BRF CHAIRMAN & PRESIDENT MESSAGE

HONORING HORACE R. LADYMON

John F. George Jr., M.D. BRF President and CEO

Malcolm S. Murchison BRF Board of Directors Chairman

As you will read in this Annual Report, BRF has been busy this year, delivering on its mission to diversify and grow our region’s economy to create a better future for North Louisiana.

Together with our board of 40 dedicated volunteers, administrators, directors and over 3,300 employees, we have grown our employment base, created local jobs, strengthened this region’s entrepreneurship ecosystem, and expanded healthcare offerings and access, to name a few accomplishments.

These accomplishments would not be possible without each of you, our supporters, volunteers and talented staff members. Thank you for your dedication to each achievable goal that sets the stage for continued progress in coming generations.

Last year, we announced our official rebranding as BRF, to mark our evolution as an enterprise to include an expanded and diversified portfolio of high-growth initiatives. This year and for years to come, our mission to diversify and grow our region’s economy will guide us as we grow into our tagline, “Building our Region’s Future.”

Malcolm S. Murchison BRF Board of Directors Chairman

John F. George Jr., M.D. BRF President and CEO

01 BUILDING OUR REGION’S FUTURE

MISSION Diversify and grow our region’s economy.

VISION Operate as a catalyst to expand and develop research, entrepreneurship and high-growth businesses in our region.

VALUES Innovation. Collaboration. Problem Solving. Bold Action.

OUR UNIQUE VALUEBRF delivers innovative, successful and high-growth economic development initiatives by retaining professionals with a broad range of core skills, acquiring project-specific expertise and talent, and nurturing and leveraging its wide array of political and community connections.

A study commissioned by Shreveport community leaders in 1984 sought to determine how “to develop the economy of the Shreveport area to its maximum potential.” Study results included a recommendation to form an organization whose efforts would expand the research and innovation base in North Louisiana to grow the area’s economy.

A $60,000 grant helped to form the Biomedical Research Foundation in 1986.

Horace Ladymon, Chairman of the Board of Beall-Ladymon Corporation with General Offices located in Shreveport, agreed to serve as the Foundation’s first volunteer Chairman of the Board. Under Mr. Ladymon’s leadership, the

Foundation formed a board, filed articles of incorporation, initiated the process of hiring an executive director, and began the significant task of transforming an idea into a working entity.

Mr. Ladymon’s business acumen, belief in the Foundation’s mission, and commitment to the increased well-being of Shreveport and all of North Louisiana established a firm footing for the Foundation’s operations.

The BRF Board recognizes the importance of Mr. Ladymon’s efforts and is pleased to recognize him in perpetuity as a BRF Honorary Board Member.

BRF TODAY

VITAL TO NORTH LOUISIANA CITIZENS AND ECONOMY

UNIVERSITY HEALTH


University Health System (UHS) began its year with the announcement of the system’s new Chief Executive Officer, Daniel J. Snyder, who replaced interim CEO Richard Cascio. With three years of transition from a public to a private health system behind it, UHS is moving forward with identified strategic objectives to accomplish over the next five years.

As UHS looks ahead to its long-term goals, it continues to expand service lines, add programs, and increase access to specialized medicine as well as leading technology and treatments offered in partnership with LSU Health Shreveport.

In 2017, the community and state learned exactly how vital this

regional health system is to our economy and to the population it exists to serve. Noted economist Dr. Loren Scott’s UHS economic impact study revealed the hospital system was responsible for a $900 million positive boost to the State’s budget since privatization, and was responsible for a ripple effect that included $1 billion in new local sales, thousands of jobs, and millions in household earnings and local government treasuries.

This impact is also measured in the significant improvements made to patient care in North Louisiana that drastically reduced wait times, expanded lifesaving services, and efficiency gains that created a much-improved patient experience and better patient outcomes.


In conjunction with leadership of LSU Health Shreveport and University Health System’s new CEO, Daniel J. Snyder, UHS developed the Enterprise Strategy Map (ESM) to provide strategic direction and goals for the system over the next five years; and developed a balanced score card that establishes annual goals for the system in the areas of People, Quality, Service, Finance and Growth.

