Innovate UK x ATMP Flemingsberg: Collaborations, Inspiration, and Networking

At the beginning of the year, we had the privilege of welcoming a delegation from England, with representatives from Innovate UK and eleven ATMP (Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products) companies. This marks the beginning of a significant partnership with great potential to ultimately cure diseases that were previously incurable.

ATMP Flemingsberg
It was an intense morning that began with a presentation of the new initiative ATMP Flemingsberg. Flemingsberg is more than just a location; it’s a hub where expertise, innovation, and collaboration seamlessly come together. This unique environment is characterized by its close proximity, the growing city, and of course the Karolinska ATMP center, which brings together world-leading research, the hospital and cutting-edge research facilities.

– The visit from Innovate UK was very successful. We and the companies and research infrastructures within ATMP in Flemingsberg had a unique opportunity to meet companies from England and listen to interesting business ideas and discuss future collaborations. The event also shows the fantastic ecosystem in the field that exists in Flemingsberg, which our visitors also testify to! Now we from the foundation are following up with our companies how we can take this further and see how we can create a structure for long-term cooperation with Innovate UK, says Johnny Högberg CEO of Flemingsberg Science Foundation.

An Ecosystem for Innovation
Flemingsberg-based companies XNK Therapeutics and Biomedrex took the stage to share their journeys, emphasizing how the vibrant atmosphere of Flemingsberg played a crucial role in their success stories. The synergy between the hospital, academia, and research institutes at the heart of Flemingsberg creates an exceptional ecosystem for innovation.

The day also included a pitching session that provided a platform for both British and local companies to showcase their visions. This not only fostered a deeper understanding of each other’s capabilities but also paved the way for potential collaborations in the future. This exchange laid the groundwork for future partnerships, knowledge exchange, and breakthroughs in the field of advanced therapies. We look forward to taking the next step in this partnership.

SISP deepens innovation collaboration in Flemingsberg

During the spring, Flemingsberg Science approached Swedish Incubators and Science Parks (SISP) for help to further improve its development of Flemingsberg. SISP’s special peer review method shares knowledge and experiences between similar initiatives and organisations across the country.

Innovation hub Campus Flemingsberg takes new steps

We’ve hit the ground running for 2023. We continue to work on the strategic goal of making Flemingsberg the obvious choice for start-ups to locate in southern Stockholm with an internationally competitive innovation environment that offers testbeds for urban societal challenges.

Stockholm innovation hubs build knowledge and attractiveness

Innovation hubs such as Flemingsberg Science make it easier to attract the knowledge and competences needed for the development of the sustainable city of the future. “The ability of hubs to rapidly identify needs and trends is crucial for the development of the Stockholm region. Flemingsberg Science strengthens the local ecosystem and contributes to businesses being able to conduct research, and develop and grow in the region, especially in life sciences,” says Anton Västberg, Development Director, Region Stockholm.
