Northern Sweden’s life science ecosystem is built on a strong regional support system and we are working together to move ideas to innovative solutions. Innovation is driven by the region’s demographic and geographic characteristics — such as long distances, a sparse population, and a high level of digital maturity — which contribute to the development of new solutions in both urban and rural settings.
We provide development and collaboration opportunities for researchers, healthcare providers and industry, both within and outside the region. We value strong collaborations and contact networks internationally. In order to exchange knowledge and experiences we arrange several events.
Current focus areas:
Medical Technology
Rural Medicine
Prevention and Public Health
Cancer and Radiation
Mental Health
We aim to create a focal point for connected health and optimize regional healthcare by connecting healthcare organisations, academia, and industry. Thereby expanding resources, reducing costs, and solving complex healthcare problems faster than any one group alone.
Our ecosystem creates a community that exchanges knowledge and learning, but also opportunities for collaboration, research and innovation. Collaboration that will improve the way health and care is delivered in Northern Sweden and introduce new innovative technology and services.
