Toulouse White Biotechnology (TWB) has moved on the campus of INSA Toulouse, almost doubling the surface area of its premises to support its growth and the development of its activities.
Press release: “TWB s’installe sur le campus de l’INSA Toulouse pour créer un complexe de biotechnologies industrielles unique en France”, 04/02/2021.
At the end of January 2021, TWB completed its installation in its new premises, located in Toulouse on the campus of INSA. With a surface area of 3,300 m2 (compared to 1,800 m2 previously), this new building was designed to meet TWB’s needs and the diversity of its activities. After 2 years of works, the new building hosts all its support services and technological platforms and currently hosts 5 start-ups. TWB has also chosen to reserve almost 15% of its space for these young companies, which have their own offices and laboratories at TWB and access to all common areas. The building now hosts a total of more than 110 people.
The installation of TWB has enabled the creation of a 15,000 m2 industrial biotechnology complex that is unique in France. The 7 M€ operation was financed within the framework of the Contrat de Plan Etat – Région (CPER) Occitanie and the Toulouse Campus Project and supplemented by TWB’s own funds.
