[:en]‘Strength and Opportunity’, the Office for Life Science’s annual review of the landscape of the medical technology and biopharmaceutical sectors in the UK, wrote in May 2018 that “life sciences in the UK continues to grow across all key performance indicators, with a 2.4% increase in employment and 9.3% increase in turnover between 2016 and 2017”.
