Uppsala LIFE 2023

We look forward to hosting you at the annual Uppsala LIFE event that will be held on October 11th. During this event we gather, inspire and show the excellence of life science.

Next Generation Life Xcience

Life science, just like other knowledge- and research-intensive areas, is currently undergoing a transformation. We are in the middle of the fourth industrial revolution where technical, biological and digital technologies are merging and creating new rules of the game and industry definitions. We call this convergence Life Xcience.

This disruptive change requires new ways of approaching opportunities and challenges, as well as lifelong learning. As we step into this revolution, we also need to capture the next generation – those who will curiously carry on the legacy and the behaviors and ways of working that will make us successful tomorrow.

Uppsala Castle open its doors for the fifth edition of Uppsala LIFE on 11 October 2023. Welcome!
