UK LIFE SCIENCES DISCOVERING TODAY, TRANSFORMING TOMORROW
T
he UK has a world-leading science base and a strong position in manufacturing. In addition, the country has the opportunity to be the world’s leading centre for understanding, treating and advancing care for patients with
chronic disease. However, this opportunity comes at a time when companies are
finding it harder to create value through commercialising innovation. While this is a global phenomenon, the UK also recognises that it needs to address a number of challenges of its own. This is why the country is taking urgent action to ensure that
the whole environment for innovation - tax and funding incentives, access to finance, and the culture of adoption in the NHS - is similarly world-class. This supplement aims to outline these strategies and introduce
the UK’s ideas for taking the lead globally, working closely with industry, to ensure that the UK is a world-class centre for discovery, development, manufacture and adoption of medical innovations.
