Over recent months, the team at Roslin Innovation Centre have been accompanying prospective and secured tenants regularly on site visits, showcasing the new development as it reaches the final build stages.
Spin in company Greengage Lighting Ltd was among our first visitors and the first commercial entity to commit to leasing space.
The company specialises in lighting and control systems for the international poultry and pig industry.
“Greengage is a role model tenant and exactly the type of innovative company we are looking to attract.”
John Mackenzie, CEO, Roslin Innovation CentreWe also welcomed Roslin Technologies Ltd, a new company set up to maximise the commercialisation of research at the Easter Bush Campus, that will move into their new office space in the autumn.
Roslin Technologies offer opportunities for investors looking to capitalise on the growing demand for food and agricultural products.
“Being in the midst of a burgeoning community of animal health spin out and spin in companies, attracted to the Roslin Innovation Centre, is the perfect place for us to locate.”
Glen Illing, Partner, JB Equity and acting CEO, Roslin TechnologiesR&D-led company, MV Diagnostics Ltd, have also viewed their new open-plan office space. The company develops and markets veterinary diagnostic kits and reagents worldwide.
“I enjoyed my hard hat tour of the development. It looks like this will be a smart place to work. I met with a few other occupants too and hopefully this will give rise to opportunities for collaboration once we move in later this summer."
Dr Neil J Watt, MV Diagnostics LtdSite tours are available to prospective tenants and are generally conducted on Friday afternoons. If you are interested in joining one of the groups please email Frances Burgess.
