Last week, Jacob Lundgren, Associate VC Relations, joined the Health & Life Science Venture Day in Hamburg. This event, organized by Health Innovation Port, Hamburg Investors Network, HTGF | High-Tech Gründerfonds, and Life Science Nord, brought together investors and innovative ideas from the healthcare sector. Startups of various sizes pitched their innovative business models in three categories: Biotech, MedTech, and Digital Health. 💡💼 When we asked Jacob Lundgren about his insights from the event, this is what he said:    “Hamburg's life science community is clearly thriving and evolving. Strengthening our cooperation with Germany is essential, not only to enhance access to capital but also to benefit from the flow of innovative companies emerging from the region. The potential here is significant, and we are looking forward to exploring these opportunities. Participating in the event was enjoyable and helped us strengthen our connections with the German ecosystem. Thank you Life Science Nord for organizing this fantastic event!” 🇩🇪🌟 Thank you FUSE Integrierte Kommunikation und Software-Entwicklung for the picture from the event. 📸 #LifeScience #Innovation #Investment #Healthcare #Hamburg #HLSVentureDay #Networking #Biotech #MedTech #DigitalHealth #Startups #LifeScienceStarups

If Swedish research doesn't translate into practical applications within Sweden, we miss out on significant societal benefits. It's crucial to not only focus on research but also to sustain support for startups and innovation actors, which are currently facing reductions. This is a key issue our CEO, Ebba Fåhraeus, aims to address as a member of the Swedish Government Office's advisory group for life science. The group met for the first time this week, discussing issues like the importance of developing and implementing precision medicine, developing structures for healthdata with regards to integrity, strengthening the competence supply, the need for better clinical trials etc, as particularly important for Swedish life science. Thank you to the members of the advisory group for constructive discussions Jenni Nordborg, Thomas Eldered, Maria Björkqvist, Annika Östman Wernerson, Anna L., Gustaf Salford, Ulrika Årehed Kågström, Jens Nielsen, Patrik Danielson, Johan Färnstrand, Anders Ahlsson, Jessica Martinsson, Håkan Sandahl, Bettina Ryll, Stefan Jovinge, Karin Forsberg Nilsson, Emilie Antoni, Magnus Hallberg, Beatrice Melin, Rickard Simonsson, Britta Stenson, PhD Looking forward to continuing the discussions at the next meeting!
