Y-PARC Swiss Technopole, the engine roars louder!
“The key is to offer flexibility. Everything has been thought out for these needs: coaching, flexibility, short-term leases for startups, complementary activities for SMEs… In particular, we have negotiated with certain building owners so they amortize the cost of fitting out the laboratories over the term of the lease, instead of the company having to turn to a bank. We also have one-year leases, which is rare for commercial leases, where they usually run for five years, which is something a startup can hardly commit to”. Juliana Pantet, Director of Y-PARC Swiss Technopole SA.
