Discussion with the Minister of MESTECC
Earlier on 6th September, the CSSB management team met with YB Yeo Bee Yin, Minister of Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change at MESTECC office, Putrajaya. The meeting focused on the potential collaboration of the development of a Biotechnology Accelerator Centre (BAC), which is the catalyst of the Selangor Bio Bay project.
Ideally, BAC offers a shared facilities concept with flexible laboratory and common facilities arrangement using modular designs. This is to facilitate academic-industry partnership by having universities to conduct relevant research in the field of biotechnology.
