No­var­tis chris­tens new UK HQ in West Lon­don, kick­ing off its big in­clisir­an CV tri­al

Swiss drug­mak­er No­var­tis has joined its big phar­ma com­pa­tri­ot GSK by of­fi­cial­ly mov­ing its UK head­quar­ters to West Lon­don.

The move to White City — op­po­site Im­pe­r­i­al Col­lege Lon­don’s cam­pus — was planned in 2018. The re­lo­ca­tion from No­var­tis’ site at Frim­ley in Sur­rey in­clud­ed some 600 staffers to the 54,000-square-feet at The West­Works, part of the re­birth of the old BBC Me­dia Vil­lage cam­pus in the White City area that is now con­sid­ered home to an emerg­ing life sci­ences clus­ter with com­pa­nies such as Au­to­lus, Gam­ma Delta and Syn­thace.
