Diversifying Your Talent

Growing and diversifying the pipeline of early talent.

Employment in the California biopharma industry has grown 13% in the last 5 years and projections show jobs continuing to be a key sector of opportunity in the state’s economy. The industry must identify and invest in new talent pipelines to meet this need.

Project Onramp is a tool for the Bay Area’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.
