Hudson Valley iCampus, the 207-acre premier life sciences, biomed, manufacturing/warehouse and office campus in Rockland County, N.Y., was featured in “Gateways to the North,” a webinar in a series focusing on the growth of the life sciences industry in the New York region.

“We’re proud to be recognized as a major force in the New York region’s growing life sciences and biotech industry,” said Jamie Schwartz, President of Hudson Valley iCampus. “We have created an environment that is conducive to innovation and ingenuity on our campus, as well as opportunities for long-term growth.”

The 90-minute webinar, held July 26, presented an overview of life sciences and biotech developments in Rockland and Westchester counties, and the Bronx. The series is hosted by NYC Builds Bio, a New York-based organization that works to support life sciences and commercial real estate development through events, research, reports and educational programs.

Hudson Valley iCampus is a 2-million-square-foot multi-tenanted property and features a collaborative atmosphere of innovation fostered by leaders in their respective industries including Pfizer, Sanofi, Auro Vaccines, Lead Cyber Solutions and Urban Electric Power. The campus is known for historic, breakthrough vaccines developed on the grounds including vaccines for smallpox, typhoid and polio. Pfizer conducted research and development for the Covid-19 vaccine in its laboratory space in Pearl River, and it recently announced plans to invest $470 million to expand vaccine research there. Pfizer leases space at Hudson Valley iCampus and also owns property contiguous to the campus.
