The trip was the second visit by Gov. Beshear to Japan and first visit to China as Governor.<br> &nbsp;<br> In the past two decades, the Far East has become a source of thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in investment for Kentucky. A September 2009 report on Japanese Investment in Kentucky shows 154 facilities accounting for 37,358 total jobs.&nbsp; The trip was intended to further cultivate that relationship and explore additional economic opportunities.<br> &nbsp;<br> &quot;Given the state of the national economy, trips and investments such as this one are even more important, particularly if we want to expand our economy in the future,&quot; said Gov. Beshear. &quot;Asia is a vibrant market filled with companies investing in high-tech and manufacturing interests. They have long looked at Kentucky as a place to invest and trade, and we want to build on that.&quot;<br> &nbsp;<br> Following Japan, Gov. and Mrs. Beshear and Secretary Hayes departed for China on a trade-related visit.&nbsp; Since opening the Kentucky China Trade Center in Beijing in 2006, the Commonwealth has worked to develop long-term relationships with Chinese government officials and business leaders.&nbsp; <br> &nbsp;<br> During the trip, the Kentucky delegation met with many of these representatives to discuss opportunities for increased cooperation. China today represents one of the fastest growing economies in the world and is a leading trade and economic partner for the United States.<br> &nbsp;<br> &quot;It's critical that Kentucky have an important role as our country develops even closer ties to China. We have a strong foothold in this country now. That role and that relationship need to expand significantly in the coming years,&quot; Gov. Beshear said. &quot;The only way to do that is by cultivating personal relationships with governmental and business leaders face-to-face and one-on-one.&quot;<br> &nbsp;<br> Additionally, the Governor and First Lady brought attention to the 1-Year Countdown to the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games, which are being held in Lexington, Ky., Sept. 25-Oct. 10, 2010.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></span><span style='mso-bookmark:"LETTER\.BLOCK12"'><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";

color:black'>Gov. Steve Beshear recently joined state and local officials to mark the opening of a life science accelerator building that provides offices and laboratory space for start-up biotechnology companies developing anti-cancer drugs, genetic tests and medical instruments. <br> &nbsp;<br> The building will also serve as the new U.S. headquarters for bioLOGIC Corporation, a global life science accelerator company with offices worldwide.&nbsp; bioLOGIC, one of the owners of the facility, has already helped bring several biotech companies to Kentucky.<br> &nbsp;<br> During the event, Gov. Beshear also announced that one of bioLOGIC's resident companies, PHD Diagnostics, is launching a new genetic test, marketed as Respiragene"!, which can identify smokers and ex-smokers who are at greatest risk of developing lung cancer. <br> &nbsp;<br> PHD's subsidiary, Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory, will be the only lab in the nation processing these tests in which technicians extract DNA from cells and scientists then analyze specific sets of genetic markers to determine that individual's likelihood of developing lung cancer.<br> &nbsp;<br> &quot;It is rewarding to see the state's investment in these companies pay off through the creation of marketable products and services, and high-paying jobs for people in Northern Kentucky,&quot; said Gov. Beshear. &nbsp;&quot;Our ability to attract global companies, such as bioLOGIC Corporation, to locate their headquarters in Kentucky is proof that our new economic development programs allow us to compete with any other state in the nation.&quot;<br> &nbsp;<br> Other resident companies in the bioLOGIC building include Bexion Pharmaceuticals, which is developing anti-cancer drugs; NeoCytex Biopharma, which is researching drugs for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease; PureWater, whose technology can help provide affordable clean water for households in developing countries; PrimeDP, a drug development company; and BotanoVation, a company developing over-the-counter natural health products.<br> &nbsp;<br> &quot;We're happy to develop Northern Kentucky's first life science accelerator and create a home for high-tech small businesses that are competing and succeeding in the global biotech field,&quot; said Nigel Ferrey, one of the founding partners of bioLOGIC. &quot;The ribbon cutting for bioLOGIC and its resident companies signals that Covington is now home to a world-class biotech cluster.&quot; <br> &nbsp;<br> The Kentucky Cabinet for Economic Development, through its Department of Commercialization and Innovation, has provided funding to help support three of bioLOGIC's residents: PHD Diagnostics, Bexion Pharmaceuticals, and NeoCytex BioPharma.&nbsp;<br> </span></span><span style='mso-bookmark:"LETTER\.BLOCK28"'><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#003A63'></img>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></span></p> </div> </td> <span style='mso-bookmark:"LETTER\.BLOCK28"'></span> </tr> </table> <p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:"LETTER\.BLOCK28"'><span style='display:none;mso-hide:all'><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></span></p> <table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%;mso-cellspacing:0in;background:#EEB053;
