Riverlabs

Riverlabs - A New Hub for Science & Innovation in the Golden Triangle Riverlabs is a 28-acre science & innovation campus located in Ware, Hertfordshire, at the heart of the Golden Triangle. It reimagines the former GSK site, delivering a flexible, future-ready campus designed for R&D, manufacturing, CROs and advanced technology firms. Key Highlights: • Phase 1 (Riverlabs 1): 96,742 sq ft of high-specification CL2/3 lab, write-up and office space, available for occupation from Q4 2025. • Scalable campus model: across multiple phases, Riverlabs can deliver up to sq ft of lab, office and manufacturing space, with flexibility for bespoke builds or refurbishments. • Premium technical specification: the site is built for high-end lab use, with infrastructure such as fume extraction, high air change capability, interstitial plant decks, backup power options, and adaptable CAT A / CAT B fit-outs. • Sustainability & retrofit-led approach: by reusing existing structures, Riverlabs anticipates ~75% embodied carbon savings versus equivalent new build. Fossil fuel usage has been removed from site meaning operational net zero carbon can be targeted. • Exceptional value: the campus will offer world-class infrastructure at >50% cost saving relative to similar lab space in London or Cambridge. • Talent & location advantages: over science & innovation professionals are within commuting distance. • Access & connectivity: well situated between the A1(M) and M11 corridors, and within ~45 minutes of major clusters like London (direct rail link) and Cambridge. • Quality of life & amenities: riverside settings, 15 acres of green/open space, sports facilities, and proximity to Ware town centre and station via riverside walk Contact: Will Heigham +44 7860 Will.Heigham@jll.com Donya Lotfi-Pour +44 7752 467436 Donya.Lotfi-Pour@jll.com Liam Nicholls +44 7884 869 400 liam.nicholls@creativeplaces.com Seb Denby +44 7810 242 194 seb.denby@creativeplaces.com
