Murrieta Innovation Center to add second wet lab aimed at medical-technology startups
Summary
Economic development officials said the Murrieta Innovation Center will build a second wet lab (the county’s second public wet lab and the first in Southwest Riverside County) and will be able to support as many as 39 start-ups, focusing on higher-paying medical-technology jobs.
Scott Agajanian, Murrieta’s economic development director, said the Murrieta Innovation Center is expanding with a second wet lab intended to support medical-technology start-ups. He characterized the facility as the second wet lab in Riverside County available for public use and the first in Southwest Riverside County, saying the center could house up to 39 businesses when fully occupied.
Agajanian said the center aims to create quality local jobs and that completion is targeted for the 2026 timeframe with operations ramping afterward. He credited regional partners and the chamber for supporting the project but did not provide a full construction budget or a detailed funding breakdown in the address.
