Westchester County Association

The Westchester County Association (WCA) is a leading economic development and business advocacy organization serving Westchester County and the surrounding Hudson Valley region. While not a drug developer, the WCA is a central figure in the regional healthcare and life sciences ecosystem, advocating for the growth of the local biotech cluster. The organization manages the Healthcare Talent Pipeline Program, which connects healthcare providers with trained workers to address critical staffing shortages. Through strategic partnerships with major health systems, academic institutions, and pharmaceutical companies like Regeneron, the WCA drives policy and economic initiatives that support the life sciences industry. Its work focuses on professional networking, workforce development, and legislative advocacy to maintain the region's competitiveness in the healthcare sector.
