About campus

In order to safeguard our planet’s resources and to create a more responsible living environment, society needs to move from a depleting, fossil-based economy to a circular, bio-based economy.

The Biotech Campus Delft is Europe’s leading open innovation campus helping to drive this transition. Our campus is home to start-ups, scale-ups, SMEs, and long-established companies active in industrial biotechnology. We support the entire innovation cycle; from research to pilot and production.

At our location, collaboration and knowledge exchange between companies and knowledge institutions are actively encouraged, because we believe this accelerates the development of biobased innovations. More than 1200 people work here on developing, scaling up, and commercializing biobased innovations, making full use of the expertise and capabilities concentrated on the campus. In doing so, the established companies stimulate open innovation within the biotech field, while at the same time providing the resources and competencies that stakeholders, governments, and emerging enterprises need to innovate and grow.
