Pioneer Group has received planning permission for 54,500 sq ft of purpose-built lab space at Cardiff Edge Science Park.
The company intends to deliver a two-storey building that can be let in its entirety or split across several units, alongside 10,000 sq ft of amenity space, offering facilities such as a restaurant, café and flexible meeting and work spaces.
Pioneer Group acquired the 30-acre Cardiff Edge Science Park in April 2021. The park comprises 180,000 sq ft of life sciences, R&D and office space across seven buildings and is situated five miles north of Cardiff city centre.
Simon Hoad, director at Pioneer Group, said: “Our expansion plans at Cardiff Edge will ensure crucial capacity for the growth and development of various exciting fields of healthcare – such as genomics, diagnostics and other sub sectors. State-of-the-art designs will introduce flexible layouts that will harness the power of collaboration to drive first-rate research and knowledge outcomes.”
