Big names from the government and life sciences, as well as top brass from Novartis (NOVN: VX), were in attendance as the Swiss pharma giant marked the official opening of its new UK headquarters.

Novartis has focused communications around the opening of the new site in White City, west London, on its launch of a new UK-centered clinical trial of the cardiovascular candidate inclisiran, which the company acquired in its $9.7 billion buy of The Medicines Company last year.

The company also confirmed on Tuesday that it would expand Novartis Biome to the UK. This program is a digital innovation lab that aims to empower and engender health tech companies and people to disrupt healthcare through the use of data and digital technologies.