INTERTECH SCIENCE PARKRECLAIMING BROWNFIELDS, SUPPORTING NEW GROWTH & INNOVATION


BRF’s InterTech Science Park, which spans 800 acres in a former industrial area of Shreveport, is home to high-tech companies, highly specialized laboratories, healthcare facilities, startups and more.

Thirty tenants, who represent a diverse range of initiatives related to technology, are supported in part by BRF. The Science Park’s footprint in the Kings Highway/Mansfield Road area of Shreveport expanded again this year as BRF took on the former Sklar & Phillips Oil Company’s 1.85-acre property near BRF’s InterTech 1 headquarters building.

Once home to a prominent oil and gas business, the Sklar & Phillips property was donated to the LSU Health Sciences Foundation and then purchased by BRF for future use in economic development and

technology initiatives. BRF worked with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality to remediate the Brownfields site, reclaiming more abandoned industrial square footage in a mission to transform the area into a corridor of growth in technology, research and healthcare.

Other moves within the InterTech Science Park included the repurposing of the former Moonbot Studios space to become the base for IT company Future State.

More than 75 of Future State’s 119 employees are based out of the repurposed space, and even more employees work out of the 11,500-square-foot suite part-time.

NLAF INVESTING IN NORTH LOUISIANA’S ECONOMIC FUTURE

FUTURE STATE MODERNIZING HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS

The New Louisiana Angel Fund 1 (NLAF 1), in the amount of $2.675 million, is nearing a close as funds are almost fully committed. Since January 2015, 53 accredited angel investors in North Louisiana have taken part in due diligence, pitch presentations and voting to dedicate this fund to 11 North Louisiana-based entrepreneurs and startups.

BRF founded NLAF 1 to fuel the startup ecosystem that is developing locally, and as a means to diversify the region’s economy while providing investors a potential Return on Investment (ROI) and high-growth startup companies the funding needed to launch locally.

Investors whose dollars could have gone to other communities and into other opportunities stayed in North Louisiana and, in some cases, drew more investment in startups from other regions to contribute to the local economy.

With NLAF 1’s investment rounds coming to a close, fundraising for NLAF 2 is in full swing.

Future State is BRF’s newest initiative, formed in 2016.

Along with serving all of University Health Shreveport and Monroe’s IT and Electronic Medical Record (EMR) needs, Future State was set up to seek new business relationships within the healthcare community. Future State supports its mission by providing access to its EPIC Healthcare Platform and expertise to small hospitals, clinics and physician practices, advancing healthcare technology in the

community and the state while contributing to job growth in North Louisiana.

Future State offers its services through its brand, EMR Everywhere, with a goal to provide healthcare entities with an affordable, technologically advanced electronic healthcare system.

Since its recent formation, Future State has been positioning itself to offer its platform to the entire community of North Louisiana and beyond.

In reflecting back on 20 years of the Science and Medicine Academic Research Training (SMART) Program, the program’s coordinators received testimonials from past students who went on to pursue education in the sciences and achieved careers in related fields.

With the foundation of real laboratory experience and learning, SMART graduates have attended such prestigious institutions as Yale and Princeton, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and, locally, Louisiana State University Shreveport.

SMART graduates have established

careers in the fields of biomedical engineering, pediatrics, biology, medicine and more. SMART welcomed its twenty-first class in April.

Another of BRF’s EdVentures initiatives, Biotech Magnet Academy, grew enrollment while bucking trends for minorities in science.

Half of the academy’s students in 2016–2017 were African-American females, an impressive metric considering current studies which show that the demographic makes up just two percent of the science and engineering employment base.

EdVentures’ SMART Program held its annual graduation luncheon where the program marked its 200th student to have gone through SMART, an 11-month intensive research-immersion training program in which students are paired with LSU Health scientists during their senior year in high school.

Biotech Magnet Academy students earned $746,418 in scholarships to pursue higher education under the direction of program administrators.


Although over 70 percent of Biotech Magnet Academy students are first-generation college bound, 97 percent of its 2017 graduates are attending a higher-education institution.

Biotech Magnet Academy students attended a BRF-sponsored field trip to see the biographical drama “Hidden Figures,” which highlighted African-American women’s roles in science. Biotech Magnet Academy’s enrollment for 2016 – 2017 was 50 percent African-American females.

The FRC Robotics Team at Southwood High School competed in qualifying rounds at the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Bayou Regional Tournament.
