Life Science Global View Reduction in size of Large Pharma but industry Growth …but healthcare related employment predicted to be largest growth sector in US …therefore this increase in employment must come from elsewhere: EU data indicates a 4% increase in employees in biotech (2010-2011) to a total of 48,330 US data indicates a 5% increase in biotech (2010-2011) to a total of 98,560 (E&Y) Continued economic downturn and increasing uncertainty Move towards outsourcing and partnering convergence, with further integration between drugs and devices use of IT to accelerate discovery and drive down costs emphasis on search for alternative uses for existing approved drugs collaboration opportunities as larger companies look to bolster pipelines.

Life Sciences UK View LS sector still key for economic growth in US, Europe, UK and Scotland - Employment is growing in Scotland in the LS sector (18.1% 2010-2011) Bio-campuses are developing in the UK (Cambridge and Nottingham) and Europe (Eindhoven) - it is important that we consolidate the lead we have established. R&D intensive teams and businesses are wanting to work collaboratively, particularly with innovative academics and SMEs. Inward investment drawn to ‘honey pot’ of excellent academic research, world class clinical facilities and a diverse cluster of innovative growing companies. Market research indicates growing companies are looking for flexible, high quality, turnkey accommodation. (Access to finance, good transport links and quality ancillary development is considered important.)
