For Life Science clusters to develop into effective ecosystems all stakeholders whether public or private have key roles to play. Recent announcements in Indiana, where Eli Lilly & Company have committed to investing $4.5Bn to expanding their R&D footprint with the creation of the Lilly Medicine Foundry due to open in 2027. This after already having announced $9Bn of investment in the region earlier in 2024. The UK has long been felt by many to be a leading Life Science cluster primed for scaling up. With the visit of David Rosenberg, Secretary of Commerce for Indiana to London, Mathys & Squire are generously hosting this traditional Genesis Fringe curtain-raiser where speakers will discuss what it takes to grow a World class Life Science ecosystem competitive in the discovery, manufacture and commercialisation of innovative medicines.
