ACTIVATE FOR SCIENCE

Transform your commercial property into a thriving Innovation Hub

We partner with forward-thinking landlords, universities and local authorities to convert, build, activate and manage spaces for science and technology innovators.

WHY WORK WITH SCIOPOLIS?

Pragmatic, cost-effective delivery

Following our rapid diagnostic study, we design, build, fitout, launch and activate spaces quickly, with site openings possible within 12 months of signoff

Ecosystem building

Our “black book” of academics, industry and service partners ensures tenant success and increases retention, creating a pipeline for future developments

Ready-to-occupy labs and offices

Tenants move in without upfront capital expenditure, removing friction: this makes your property more attractive and accelerates occupancy

Initial Masterplan activation

Whether delivering a single building or an ambitious masterplan, the key is to begin activation early. Our hubs spark wider regeneration and kickstart clusters

Operational excellence

We don’t just fill space, we actively manage and operate our hubs to drive compliance, efficiency and community

WHY NOW?

Demand for cost-effective, flexible, ready to occupy laboratory and office space is high among early-stage science and technology ventures. 

By partnering with us, you can:
​​

  • Activate underutilised assets or unlock new revenue streams.

  • Establish an anchor building that sparks life in the cluster, sets the tone for a new district and validates the wider masterplan

  • Tap into an emerging market of science and technology ventures.

  • Enhance long-term value by aligning your property with one of the UK’s most strategic growth sectors.

CAN YOUR PROPERTY BECOME AN INNOVATION HUB?

Sciopolis is building a network of Innovation Hubs. If you own commercial property in or near innovation clusters, university towns or regional growth areas, we'd welcome a conversation about partnership opportunities.
