The announcement in June of a new biotech cluster development that is unique in Canada has set off another buzz of excitement in the Montréal region, especially for industrial space for rent. The Quebec government, Investissement Québec, the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS), the Laval Technopole, and the City of Laval announced the investment of $250 million over the next 5 years for the development of a center of excellence that will serve biotech, biopharmaceutical, and biocomputer companies.
The City of Biotechnology and Human Health of Metropolitan Montréal, or Biotech City, will be the equivalent of a business and science center. The science and High Technology Park (which is already home to 30 biotech, biopharmaceutical, and information technology companies and research centers, including big names such as Shire, Roche Diagnostics, and Servier), Biotech City will be home for biotech and biopharmaceutical companies as well as housing numerous specialized centers for research, learning, and commercial development which will all rent industrial space, including:
There will be industrial space for rent and office space for rent in
-The Microbiology and Biotechnology Center
-The Human Health Research Center
-The Experimental Biology Center
-The Plant Biology Center
-The Bioscience Training and Interpretation Center, which will have rooms for exhibits, training sessions, conferences, video conferencing, and a virtual library and will accommodate the head office of the Biotech City
There are many advantages of doing business in Quebec for biotech and pharmaceutical companies because of generous tax credits, low construction and industrial space for rent and operational costs compared to most cities in the U.S., there is a skilled and bilingual labor force.
