Demand for life science sustains as supply remains tight

Vacancy rates at Bipolis is at 4% in Q2 2023.

With the tight supply and active expansions of life science firms, vacancy rates of business parks at Biopolis could tighten further, Cushman & Wakefield said in a latest report.

“Over 80% of the upcoming Elementum business park at Biopolis is reported to be pre-committed or in advanced negotiations,” said Cushman & Wakefield.

The next wet lab-ready business park supply in the one-north and Science Park precincts would be 1 Science Park Drive in the next two years.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
