Business Innovation in Life Science

Shape the Future of Life Science

Up to 8.6% annual growth and 30.000 additional jobs by the year 2030 are some of the numbers that make the growth potential in life science very tangible. If you and your company want to play a central role, you must be able to apply new thinking, take an active part in strategic collaborations and contribute to breaking down silos internally and across industry and sector boundaries. The future  life science industry is based on the integration of data, converging products, services and strategic partnerships. Furthermore, the requirements for innovation capability are continuously increasing- especially the capability and will to contribute to a more sustainable society and health care system.

The four-day Masterclass programme will give you insights, tools and competencies that strengthen your own position in a competitive market and at the same time enables you to support the continued growth of your company. During 2x2 course days, the participants go through 4 modules that introduce the prerequisites for business innovation in life science.

ESG, Data Science and Innovation & Partnerships as Innovation Enablers

The programme is offered as a collaboration between CBS Executive Fonden and Atrium and offers engaging training and inspirational key-note presentations from industry thought leaders and practitioners as well as researchers.

Researchers from Copenhagen Business School (CBS) contribute with the latest theoretical knowledge and cases within leadership, ESG, digitalization and innovation, while experienced leaders from life science contribute with concrete insights and experiences.
