Healthcare in NRW

NRW.INVEST Key Visual Healthcare

With more than 1.1 million employees the healthcare industry is a growth and innovation engine for NRW. A high-quality healthcare landscape profits from excellence in technology, research and supply. The healthcare system currently embraces around 400 hospitals and 138 care and rehabilitation facilities. The state's six university clinics and the decentralized model of the clinic of the Ruhr University Bochum with its approx. 200 clinical departments are particularly noteworthy in this respect. The Healthcare Campus North Rhine-Westphalia contributes towards spotlighting the state as an outstanding healthcare location. The campus in Bochum breathes life into the interlinking of health policies with science, research and teaching on the one hand and economic development on the other.

Besides well-known companies such as 3M, Gebr. Brasseler, Medtronic and Sarstedt it is small and medium-sized enterprises in particular that characterize the medical technology sector in NRW. The pharmaceutical industry is also very well positioned in the state with around 50 companies employing over 11,000 people. The largest firms include Bayer HealthCare, Janssen-Cilag and UCB.
