Labs and London: Creating the space to meet life sciences demand

Demand for life sciences space in London is far outstripping supply – but high-profile schemes on the horizon offer a glimpse at new hubs and clusters across the capital.

In this 40-minute discussion, recorded during LREF week with the support of JLL, EG’s guests discuss the outlook for life sciences in the city, the hurdles to creating new real estate and why the capital must collaborate with, rather than compete against, other regional centres of excellence.

Joining deputy editor Tim Burke are:

• Sven Bunn, life sciences programme director, Barts Health NHS Trust
• Matt Fitter, investor and developer lead, life sciences, JLL
• Ivana Poparic, head of cluster development, MedCity
• James Sheppard, managing director, Kadans
