Founding Pharma Partners

Where Industry, Research and Healthcare Unite to Create Global Impact

Founding Pharma Partners is a strategic collaboration initiative bringing together leading pharmaceutical companies, academia, healthcare organizations, and innovators to accelerate health innovation and strengthen Finland’s position as a globally recognized life science hub

The most impactful breakthroughs in healthcare rarely happen in isolation. They emerge when industry, research, healthcare systems, and innovators unite around shared challenges and ambitious goals.

Established by Health Capital Helsinki, Founding Pharma Partners provides a platform for meaningful cross-sector collaboration, enabling organizations to exchange insights, explore new opportunities, and develop initiatives with real-world impact. Together, partners help advance research, improve patient outcomes, and create the conditions for sustainable growth and international competitiveness.

By connecting expertise across disciplines and organizations, the initiative aims to elevate the Helsinki metropolitan area as one of Europe’s leading environments for pharmaceutical innovation, health research, and healthcare transformation.
