Diversifying Your Talent

Growing and diversifying the pipeline of early talent.

Pennsylvania’s life sciences ecosystem is a key driver in the Commonwealth’s economy and provides more than 100,000 direct, family-sustaining jobs to Pennsylvanians. With the promise of cell & gene therapy largely centered right in Philadelphia, the industry must identify and invest in new talent pipelines to continue to grow.

Project Onramp is a tool for Philadelphia’s life science companies to ensure they tap a local source of diverse talent as they grow. Interns not only mean more people power for your organization, they bring a fresh perspective to your work and offer existing employees an opportunity to serve as mentors.

Filling some of your available internships through Project Onramp is an investment in our industry’s future.

Our Interns

Philadelphia native Alain Santo Domingo, a Temple University Owl, spent the summer interning at GSK’s Upper Merion site. His engineering experiences at Temple – designing and testing force sensors and using EMG signals to control robotics – as well as his college-prep work with Project Onramp partner Heights Philadelphia -helped him shine during the interview process.
