Founding Members
In less than a year, we managed to represent over 3,000 employees from the private sector and 14,000 employees from public institutions, despite the establishment being driven by volunteer efforts from both sectors.
The core mission of Life Science Fyn is to devise a collective strategy and vision to strengthen Funen’s standing in the life science sector. This strategy is rooted in a shared responsibility for cooperation across local private companies, public institutions, Funen municipalities, and the Region. Key to this vision is the increased use of local resources and locally educated individuals to boost growth and innovation while mitigating the migration of highly educated labor from Funen.
