Professional networks for knowledge sharing and networking

Medicon Village is the most prominent hub for research and entrepreneurship, focusing on life science in southern Sweden. By facilitating cross-border collaborations, conditions are created for medical advances to give more people a healthier life.

As part of this ambition, we run networks promoting knowledge exchange and networking between members, but also with friends who do not have a firm foothold at Medicon Village.

The networks have different shapes and orientations. If you are interested in becoming a member of any of our networks, please get in touch with the contact persons below. If you are interested in starting and running a network at Medicon Village, please contact Lottie Norrsen at lottie.norrsen@mediconvillage.se.
