BioSTL is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit based in St. Louis, Missouri. Founded as the St. Louis Coalition for Plant and Life Sciences [1]in 2001, the organization was renamed BioSTL in 2011. Washington University in St. Louis, BJC HealthCare, and the St. Louis Life Sciences Project committed $30 million to create a bioscience ecosystem in St. Louis[2] that capitalized on university research, developed new businesses, and commercialized new products.

Overview

BioSTL is a backbone organization[3] for St. Louis’ innovation and startup community. It invests in startups, coaches entrepreneurs, recruits international companies, builds physical infrastructure, and provides programs to build a diverse and inclusive workforce.

Leadership

Donn Rubin has served as President & CEO of BioSTL since its establishment in 2011. BioSTL Founding Chairman Dr. William H. Danforth III[4] and Chairman of the Board John McDonnell convene a coalition[5] of academic, civic, philanthropic, and scientific leaders that guide research and entrepreneurship[6], economic development, and commercial ventures.

Activities

BioSTL and its initiatives provide grants, investments, and training, summarized below.

BioGenerator

The investment arm[7] of BioSTL creates, grows and invests in new companies and entrepreneurs[8]. BioGenerator derisks commercially viable innovations; recruits and advises leadership teams; makes staged investments grounded in due diligence; and grants free access to the BioGenerator wet lab space and research equipment.

GlobalSTL

BioSTL’s international initiative[9] recruits high-growth-potential companies that bring competitive advantage to complementary local industries in food/agriculture technology[10] and health care, cyber security, and financial and industrial technologies. It uses a targeted approach to give local companies access to innovative global technology.[11]

The annual GlobalSTL Health Innovation Summit brings international digital health care companies to St. Louis to connect with new customers in the industries of health care systems, payers, and pharmacy benefit management.[12][13]

Inclusion

BioSTL’s Inclusion Initiative programming promotes equity and inclusion by identifying high-potential women and minority entrepreneurs and providing a systematic pathway for them to create viable, high-growth ventures. With funding from the Ewing Marion Kauffmann Foundation, BioSTL’s Inclusion Initiative also aligns partner organizations to build systems of race and gender equity within St. Louis’ tech-based entrepreneurship ecosystem.[14]

  • Entrepreneur Development: BioSTL’s programming for entrepreneurs provides one-on-one business learning experience, including entrepreneurial coaching and resources for company founders from both academic and industrial communities. There is no cost for participants. Entrepreneurs learn to create a viable business and financial model; recognize, recruit and retain talent for a company; incorporate and register a business; and compete for national non-dilutive grants.[15]
  • Capital Attraction: BioSTL grows seed and venture capital accessible to startups in the St. Louis region. The organization catalyzes the creation of new local funds and recruits new investor groups both nationally and internationally.[16] BioSTL also connects startups to potential investors and coaches entrepreneurs to be fundraisers, both for venture capital and federal grants.
  • Public Policy: BioSTL co-founded the Innovation Advocacy Council, a group of technology-based economic development organizations that advocates for public policies that are friendly to science, innovation, and entrepreneurship.[17]

History

In 2001 William H. Danforth III[18], who served as Chancellor of Washington University in St. Louis from 1971 through 1995, founded the Coalition for Plant and Life Sciences (called BioSTL as of 2011). Danforth assembled leaders within academia, business, and philanthropy, to expand the St. Louis innovation economy through a multi-faceted, holistic approach,[19] including commercialization, startup creation, investment capital, trained entrepreneurs, physical infrastructure, and strong public policy.[20][21]

In 2002, Danforth convened the leaders of anchor institutions – Washington University in St. Louis, Saint Louis University, University of Missouri - St. Louis, and BJC HealthCare – to establish a shared vision and assemble resources to launch a locus of innovation activity, which resulted in the Cortex Innovation Community.[22][23]

BioGenerator, BioSTL’s investment arm, was launched in 2003 to transform ideas into investable bioscience startups.[24][25] In 2010, BioGenerator Labs opened a shared wet research lab space[26] for bioscience innovators to prove and develop their concepts.

Later, BioSTL added initiatives in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, as well as global connectedness. Its GlobalSTL arm seeks to bring competitive advantage to St. Louis companies, especially those in the fields of health care, agriculture, financial tech, and cyber security.[27]

In 2011, John F. McDonnell, who led the establishment and growth of BioGenerator from its beginning, succeeded Danforth as Chairman of BioSTL and the BioSTL Coalition of regional leaders.
