Kadans Science Partner has leased space to AviadoBio at its recently completed wet lab innovation and flexible workspace centre at 20 Water Street in Canary Wharf.
The centre comprises 40,000 sq ft of fully fitted, flexible, wet labs, ranging from bespoke 250 sq ft space to labs offering more than 2,000 sq ft.
Lisa Deschamps, CEO of AviadoBio, said: “We are very excited about our new partnership with Kadans and our laboratory and office space in the innovation centre at Canary Wharf. A state-of-the-art space allows us to more comfortably accommodate our growing team who is focused on developing and delivering transformative gene therapies for diseases including frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Additionally, the accessibility to others in the life science space further supports our company’s culture and focus on nurturing breakthrough discoveries.”
Claudia Tripp, commercial asset manager at Kadans Science Partner, added: “Attracting AviadoBio to the innovation centre so soon after its opening underscores both the level of demand for flexible, high quality wet lab facilities and high quality of the product we have delivered at 20 Water Street.
“It is also an illustration of the strong momentum we continue to generate in creating a go-to destination for health and life sciences organisations of all sizes at Canary Wharf. This facility also allows us to further strengthen our relationship with AviadoBio as we look to provide much needed space for start-up and early-stage companies who can subsequently grow with us at Canary Wharf.”
