Our specialist knowledge in the field of knowledge-intensive housing enables us to offer accommodation that perfectly matches the needs of your company. Establishing a business at the BioPartner Center does not only mean an excellent workplace and access to the science park, but also access to a large network of companies and institutions active in the life sciences, food and health sectors in the Food Valley region.

We have 20+ years of experience

Founded in the 1990s, the specialisation of Kadans Science Partner truly began with the 2009 acquisition of BioPartner Center Wageningen, an organisation established in 2000 to support the valorisation of fundamental research conducted at the Wageningen University & Research Campus, marking our first multi-tenant buildings for start-ups, scale-ups and corporate R&Ds. Since then, we have curated a much wider offering that is built for innovation. In 2010, Kadans Science Partner was founded to reflect this evolution, expanding our development focus to knowledge intensive real estate investments in the Netherlands. Kadans now operates as an international leader in the UK, Germany, Belgium, France, and most recently Spain, servicing over 400 clients within 27 science clusters in 6 countries.

Backed by AXA IM – Real Assets since 2020, our network continues to grow as we develop more locations and support more science clusters across Europe. Our market pioneering approach reflects Kadans’ objective to become the European HUB for all stakeholders in the life sciences sector in the near future.
