Manitoba’s bioeconomy is strong. We operate in an industry of over 170 bioscience organizations. These organizations have generated $2.5 billion dollars into Manitoba’s economy and currently employ over 5,600 workers.
In our 2017 Industry Survey, we determined that Manitoba’s bioscience sector contributed to the economy through its high share of exports. 82% of our $2.5B in annual revenues are exports, directly increasing Manitoba’s GDP.
