About Granta Park www.grantapark.co.uk

Granta Park is Cambridge’s leading life-science research park and extends to 120 acres in total. It is a low-density research park, located at the heart of Europe’s strongest and most dynamic cluster of life science and technology-based companies.

Many of these companies were founded to commercialise research that was spun out of the UK’s top-ranked University of Cambridge which is located six miles away. The Park, with planning consent, has been developed exclusively for high-tech companies involved in research and development. Work on the green-field site for Granta Park commenced in 1998 and since that time has grown to 1 million square feet of laboratory and office space with 2,500 people working on the park each day.
