Research Triangle Park (RTP) & the Triangle Biotech Cluster
Leads2Starts replied to DanRNC's topic in The NC Triangle
Here's the quote that led me to this statement. From ABC 11's report on the potential deal: "[They] are planning to do a Billion dollars in research...For every $1 million of research that creates 32 jobs," he said. "A billion [dollars] creates 32000." Regardless, it would be awesome news for the triangle. -

Sure would. Again, those jobs wouldn't all be in HS. Lot's of them wouldn't even be in NC. But, there's no doubt that HS would start to look a lot like Cary. Good news for residents' property value, I guess. They are also entertaining a proposal to turn the current proposed landfill site into a Southpointe-like shopping mall. -

The info I read indicated over a billion dollars in research from this Roche Tamiflu plant, which equates to around 32,000 jobs. They obviously won't all be in Holly Springs, and most won't even be jobs working FOR Roche, but don't make the mistake of thinking that this won't make that town blow up. They've (Wake County) already misteriously halted the landfill decision about 8-10 days after Roche started talks with Holly Springs officials.
