Walter Science opens its first space in Basel

A mixed offering

Driven by the Walter Science offer, it is organized into two buildings connected by a footbridge:

• The K-25 hosts open‑plan offices, private offices, meeting rooms, and event spaces.
• The K-410 brings together several types of laboratories (plug & play or customized).

Thus, scientific companies will ultimately benefit from a mixed offer combining offices and laboratories within a single ecosystem. This immediate proximity between administrative, collaborative, technical, and experimental spaces facilitates exchanges, reduces travel time, and accelerates development cycles. It also allows teams to grow without changing their address, to strengthen internal synergies, and to establish themselves sustainably in an environment designed to support scientific innovation.

A leading hub for science

Establishing a presence in Basel means joining one of Europe’s most dynamic regions for science, research, and biotechnology. The city is a crossroads where innovation, the pharmaceutical industry, and leading academic institutions meet. An environment where research advances quickly, driven by a demanding and collaborative international community.

Walter Science is setting up in the heart of the future Klybeck Campus, a vast urban transformation project where a new hybrid district is taking shape, blending housing, culture, innovation, and scientific activities. This anchoring makes it possible to create spaces that are not only technical, but truly connected to the life of the territory and its stakeholders.

The Walter Science offering within Walter

Walter Science is Walter’s dedicated offering for scientific environments. It reflects a strong conviction: technical spaces, even the most demanding ones, must remain flexible, inspiring, and designed for the people who use them.

By drawing on Walter’s expertise — operations, services, community management, maintenance, and user experience — Walter Science creates turnkey scientific spaces that function smoothly on a daily basis while supporting innovation. Offices, laboratories, technical areas, shared services: together, they form an agile ecosystem capable of supporting every stage of R&D.

The opening of the K‑25 marks the first milestone in the Walter Klybeck ecosystem. With the forthcoming arrival of the K‑410, it will become a complete destination dedicated to innovative companies seeking to establish themselves, grow, and collaborate within one of Europe’s most stimulating scientific hubs.
