Empire State Development announces new plant, jobs coming to Monroe County
February 25, 2020
Dozens of new jobs are coming to Monroe County with a new development at the Eastman Business Park. A bio-performance company will build a pilot plant at the Eastman Business Park. The new project with GreenLight Biosciences will bring 30 new jobs to the area and will cost over $16 million to implement. The pilot plant will enable GreenLight to bring GreenWorX — a cell-free biomanufacturing process, to produce low-cost, high quality RNA. RNA is a natural molecule found in all living organisms that facilitates virtually every biological process of life.
