In 2021, the UK Government unveiled its ambitious plan to transform the country into a "science superpower" by the end of the decade, with a particular emphasis on prioritizing funding for the life sciences sector. This move has generated enormous opportunities for stakeholders in healthcare and life sciences, ranging from startups to established players and property designers and developers. Rebecca Mortimore, the Director and Science Sector Co-Lead at engineering company Ramboll, emphasizes that life sciences play a crucial role in advancing healthcare technologies and medicines. However, a critical concern for the future of the UK life sciences sector revolves around space—having the right type and scale of facilities in suitable locations.
