WORKSPACES DESIGNED TO HELP YOU GROW

Here at Biopôle, we have a variety of different workspaces to suit your needs, whatever they might be. Members can access spaces and facilities of all shapes and sizes, including shared laboratories, adaptable meeting rooms, co-working spaces, private offices and more. After all, we host companies of every size, from the earliest-stage start-ups to the most well-established multinational enterprises.

What’s more, the flexibility and dynamism of our interconnected campus environment allows companies to grow – and even degrow – according to their shifting needs. In 2023 alone, we not only welcomed 30 new companies but helped another 19 to grow by facilitating their relocation into larger office and laboratory spaces. All in all, these expanding companies took on an additional 2,690 m2, benefiting a significant number of users.

Biopôle shared and private laboratories

SHARED AND PRIVATE SERVICED LABORATORIES

We offer 3,000 m² of shared and private laboratory space in the form of StartLab and Superlab – these labs are the largest of their kind in Switzerland, making us a pioneer in the field.
StartLab is a fully equipped, licensed co-working space that offers state-of-the-art infrastructure, equipment and offices. Meanwhile Superlab offers private laboratory facilities and equipment for companies requiring more privacy.

Both spaces are tailored to emerging life sciences companies operating in wet lab biology and chemistry environments for drug discovery, diagnostics, synthetic biology, medtech and more.

Biopôle private offices and desks

PRIVATE DESKS AND OFFICES

Small- to medium-sized private office spaces – ranging from 30 m² to 250 m² – are becoming increasingly popular among our members: they allow you to enjoy the privacy of your own space while still having like-minded people nearby.

For companies that are just starting out, we also offer private desks in our co-working spaces. All of our shared and private offices benefit from meeting rooms, kitchenettes and showers.

Biopôle bespoke developments

BESPOKE DEVELOPMENTS

Some companies prefer to build their lab and office space from scratch – which is also an option here at Biopôle.

Our campus is continuously growing, and so companies are able to collaborate with Biopôle SA and building owners/property developers to create the perfect bespoke space for their team.

The latest development is the Arginine, Valine and Trypto complex, with spaces available from Q1 2025.
