In the news
Launch of the Éco-campus Hubert Reeves
On October 17th, 2017, Technoparc Montréal and FPInnovations concluded the purchase of land by FPInnovations for its implementation at the Technoparc. The lands, totaling over 360,000 square feet (33,400 square meters), are located in the southern part of the Montreal Technoparc, the Éco-campus Hubert Reeves section. This new milestone symbolizes the launch of the Éco-campus Hubert Reeves, Technoparc Montréal’s innovative and integrative project in which businesses can evolve in an eco-territory. More information on this announcement in the various articles from the Press Release, TMX Money, Journal Métro and Les Affaires.
Green Cross Biotherapeutics opens at Technoparc
October 30th, 2017 marked the official opening of the Green Cross Biotherapeutics building at the Technoparc. More than 200 guests showed up, including several dignitaries from different levels of government. The addition of this investment of more than $ 400 million and 225 highly qualified employees in the health sciences represents the largest investment of the last ten years in the Quebec and Canadian biopharmaceutical industry. Excellent news for the Technoparc and the economy of the city. We invite you to learn more through the articles (in French) from the newspaper Les Affaires, le Journal de Montréal and the press release from the Cabinet de la vice-première ministre, ministre de l’Économie, de la Science et de l’Innovation et ministre responsable de la Stratégie numérique.
The REM, a huge asset for Technoparc
Excerpt from an article published on the site renx.ca: “Montreal’s Technoparc could emerge as the victor of the leasing stakes when the city gets its new light-rail transit network, says Laurent Benarrous, principal at Avison & Young in Montreal. When the REM (Réseau électrique métropolitain) is completed, it will be the science and high-tech companies on the campus in the borough of Saint-Laurent “that emerges as the winner,” Benarrous says. The Technoparc Montréal will have its own dedicated REM station when the 67-kilometre line is completed in 2020 or 2021, one stop away from the line serving Pierre Elliot Trudeau International Airport. Benarrous says tech companies such as gaming firm Ubisoft are scattered across several buildings in the district. But such companies are now big enough to go from “cool loft spaces” to having their own integrated campuses.” Click this link to read the whole article.
