”I think the UK and this region are perfect partners and I would like to see even greater cooperation. I am, therefore, delighted to announce today the establishment of the UK-MVA Challenge Programme. This initiative aims to encourage and facilitate greater co-operation between the UK and the Öresund region in core biotechnology areas such as research and industry. The Challenge Programme seeks to develop world class biotechnology. ..” Lord Sainsbury, UK Minister of Research and Innovation (Oct. 2004)
Changed dynamics • Regional integration Denmark - Sweden • Researchers/ infrastructure /tech transfer/ investments • Sectorial integration Academia- Hospital- Industry • Increased research funding (regional, Nordic, EC) • Increased awareness of research & innovation
Changed dynamics • Increased investments, seed and venture capital for start-up companies (E&Y 2004) • New companies and knowledge intensive jobs • Increased internationalization incl.regional exchange with the UK • International companies established in the region (e.g. Biogen Idec)
