F3 Tech to Lead Maryland BioMADE Biomanufacturing Facility Proposal

EASTON, MD, UNITED STATES, February 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- F3 Tech, in collaboration with the Maryland Department of Commerce, will lead the development of a multi-site $40 million proposal for the construction of a multi-user biomanufacturing facility that will support critical bioindustrial manufacturing infrastructure through the Department of Defenses’ BioMADE program.

The Maryland Department of Commerce has asked F3 Tech to identify and attract an industry anchor, as well as academic and economic development partners to develop a future site and business plan. The proposed multi-user facility will support the development of bioindustrial manufacturing technologies that align with the priorities set forth by BioMADE.

“This opportunity represents the culmination of a decade of F3 Tech’s work to advance and diversify the biotechnology economy in Maryland”, said Mike Thielke, the Executive Director of F3 Tech. “The construction of this proposed facility, in proximity to the nation’s capital, and in collaboration with the United States Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Center in Beltsville, represents an opportunity to enhance federal regulatory involvement with new technologies,” said Thielke.
