Europe has the science, talent, and ambition to lead globally in biotech and healthcare, but to secure that leadership and potential, we must build the conditions that make innovation, capital, and people to start, scale and remain in Europe. In this paper, Invest Europe highlights how to strengthen Europe’s biotech and healthcare ecosystem: unlocking investment at every stage, ensuring public funding complements private capital, promoting smarter and harmonised regulation, creating a competitive end-user market for innovation, harnessing technology and data that accelerate discovery, and strengthening the entrepreneurial workforce - to deliver world-class breakthroughs that drive prosperity, resilience, and better health.
