The campus that we want to build alongside the new hospital is a centre for science, academia and innovation to come together.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  <img   width=\"100%\"\/>3D modelling image (Image: Stride Tregowan)\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cWe want this to be an accelerator, bringing skills in, bringing employment to the area and working with educational institutions to make sure we have staff.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  <img   width=\"100%\"\/>A bird&#8217;s-eye design of the campus (Image: Newsquest)\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The campus would be built in phases, combining simulations, labs, teaching facilities and offices in one building, which could be extended in the future if required.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Shirlene explained that the health campus\u2019 progress \u2018depends on the momentum we can build\u2019 and discussions have begun with investors and partners, with one university on board and three others expressing interest.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  She detailed that there is an opportunity to deliver the campus before the new hospital, which is currently projected to begin building between 2037-39 and be completed in 2042.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  No clinical healthcare would be provided at the campus and it would be independent of new hospital decisions and wouldn&#8217;t influence any timescales, location options and decisions or land allocation that exist under the New Hospital Programme.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  She said: \u201cWe would look at how we improve health as innovation, and for sickness and prevention, keeping people healthy helps the economy.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cI think this is a great once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the hospital and also for the campus. We have a number of interested parties.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cThe sooner the better for us really.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"At Basingstoke\u2019s Investment Update on November 5, as part of Basingstoke Business Week, Chief Strategy and Population Health&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":251041,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[102,2960,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-251040","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-healthcare","8":"tag-health","9":"tag-healthcare","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/251040","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=251040"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/251040\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/251041"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=251040"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=251040"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=251040"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
