UT Austin and partners launch consortium to fight COVID-19
A group of more than 50 organizations has formed the Texas Global Health Security Innovation Consortium (TEXGHS) to coordinate efforts to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 and future pandemics by supporting innovators working toward pandemic readiness, response, recovery and resiliency.
The initial focus of the consortium is the coordination of current resources in the Austin innovation ecosystem, and that will be followed by a statewide expansion to develop additional capacity to expedite research, development, commercialization, workforce development and manufacturing at the intersection of health security and technology.
