In Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Questions, today, Lucy Frazer MP, pointed to the benefits of the collaborative approach being taken by academia, business and healthcare at the Cambridge Biomedical Campus.
In a question to the Minister for Universities, Science, Research and Innovation, Jo Johnson, Lucy said, ‘I recently visited the Cambridge biomedical campus, which brings together academia, business and healthcare. Does the Minister agree that this is important collaboration, which will help boost productivity, improve our economy and create jobs for the future?’
The Minister responded, saying ‘Yes, indeed. Cambridge is leading the way in this respect, as in many others. We want to see more collaboration between our universities and the world of business to drive commercialisation and to make the most of the R and D we are investing in.’
