MedCity is the life sciences cluster organisation for London, set up in 2014 by the Mayor of London and the city’s three Academic Health Science Centres. We are funded by the Greater London Authority and Research England, and as a not-for-profit are able to act as a neutral and independent convener across industry, academia and the public sector.

London and the greater south east is home to a rich life sciences cluster, with more than 3,400 life sciences companies, four of the world’s top ten universities, 19 of the top 20 global pharmaceutical companies and world class research centres including The Francis Crick Institute, Harwell Oxford and The Sanger Institute.

Our ambition is for our region to be the unequivocal place of choice for world-leading health and life sciences innovation, R&D, manufacture and commercialisation.
