«I have no doubt that this project will be implemented. After all, the potential of Lviv Polytechnic – scientific, intellectual and financial – is extremely powerful. When we implement project on Science Park and Medical Cluster, we will have results that will affect the prestige of Lviv Polytechnic and Lviv region in general», said Rector of Lviv Polytechnic National University Yurii Bobalo.
