The future health and innovation area GoCo Health Innovation City is a joint venture between Next Step and Vectura Fastigheter, in close collaboration with Astra Zeneca. The innovation area south of Gothenburg in Mölndal will attract researchers, entrepreneurs and talents from all over the world. The focus is on health, medical development and digital entrepreneurship. In the area's 100,000 square meters, there is room for 350 companies, housing, hotels and living green spaces.

And before that as both project manager on the consultancy side at Ramböll and Hifab, as well as in production at Peab, Kraftbyggarna and NCC.

"Like many other companies that work with innovation, the challenge is to find the right talents. It is therefore with great pleasure that we welcome Anna Eckerstig to the organisation. With her experience and background in academia, project management and real estates, Anna is the perfect puzzle piece now when we enter this new phase in the project," says Peder Wahlgren, CEO of GoCo Development.

Anna starts her employment this autumn to take on the responsibility for development and implementation of the real estate project with a focus on innovation and health.

"GoCo Health Innovation City has in a short time created a buzz in the industry and their ambition is appealing to me.
