The BioTechPark Freiburg - an ideal location for young and established companies

BioTechPark Freiburg

BioTechPark Freiburg is an Innovation Center for young and established companies in the life sciences field, especially those specializing in biotechnology, pharmacy and medicine | medical technology (BioMed), as well as related fields such as microsystems technology.

Opened in 1998, BioTechPark is the center of BioRegion Freiburg and enjoys close ties to the University Hospital and University of Freiburg, which just so happens to be one of the oldest, most tradition-steeped universities in Germany.

The BioTechPark is supported by the Technology Foundation BioMed Freiburg, which brings together scientific, economic, and political interests while simultaneously functioning as the coordinating office of BioRegion Freiburg.

  • Integration into BioRegion Freiburg and the tri-national BioValley network

Location and Accessibility

With a total of 645,000 residents and 355,000 workers, the economic region of Freiburg has been shaped by its central location in Europe and the border triangle of Germany, France, and Switzerland.

Outstanding location factors include a high living standard and quality of life; a strong, dynamic economy; an international flair; and a positive, innovative environment. With an average age of 39.8 years, the University City of Freiburg with around 35.000 students at six colleges and universities is the youngest city in the state Baden-Wurttemberg.

Located in the Innovation Cluster Freiburg-Nord, which enjoys excellent connections to the A5 motorway (Frankfurt - Basel) and downtown Freiburg, BioTechPark Freiburg is neighbor to an array of successful companies and research institutions in the field of Health and Life Sciences.

The technical and natural science faculties of the University of Freiburg; the University Hospital; the Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics; the five institutes of the Fraunhofer Society; and the new Hahn Schickard Institute for Microanalysis Systems are all in close proximity to BioTechPark Freiburg, as is the Messe Freiburg, which provides the entire site with a modern, representative infrastructure.

BioPhyto Medical

Natural Product-Based Drug Development

The term "poststantibiotic era" was coined about three decades ago when available antibiotics gradually ceased to be effective on account of the emergence of multidrug resistance in infectious microorganisms. It is a fact that human pathogens are developing increasing resistance to a broad range of available antimicrobials, thus putting into doubt the success of treatment with conventional antibiotics. It is for this very reason that the BioΦytoMedical Scientific Team is working on the development of drugs based on natural products for the treatment of infections.

Reuter Chemische Apparatebau KG

RCA is dedicated to the manufacture of quality chiral substances at competitive prices. RCA's strength lies in its innovative, patented technology for separating chiral mixtures.

RCA is able to carry out both custom separations and industrial scale production and has the capacity to undertake chiral separation projects from a few kilos to multi-tonne production quantities, producing enantiomers with high chemical and optical purity at a fraction of the cost of other more conventional resolving processes. Chances that we will find a highly economic separation process for a given racemate are better than 70%. The costs for initial evaluation of a project are kept at a minimum and a response can normally be given within three weeks. The process can then be scaled-up quickly and efficiently to produce material to an agreed specification, price and delivery schedule.

Spindiag GmbH

Spindiag GmbH was founded in 2016 as a spin-off from the research institute Hahn-Schickard. It develops a system for the fast, broad and affordable screening of patients for antibiotic-resistant germs during their admission to hospitals. This is crucial because worldwide millions of patients get infected in hospitals every year. Spindiag’s system will generate information on more than 20 possible pathogens and their antibiotic resistance directly at the point-of-care from patient samples in just 30 minutes, instead of as before in 24-72 hours. Through this early knowledge of bacteria and resistances, the number of unnecessary infections can be significantly reduced in hospitals because a sound isolation decision can be made quickly.
