Edinburgh is also a city of opportunity, home to world-class innovation and a great place to invest. Over the past two decades, Edinburgh BioQuarter has played a pivotal role in Scotland’s successes in the life sciences sector, which has a turnover in excess of £6.5bn and employs over 41,000 people. With the commitment of its partners City of Edinburgh Council, NHS Lothian, Scottish Enterprise and the University of Edinburgh, BioQuarter has had over £500m public capital investment, with a further £300m planned by its partners over the next five years. The planned expansion of BioQuarter into a vibrant community where academics and clinicians will rub shoulders with entrepreneurs, students and families is an opportunity for new private sector partners to be part of a global success story. This is undoubtedly one of the most exciting investment and collaboration opportunities available, with far-reaching benefits for investors, local communities and global health innovators alike. It will be a hub for innovators, and a magnet for clinical experts from around the world. The Scottish Government is committed to protecting and growing our economy and we are clear that our country is open for business. We want you to be a part of that success. Ivan McKee MSP Minister for Trade, Investment and Innovation 1 The Vision Edinburgh BioQuarter is undergoing a transformation.

The new neighbourhood will be an attractive, inclusive urban quarter for people to live, learn, work, play, relax and discover. Shops, cafés, hotel, nursery and residential homes will sit alongside state-of-the-art innovation facilities - creating a lively environment that promotes health and wellbeing and where people want to visit. BioQuarter will be a welcoming and accessible place for local communities, with carbon neutral targets and excellent connectivity both within the site and to the wider city.

  • Enabling a World-Leading Regional Digital Economy Through Data Driven Innovation
    ©Jonathan Clark Fine Art, Representatives of the Artist's Estate Enabling a World-Leading Regional Digital Economy through Data Driven Innovation Edinburgh & South East Scotland City Region A Science and Innovation Audit Report sponsored by the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy MAIN REPORT Edinburgh and South East Scotland City Region Consortium Foreword In Autumn 2015 the UK Government announced regional Science and Innovation Audits (SIAs) to catalyse a new approach to regional economic development. SIAs enable local Consortia to focus on analysing regional strengths and identify mechanisms to realise their potential. In the Edinburgh and South East Scotland City Region, a Consortium was formed to focus on our rapidly growing strength in Data-Driven Innovation (DDI). This report presents the results which includes broad-ranging analysis of the City Region’s DDI capabilities, the challenges and the substantial opportunities for future economic growth. Data-led disruption will be at the heart of future growth in the Digital Economy, and will enable transformational change across the broader economy. However, the exact scope, scale and timing of these impacts remains unclear1. The questions we face are simple yet far-reaching – given this uncertainty, is now the right time to commit fully to the DDI opportunity? If so, what are the investments we should make to optimise regional economic growth? This SIA provides evidence that we must take concerted action now to best position the City Region to benefit from the disruptive effects of DDI. If investment is deferred, we run the risk of losing both competitiveness and output to other leading digital clusters that have the confidence to invest.
