Life sciences industry leaders and experts to share vision for future of Scotland's £10 billion sector

Scotland’s life sciences sector contributes billions to the economy but is not just a driver of economic growth - it is also a lever to improve health outcomes home and abroad.

Collaboration will be a central theme of The Scotsman Life Sciences Conference later this year - how, as the industry accelerates, private enterprise can work with the Scottish Government to grow the sector.

This year’s event is sponsored by Kadans Science Partner. A spokesperson for the firm said: “Scotland’s Life Sciences sector is recognised as both an economic growth driver and a lever to improve health, both in Scotland and worldwide.
