Thames Valley Chamber of Commerce is proud to continue to host the Thames Valley’s only region-wide, curated, Health and Life Sciences working group.  Our industry-led group serves as a vital platform for collaboration, convening global corporates, innovative SMEs, academic institutions, and educational establishments (including LSIP partners), NHS trusts, government stakeholders, professional bodies, and pre-eminent thought leaders.

We continue to maintain and lobby government to ensure they fully understand the contribution and ambition of the Thames Valley to be a key part of their solution, to deliver economic growth, position the UK as a science and technology super-power and deliver a Fit for the Future NHS.
