Our strategic partners are organizations and industry leaders whose work aligns with iFAB’s mission and contributes to the growth and competitiveness of our region, as well as the biomanufacturing industry. Together, they reflect iFAB’s broader economic reach and the connections that extend our impact beyond the Tech Hub’s core geography of Champaign, Piatt, and Macon counties. Strategic partners may be located within or outside the iFAB region.
