Bio-Technopark
In very close proximity to the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), the University and Zurich University Hospital, a science park for life science companies and institutions has developed in the last two decades, which has now acquired both national and international significance. On the former site of the Schweizerische Wagons- und Aufzügefabrik AG and on neighboring sites, 100,000 m2 of laboratory, production and office space is now leased to around 60 companies and organizations, and 80 academic research groups.
