Hyderabad’s globally celebrated organised Life Sciences clump Genome Valley present is location to India’s archetypal single-use bioprocess plan and scale-up facility.
Conceptualised by Telangana authorities done Telangana Lifesciences (TGLS) successful collaboration with Telangana Industrial Infrastructure Corporation and Union government’s Department of Biotechnology, the caller installation seeks to beryllium a solution to the situation of entree to affordable and predictable scale-up infrastructure.
The caller facility, 1 Bio, volition supply end-to-end process improvement and pilot-scale validation enabling start-ups arsenic good arsenic established companies to trim superior concern and accelerate improvement timelines. It reinforces the State government’s imaginativeness of positioning Genome Valley arsenic a world-class centre for probe and development-led biotech innovation and advancing India’s biologics and next-generation therapeutics capabilities, TGLS said aft Minister for Industries and IT D.Sridhar Babu opened the installation connected Monday.
Gateway structure
The Minister, who besides launched a caller logo and the plan of a gateway operation for Genome Valley to commemorate 25 years of the Life Sciences cluster, said Telangana is eyeing ₹1 lakh crore investments successful Life Sciences by 2030.

1 Bio is built connected a 2-acre field and astatine its core, the bio pharma hub features a single-use bioprocess improvement and scale-up facility, with bioreactors up to 500 litre, precocious upstream and downstream systems and a dedicated analytical suite. It houses 1.50 lakh sq ft of plug-and-play R&D labs, configurable innovation suites, shared analytical spaces equipped with precocious analytical systems and dedicated bioprocess grooming labs.
Thermo Fisher centre
A bioprocess plan centre developed successful concern with Thermo Fisher Scientific with a oculus connected positioning Telangana astatine the forefront of GLP- and GMP-grade biomolecule improvement for India and the satellite was opened by the Minister astatine 1 Bio successful the beingness of the firm’s enforcement V-P Fred Lowery and planetary enactment team.
The State, done a PPP model, has enabled concern of ₹150 crore successful halfway infrastructure, portion Thermo Fisher has contributed ₹90 crore towards the bioprocess plan centre and its co-located lawsuit acquisition centre wrong Genome Valley. 1 Bio is expected to pull an further ₹ 500 crore successful backstage concern from tenant companies and make implicit 500 high-quality jobs.
