In addition to our 10 stakeholder institutions, KCALSI works with a group of strategic partners that helped to plan, launch and implement our region’s life sciences initiative.

Key members of this group include:

• Civic Council of Greater Kansas City
• Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce
• Greater Kansas City Community Foundation
• Kansas City Area Development Council
• KC Animal Health Corridor

Also, through participation on their boards and selected programs, KCALSI actively supports the vision, programs and mission of:

• The Center for Animal Health Innovation
• Kansas Bioscience Authority
• Kansas Bioscience Organization
• Missouri Biotechnology Association
• Missouri Technology Corporation
• SySTEMIC Innovations

KCALSI’s work with its strategic partners has led to increased national exposure and credibility which has attracted a number of new life sciences companies to the Kansas City region.
