By 2030, the UK aims to establish itself as a global science and technology superpower, a goal well within its reach. Home to two of the world’s top-five universities for life sciences and with a substantial share of European life-science start-ups, the UK is an extremely attractive market, with demand currently outstripping supply.
The UK government is also fully committed to the sector's development, having announced £200m of investment through the Life Sciences Investment Programme and, in the private sector, more than £9.5bn has been invested by venture capitalists over the past two years. It’s an exciting time to be in life sciences!
Watch our Construction News webinar in partnership with Property Week to hear perspectives from real estate investors, end users, developers and construction leaders as they dig deeper into market opportunities, the appetite for investment, upcoming growth corridors and forthcoming projects.
Over the course of the discussion, you will have the chance to learn from industry experts and pose your questions to them live.

- Exploring how R&D is attracting both public and private investment and where this is being spent.
- Unlocking development regions and creating successful science and innovation clusters.
- Important considerations for the design and construction of flexible buildings and highly bespoke lab space.
