  5. The Cluster Network Organisation for Medicon Valley In 1997, Medicon Valley Academy began as a university project supported by the European Community In 2000, Medicon Valley Academy turned into a private, non for profit, member based organisation In 2003, Medicon Valley Academy has attracted more than 250 members including universities, hospitals and industry

  9. A Mature Biotech Cluster

  10. The Assignment From HKSTP Analyse the general and specific conditions in Hong Kong for establishing a successful biotech cluster, including a biotech industry, and thereby position Hong Kong in the long term as a leading biotechnology hub in Asia

  11. Value from Cluster Formation Knowledge Creation Technology Transfer Patents & Proof of Concept Business Planning Licences Testing Incubation/ Research Parks Universities & Research Institutions Venture Capital Public & Private Job Creation Funding Conception Formation Industry R & D Regulatory Environment Collaboration/ Partnerships Industry Maturity Growth Partnerships Clinical Trials M&A Activity Regulatory Economics Approval of Scale IPOs /gazelles Product Pipeline Labour Market Clusters & Networks Commercialisation

  12. Basic Conditions for a Biotech Cluster Upstream Midstream Downstream

  13. General Conditions for High-Tech in Hong Kong • World class brand • Excellent infrastructure, sophisticated support systems and limited geography • International airport and transportation systems convenient • Bilingual society – international business outlook • Entrepreneurial spirit • Low personal and corporate taxes • International top level education system • Legal system and protection of IP well reputed • The mainland China market, CEPA

  14. Biomedical Science Strength

  15. Biomedical Science Strength

  16. Prominent BiomedicalResearch Areas • Genetics , incl. genetic-related bioinformatics • Cancer research • Endocrinology (incl. diabetes) • Molecular neuroscience • Organic chemistry • Virology/vaccines, immunology/allergy, developmental biology, cardio-vascular research

  22. Academics in Hong Kong and Biotech Commercialisation • High degree of entrepreneurial spirit • Especially young scientists are positive • Lack of knowledge on how • Only some universities offer courses • TTOs not perceived as pro-active • TTOs are understaffed and under skilled

  23. Trends for Biotech Start-ups and Biotech IPOs

  24. Fundamentals for Attracting Private Risk Capital to Biotech Co’s has Not Changed

  25. Private Venture Capital for Biotech in Hong Kong

  26. Summary of Analysis

  27. Hong Kong can establish a biotech cluster Our overall conclusion is that, if Hong Kong wishes to do so, it can now establish a biotech cluster that includes a biotech industry. We also conclude that it should be done now rather than later so that Hong Kong does not lose the lead it has over several potential competitors. Overall Conclusion

  28. Recommendation 1 Organise the cluster

  29. Medicon Valley Academy Board

  30. Medicon Valley’s International Profile

  31. Recommendation 2Improve Total Technology Management

  32. Recommendation 3Improve Funding for New Biotech Businesses • Establish a new pre-seed/seed fund • Collaborate closely with the TTM organisation • Provide funding for HK university biomedical research • Provide funding for biomedical research pulled in from abroad • Bridge to private venture capital funds • Build an international biotech executive network together with TTM organisation

  33. Recommendation 4 Improve Collaboration Between Research and Industry • Top quality entrepreneurship courses and seminars • Shared research positions university/industry • Joint Ph.D program university/industry

  34. Recommendation 5Instigate Regional Business Plans • Develop a set of regional business planswhich cover • the prominent research areas in HK • pull potential from abroad 2. Analyse potential in shared production plant for therapeutics

  35. Recommendation 6Amplifying the Effect of CEPA • Reform the regulatory system • Upgrade GMP standards • Contact China SFDA for authorisation of CTC

  36. Recommendation 7Stimulate the Biomedical Research Pipeline • Implement ten Strategic Biomedical Research Programmes • Implement twenty Excellent Young Scientists Programmes • Fund additional modern technology services • Increase RGC funding of biomedical research • Develop a high quality web-based HK biomedical database
