Rob Sadler, Tom Mellows, Ollie Fursdon and James Dexter join Guy Ruddle to discuss what other UK cities can learn from Cambridge when it comes to the life sciences sector. Cambridge has one of the largest life sciences and bio-tech clusters in Europe and continues to compete on a global level in this field. What then is the magic formula and how can other locations emulate its success? With London, in particular, well placed to capitalise on this increasing demand, the experts discuss why these businesses are attracted to the capital, their unique requirements, retrofitting laboratory space into conventional office buildings and, looking ahead, whether or not we will start to see new developments cater to these firms in the future.
