University of Manchester Core Technology Facility

The Core Technology Facility provides complementary space to the successful Manchester Bioscience Incubator. The building was funded by both the Northwest Development Agency (NWDA, £11m) and European Regional Development Funds (ERDF, £7m) to develop and build "grow-on" and additional incubation space for biotechnology and hi-tech start-ups and SMEs. Furthermore, The University of Manchester provided significant investment for two additional floors of academic research activity in Life Sciences and Medicine.
