Panel Discussions: Creating a Scientific Superpower

To become a scientific superpower we need to unleash the UK’s innovation ecosystem in a way that maximises the benefit for all stakeholders.

The government has set out a 10-year vision to make the UK a world leader in life sciences. But how do we build the partnerships that will make this happen?

The success of the Arc, and its science and technology sector, depends on Britain’s world-class skills base. But is enough being done to ensure the UK continues to train, attract and develop the best scientific talent?

These three sessions highlighted scientific advancements within the Arc that place the UK at the forefront of global innovation.

As one of the fastest-growing sectors in the UK, science and technology has proven its potential to turbocharge regional economies and create centres of success.

The UK science and technology market remains a hot prospect for investors from home and abroad.

The UK is home to world-leading innovation in life sciences, space, energy and future transport, yet support for our R&D sector lags our international competition.
