From
Minnesota, the Minneapolis Star Tribune (4/10, Moore) reports
that "the Twin Cities' cluster of medical device and life-sciences
companies slipped a notch in 2012, but the area continues its stronghold as a
medical device hot spot, according a recently released report." The
report, put together by the firm Jones Lang LaSalle, did not specify why
Minneapolis-St. Paul went from eighth to ninth place. Instead, it measured
"employment in high-tech research and in the hospital/medical fields, the
number of life sciences establishments, and the prevalence of National Institutes
of Health (NIH) and venture capital funding." The Star Tribune points out
that biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies are considered under the
life-sciences category in the report, as well as medical device companies.
While the Twin Cities has the latter (Medtronic, St. Jude Medical), it lacks
the former.
