Building a Life Sciences and Manufacturing Strategy at Discovery Park

One Nucleus and Discovery Park will be holding a joint event featuring updates from life science businesses and other stakeholders involved with Kent's life science community.

This event will look at the Park's strategic vision for future growth, including updates from tenants who are expanding their facilities on site and the opportunities this presents for discovering innovative medicines.    

It is great opportunity to learn about the evolution of the Park and how it can shape collaboration within our region and globally, as well as a chance to have a site tour and network with presenting organisations.
