WHY TECH PARK BASEL

Not a lab you rent. A place you grow.

Basel has excellent serviced lab space. What it has only here is an innovation environment built as a public mandate — where the goal isn’t a return on your rent, but the success of your company.

See our full offer

A public mandate, not private profit

Anchored by the Canton of Basel-Stadt and run as a non-profit. We're here for your growth, not a margin — and we're here for the long term.

A community, not a client list

A curated community of founders, alumni and Basel ecosystem partners. The company two doors down is often the connection, hire or co-investor you needed.

A partner for the whole journey

From your first lab bench to your IPO. 70+ companies have grown here — many stayed with us as they scaled, exited and went public.

We run the infrastructure so your team can focus on science, product and growth

WHAT YOU GET

Everything a growing team needs – in one place.

More than just space – a complete package. Founder-friendly conditions, flexible solutions, a prime Basel location and the active startup support of the Canton of Basel-Stadt – designed for life sciences companies to innovate, connect and grow.
