Delivering the UK Life Sciences Strategy

Life sciences is one of the UK’s key strengths, with strong and innovative companies both large and small complementing a world-leading university research base. On 16th July 2025, the government published the Life Sciences Sector Plan, looking to drive both economic growth and health innovation in the NHS. That plan comes with some ambitious targets - aiming to make the UK the top life sciences economy in Europe by 2030, and third globally by 2035. To achieve this, the plan has some key areas for action. In this event, we will discuss how the UK life sciences sector and the research community can work with government to deliver this sector plan and reach those ambitious aims.

The event will be held in ARC West London, a brand new campus operated by ARC with life science laboratory and office space on the banks of the Thames at Hammersmith. We are delighted to be partnering with ARC on this event.
