Northern Ireland’s scientific presence

‘Northern Ireland (NI) is a prime location for Life & Health Sciences businesses, thanks to a unique combination of talented people, world-class research and strong links between industry, academia and clinicians, in the commercialisation of innovative research,’ as explained by the organisers of the Northern Ireland exhibits in Hall 16 Stand K11-1.

‘The region has a strong reputation within the sector, with expertise across a range of specialties that include precision medicine, diagnostics, connected health, clinical trials and data analytics. It has a vibrant cluster of 170+ businesses, which are a mix of international investors and indigenous companies, which continue to grow and prosper in the region – a testament to Northern Ireland’s compelling proposition. 

‘The area offers a highly skilled, experienced and adaptable workforce; a cost competitive location and a pro-business environment, with local government committed to growing the sector, with financial incentives including grants for product development, employment, training and R&D, available to companies investing in the region. 

‘Northern Ireland’s Life & Health Science sector also boasts an established reputation for innovation in the health technology sector and a strong scientific research base. NI’s two main universities, Queens University Belfast (QUB) and Ulster University (UU), rank among the top 10 in the UK for bioscience research, with more than 1,000 researchers in the region’s Centres of Excellence. Today, NI researchers are at the forefront of convergent technology in health data analytics, machine learning and diagnostics.’
