Come tour the ACC Bioscience Incubator (ABI) - Austin's only leasable wet lab space. In the over 8 years that ABI has been operational, we have incubated over 40 early-stage companies in the life science industry as well as supported ACC students with over 60 internships.

This tour is open to all and will briefly describe the history and operation of ABI. Gain insight into the commercialization pathway for biotechnology companies and see how ACC and ABI have driven innovation in the local life sciences ecosystem.

ABI offers early stage startups 24/7 access to affordable lab space with access to $1.6M in both everyday equipment, specialized instrumentation, cold storage, DI and RO water, robust electrical capacity and more.

Housed at the Austin Community College's Highland Campus, the ACC Bioscience Incubator shares close proximity to the University of Texas, major thoroughfares and is on the Capital Metro train route. In addition to enjoying the direct amenities of the incubator, the Highland Campus of Austin Community College was built as a renovation of the abandoned Highland Mall and boasts restaurants and coffee shops, a Manufacturing Incubator, a Fashion Incubator, an art gallery and theater and lots of beautiful outdoor space.
