NETPark joins Northern Life Science Gathering in Newcastle Today

NETPark is in Newcastle today supporting one of its innovative tenant companies, HFR, at the Northern Life Science Gathering — an event bringing together scientists, founders, investors and industry leaders from across the region.

Hosted at The Catalyst, the event has created a lively hub for discussion and collaboration within the North East’s rapidly growing life sciences community.

Championing a NETPark success story

The Northern Life Science Gathering is organised by HFR, a long-standing NETPark company that specialises in chemistry-led research, development and manufacturing services for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors.

The event reflects the company’s commitment not only to scientific innovation, but also to strengthening connections across the region’s life sciences ecosystem.

As a key member of the NETPark community, High Force Research continues to play an important role in showcasing the expertise and capabilities emerging from the science park.

NETPark team on hand to meet innovators

Representatives from NETPark are attending the event today and welcoming visitors to their table to learn more about the science park and the thriving cluster of science and technology companies based in County Durham.

Attendees are invited to stop by, say hello and find out how NETPark supports innovative businesses with specialist facilities, collaborative opportunities and an environment designed to help companies grow and scale.

Spotlight on regional opportunity

The event programme also features a talk from Kerry Walker from Business Durham, highlighting the strength of the region’s innovation landscape and the opportunities available for life sciences companies in the North East.

Strengthening the life sciences community

By bringing together researchers, businesses and investors in one place, the Northern Life Science Gathering is helping to spark new ideas, partnerships and collaborations across the sector.

For NETPark, it is also a chance to celebrate the success of companies like HFR — and the role they play in building a vibrant, forward-looking science and technology community in the region.
