Biopôle is a life sciences Campus based in Lausanne, Switzerland, bringing together a strong community of industry and academia. It offers a world-class combination of infrastructure, added value services, living space and community engagement where partners can thrive and bring science to life.
A melting pot of ideas
Our campus might have impressive facilities and an ideal location, but it’s the cluster of 130 multinationals, scale-ups, start-ups, SMEs, foundations and research institutes that make Biopôle one of the most attractive hubs of innovation in Europe.
Biopôle is the home of leading companies, prestigious research institutes, clinical research departments and dozens of other research entities – all collaborating, inspiring and learning from each other. With diverse skill sets, priorities and business approaches, the Biopôle community works together to advance life sciences research and development.
Biopôle works with both industry and academia to ensure that there is communal knowledge and appreciation of what projects they are pursuing and where there might be opportunities for synergies and collaboration.
Biopôle SA, the management and promotion organisation for the park, was established in 2004 as a limited company by the public authorities of the Canton of Vaud. The organisation is led by an executive team and Board of Directors with an extensive track-record in life sciences.
