<!-- Abstract -->
During the last two decades Cuba has developed biotechnology
          and pharmaceutical industry with high priority. In spite of remarkable
          scientific progress the expected economic success did not take place
          so far. The article outlines the specific goals and general framework
          of the ambitious Cuban development strategy, describes the building
          up of the cientific cluster of West Havanna and discusses the problems
          of commercial exploitation of the high-grade medical products. Finally
          the outcome of Cuban efforts concerning research and development
          in the field of biotechnology and medicine are evaluated.
