Last January, BioDimensions held two public meetings to discuss what “green jobs” might be in the Mid-South.
This week, a study sponsored by the Memphis BioWorks Foundation suggested the answer was in bioprocessing.
The study found that a bioeconomy could support more than 25,000 green jobs in the next decade, and more than 50,000 in the next two decades, in the Mid-South Mississippi Delta, a region encompassing parts of Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee.
