About the MetroWest Life Sciences Network The MetroWest Life Sciences Network is a collaboration of biotech, pharma, and life sciences-based businesses, municipal officials, and economic and business development organizations located in the west suburban region of Boston, Massachusetts. The group’s primary focus is to foster awareness of, and professional networking opportunities among, the MetroWest region’s scientific and entrepreneurial ecosystem. Through social and professional networking and programs and through collaboration and advocacy for economic and business development incentives, including public sector investments in local, industry-supporting infrastructure, the MWLSN provides a unified voice for a life sciences cluster that enjoys lower operating costs, easier access, and significant opportunities for life sciences business growth relative to the Boston/Cambridge market.
