Ranked 5th according to Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News1, the Maryland biohealth technology
cluster area is famous for being the first to map the

Introduction to Clusters
Industry clusters consist of industry-related entities like
companies, their suppliers, service providers, industry
incubators / accelerators, technological support, governmental agencies, and other institutions that provide
specialized training and education all of which are
concentrated in a specific location. These industry
clusters often are supported by state incentives such
as tax credits, subsidies and other aid. These clusters
provide infrastructure for both mature and early-stage
companies, which produce jobs, innovative products,
and important services to their surrounding communities, and throughout the world.
