The Science Park Universe

Science at Work

Science parks are where innovation is nurtured. In these dynamic environments, knowledge is shared and advanced – making them an inspiring setting for all who research, study, or invest here. Based on an established US concept, science parks offer newly-founded companies an extensive and specialised ecosystem to drive their development.

 

Remarkable growth and high demand

The German life sciences & tech real estate market is showing exceptional growth rates. Users and researchers are increasingly demanding specialised premises and facilities. Over the past five years, the average annual take-up of science park space in Germany has been around 209,000 m2 – representing growth of around 70% compared to the previous five years.
