Abstract
resund, a cross-border region between Sweden and Denmark, aims to become a world leading science region through enhanced knowledge transfer and cross-border integration. The region ranks third behind London and Paris in biotechnological and medical research. A large part of the economy is, however, based on traditional, low-tech activities. The 'resund University and the 'resund Science Region have made progress in constructing a bottom-up cross-border science region. The OECD Peer Review Team believes that 'resund has potential to become a significant motor for the two nations. There is, however, a need to encourage an agreement between the two national governments for harmonisation of current policy differences impeding cross-border development. There is also a need to make the 'resund partnerships more inclusive and operational in a practical sense.
