The Johnson and Johnson Innovation program is an initiative that has built six life science focused accelerators around the country. These accelerators, called JLabs (http://jlabs.jnjinnovation.com/), look to give fledgling life science companies a chance by giving them access to office space and wet lab facilities that only large, established companies generally have access to.

The Johnson and Johnson Innovation program is an initiative that has built six life science focused accelerators around the country. These accelerators, called [http://jlabs.jnjinnovation.com/ JLabs], look to give fledgling life science companies a chance by giving them access to office space and wet lab facilities that only large, established companies generally have access to.
=JLabs Locations=
===San Diego===
===Toronto===
Labs @ Toronto was the first JLABS to open outside the United States. These facilities are home to over 100 early-stage companies advancing pharmaceutical, medical device, consumer and digital health programs. JLABS @ Toronto will be located at MaRS, occupying one floor of the West Tower and is a collaboration among Johnson & Johnson Innovation, The University of Toronto, MaRS Discovery District, Janssen Inc., MaRS Innovation, and the Government of Ontario. Scheduled to open Spring 2016, the 40,000-square foot facility will include cutting-edge, modular and scalable lab space, state-of-the-art equipment, with access to scientific, industry and capital funding experts. The space – which will be licensed to companies by U of T – will also feature JLABS' inaugural device and digital prototype lab that will provide entrepreneurs with access to highly specialized tools and skills building programs to design and develop smart health technologies.
===Texas Medical Center===
===LabCentral===
The first east coast establishment of JLabs in the Kendall Square biotech hub in Cambridge, Massachusetts, JLABS @ LabCentral will operate with the same open-innovation, no-strings attached approach as it does at all other JLABS locations. As a Founding Sponsor of LabCentral, Johnson & Johnson Innovation selects high-potential innovators for the shared-laboratory space who are focused on promising science that addresses important unmet medical needs. LabCentral is a nonprofit organization, designed to be a “one-stop-shop,” offering premier, fully equipped laboratory space, plus the infrastructure and support that emerging life sciences companies need to transition from a science/technology-focus to a successful commercial-stage enterprise. As part of this agreement, Johnson & Johnson Innovation also has an on-site office to facilitate collaboration with other start-ups located at LabCentral.
