Mann Biomedical Park

Biotechnology pioneer Alfred Mann has acquired almost half of a 377-acre former Lockheed aerospace research facility at Rye Canyon in Valencia for a project called Mann Biomedical Park, boosting the Santa Clarita Valley's reputation as an emerging biotech center. The new biomedical park will be designed to accommodate other Mann companies in addition to one called Advanced Bionics that already occupies space at Rye Canyon, said John DelRusso, director of facilities for Advanced Bionics.
