Topeka, KS
Topeka is the capital city of the State of Kansas and the seat of Shawnee County. Determined to be a national competitor in the bioscience arena, the Kansas Legislature overwhelming passed the Kansas Economic Growth Act (KEGA), which provides support for the bioscience industry. A funding mechanism in KEGA is expected to generate over $500 million over the next 10 to 15 years. These funds may be utilized to develop the bioscience research-to-development continuum, drive the commercialization of bioscience discoveries, and support the growth of the biosciences industry base. Government workers make up one out of every five employed persons in the city.
