For early-stage to mature bioscience companies, the UMB BioPark offers a sophisticated laboratory and office environment on UMB’s vibrant academic medical center campus.

The 10-acre BioPark on the west side of campus will boast 1.2 million square feet of lab and office space in ten buildings plus garage parking and landscaped parks at final build-out. By Fall 2007, 360,000 square feet in two multi tenant buildings and one garage will be completed and initial development plans for a third similar building are underway.

BioPark building designs maximize flexibility to accommodate a range of occupancies from 750-square-foot lab and office suites in a dedicated BioAccelerator to full floor users. Infrastructure meets the requirements of the most demanding science environments while permitting optimum internal planning flexibility with minimum intrusions.
