Life Sciences & Health Innovation

Discovery is the easy part.

Turn British discovery and NHS-scale clinical evidence into British medicines, devices and health companies

The answer

Turn British discovery and NHS-scale clinical evidence into British medicines, devices and health companies.

  • Health innovation is one of the few sectors where Britain holds genuine global research leadership.
  • The NHS is a clinical evidence asset few countries can match, if it can be used without compromising patients or trust.
  • Value currently leaves the country at the licensing stage rather than the discovery stage.

What Britain already has

Research base

  • University of Cambridge
  • University of Oxford
  • Imperial College London
  • University of Manchester

Infrastructure recorded

  • Wet and dry laboratory space
  • Biologics and device manufacturing at scale
  • Clinical trial and adoption pathways
  • Secure clinical data environments

What Britain is genuinely good at

  • Cambridge Biomedical Campus
  • Oxford's clinical research base

The digital campus

Life Sciences & Health Innovation in Britain, as it stands today.

Britain discovers at world level and commercialises below it. The mission is the route from discovery to manufactured product, clinical adoption, retained ownership and export.

Every line below is a record with a date. Where UKIZ holds nothing, it says so rather than filling the space.
