‘Lab-to-let’ program arrives in Australia
A new concept in laboratory management is offering flexible, high-end lab spaces for rental in the heart of Sydney.
‘Lab-to-let’ is a partnership between G3lab and Wotso WorkSpace, which will give start-ups and research projects access to state-of-the-art lab fit-out with low entry costs, fixed overheads and flexibility to suit changing needs.
The facility offers conventional lab owners a range of overhead-management options, including fixed cost contracts, energy monitoring and reporting, and externally managed facilities. The building also houses shared office areas, break-out zones and a cafe for a collaborative environment in which science thrives.
Max Englisch, Asia-Pacific manager for WALDNER, which is supplying the lab fit-out, said, “Many in the research sector now agree that the ‘real magic’ often happens when scientists interact with each other - our fit-out systems, applied to the Australian Lab-to-let model, will make for rewarding science spaces where teamwork thrives.”
The model is based on similar facilities in Europe, the US and UK. For more information, visit http://g3lab.com/lab_space_to_let.html.
