The University of New Hampshire at Manchester has been awarded $10 million to lead workforce development efforts within the ReGen Valley Tech Hub, an initiative aimed at establishing Southern New Hampshire as a global leader in biofabrication. Backed by funding from the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration, this initiative will drive innovation in regenerative medicine while addressing critical workforce needs through the creation of the ReGen Valley Common Campus.
The ReGen Valley Tech Hub, led by the Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute (ARMI), will focus on fostering innovation and advancing commercialization efforts in biofabrication—an emerging industry that merges biotechnology with advanced manufacturing to revolutionize healthcare. UNH Manchester will play a key role in building a robust talent pipeline to support the growing biofabrication sector, ensuring the region’s workforce is equipped to meet the demands of this cutting-edge industry.
“The ReGen Valley Tech Hub represents a tremendous opportunity for UNH to leverage its expertise in education and workforce development to benefit both our students and the state,” UNH President Elizabeth Chilton said. “This initiative will provide our students with unparalleled opportunities in an industry that is poised to revolutionize healthcare and strengthen the local economy.”
