Possibilities and conditions

Stockholm Life Solna-Stockholm’s work departs from outstanding conditions which are already in place:

Sweden's leading life science density:
the fact that the Stockholm-Uppsala region comprises more than 60% of the country's life science muscle;
a strong concentration of life science activities within a ray of 2 kilometers in Hagastaden, in the very centre of the city and one step away from the nature;
a strong regional centre in the southern greater Stockholm region, Flemingsberg, where cooperation opportunities between academia, industry and society are on the increase.

These geographic conditions are only matched by the internationally high standard of industry, academic and healthcare spheres as well as a cooperation work (triple helix) between them. Stockholm Life's goal is to create a European hub for research and development for improved health and life.
