Life science manufacturing makes a significant contribution to the UK economy, accounting for 11.4% (£30.7bn) of all manufactured goods exported. Due to its strong global reputation, there is high demand from international buyers who are keen to access UK expertise, experience, and innovative solutions. The global market for healthcare services is growing as governments deliver more healthcare capacity and quality to their populations. Global health care spending is expected to rise at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5% each year between 2019 and 2023.

In the South West, companies of all shapes and sizes may not realise that they indeed either have an opportunity to export, or, expand their exports significantly.

 

Who is this webinar for?

This webinar is suitable for any South West Healthcare & Life Sciences companies working along the patient pathway who are keen to start or grow their exports. Companies who sign up may also elect to select an additional one to one session with Jamie Shaw to discuss how DIT can support their business’ export strategy. Unfortunately we are unable to accept bookings out of the South West area.
