Biomedical Innovation, Improved Patient Outcomes
What is GMEC?
The Global Medical Excellence Cluster (GMEC) is a not-for-profit company formed in 2007 and is the largest healthcare cluster in Europe.
GMEC brings together leading universities, companies and NHS Trusts to build the capabilities to keep the UK globally competitive in biomedical research and attract inward investment. Five of the UK’s top life science and medical research based universities, Cambridge University, Imperial College London, King’s College London, Oxford University and University College London, founded GMEC in partnership with GlaxoSmithKline, GE Healthcare, Pfizer UK, The Maudsley Hospital and The Royal Marsden Hospital.
GMEC’s vision is to improve patient outcomes and achieve a globally competitive position in biomedical science and innovation. We will increase cutting edge medical research, improve collaboration between academic, clinical and industrial partners and attract increased inward investment.
