One life science cluster, two national life science strategies and three regions
To discuss how to ensure the competitiveness of our region in a globalized world, Medicon Valley Alliance has the pleasure of inviting you to an afternoon with inspirational regional, national and international speakers.
The topics of this years Annual Meeting will be:
- How do we make the most of our unique position as the leading life science and healthcare cluster of the Nordics?
- What are our strongholds, unique selling points and must-win battles now and in the future?
- How do we realize the full potential of Medicon Valley and ensure that national Nordic life science strategies are aligned, coherent and forward-looking from a regional, national and global perspective?
We are looking forward to seeing new and old members, partners and other Medicon Valley stakeholders for an afternoon of discussion and networking.
