Overview

The NSW Government is accelerating development at what is already one of Australia’s largest health and research zones. The Westmead Health and Innovation District will soon be a global centre for new discoveries, commercialisation, treatment, education and training.

With a focus on innovative models of health care enhanced by emerging technologies, data analytics and industry partnerships, Westmead will house new industries and research partnerships that deliver jobs for NSW and better medical care for the world.

Westmead Health and Innovation District

The district includes 4 major hospitals, 4 world-leading medical research institutes, 2 university campuses and the largest research-intensive pathology service in NSW.

By 2036, the number of full-time staff will increase to more than 50,000 and the number of students will expand to more than 10,000.

Among the first projects for development is a viral vector advanced manufacturing facility to provide ground-breaking trial therapies for infections, cancer and genetic diseases.
