Keeping Denmark competitive in life science is a political choice.
Lif has published five priorities it says a new Danish government should focus on to maintain Denmark’s position as a leading life science country-linking innovation with patient treatment.
What Lif is calling for:
- Maintain Denmark’s leading position: ensure conditions that let research and new ideas grow, supporting jobs, growth, and a high-performing health system.
- Faster access to medicines: reduce barriers from bureaucracy and complex reference pricing systems so patients can access new treatments without unnecessary waiting.
- Health as an investment: view health spending as benefiting individuals and society, including through fewer people becoming ill.
- Prioritise research: spend at least 1% of GDP on research (and ideally more) to secure future solutions.
- Make Denmark attractive for production: strengthen competitiveness and infrastructure to retain manufacturing and jobs.
