Something like this is already being done. Indiebio just launched in SF and they are doing great work at bringing in pot-doc chemists and biochemists and de-risking their academic work and turning them companies.

Disclaimer, my company Pembient is in the first class.

Ah, that's perfect; the idea is validated. Time to start a competitor in other bio hubs. =)

There are already many well-established biotech accelerators/incubators in Boston (Lab Central, PureTech Ventures, Third Rock Ventures, Flagship Ventures, Atlas Venture, etc.), Seattle (Accelerator Corporation; also in NYC), NYC (Harlem Biospace), and San Diego/Montreal/Vancouver (Inception Sciences).
