State of Minnesota, it has broadened to form partnerships with LifeScience Alley and The BioBusiness Alliance of Minnesota, Medica Foundation, IBM, and the Hormel Institute.
