Priority Sector Report : Life Science
Executive summary
• In this report, Life Science industries are defined as the combination of three sectors: Biotech, Medical Devices, and Pharmaceuticals.
• In 2007, the European Life Science industries employed a total of 1.31 million persons.
• Life Science industries in Europe exhibited a strong employment growth in the period 2002-2007, especially in regions less specialised in Life Science.
• Non-capital regions, such as Brabant Wallon (NL), Nordwestschweiz (CH), and Freiburg (DE), display the highest specialisation in Life Science industries, but the largest number of Life Science employees are found in the most populous regions
• Life Science industries display only a moderate regional concentration compared to other clustered sectors.
• E-health is an emerging industry expected to have a strong growth potential in the next few years. Fast progress in technological development and available infrastructures are two factors supporting the emergence of clusters in this field.
• Nanomedicine, in comparison, is yet less developed, but is considered a priority for most EU countries. Strong public support for the sector has promoted rapid development over the last five years.
• Networks of cluster initiatives have become a widespread approach to the expansion of Life Science industries. The aim of such networks is to achieve synergies through the combination of complementary specialities of the network members. Several national as well as trans-national networks are operative.
