Pharmaceutical 

The North West is one of the UK's top three clusters for the biomedical sector, which includes biotechnology, pharmaceuticals and medical devices.

It is home to some 230 biomedical companies, including seven multinational pharmaceutical firms, employing 25,000 people. The region is the highest exporter of pharmaceuticals in the UK (£3.4 billion). The cluster has a rich heritage, dating back to the industrial revolution and the development of the chemicals industry, which in turn led to pharmaceuticals.
