Phase 1 European Marine Science Park, Dunstaffnage, PA37 1QA

9,267 to 19,350 Sq Ft / Offices

Withdrawn - Last updated: 15 February 2016

The European Marine Science Park in Argyll is one of HIE’s current major infrastructure investments. Marine science has been conducted on this site for over a century. The Phase 1 building will form part of a larger campus and international centre of excellence incorporating marine science, research and development, education and commercial activity. It is anticipated that the European Marine Science Park will be of particular interest to start-up businesses, spin-outs and SMEs who are interested in the combination of an outstanding marine environment with world-class scientific research available at this location. The Science Park will create and nurture an environment where businesses can thrive in a cluster of scientific expertise. First-class business support will be available to all tenants from Highlands and Islands Enterprise and Scottish Development International to ensure that the businesses operate effectively and profitably in the shortest time possible.

Phase 1 is presently under construction and will be completed by October 2012. This phase will include laboratory and office space in a highly sustainable building in this stunning location. Phase 2 and beyond will be determined by demand and sector development. The total development at the Science Park will be 5,400 sq m to be built in phases spanning a period of 10 years. The first phase building due for completion in autumn 2012 will provide accommodation capable of meeting the requirements of researched based organisations through the provision of laboratories or alternatively high quality office accommodation. The building has been designed with flexibility and can accommodate a wide range of occupier requirements. The first phase will provide a high quality sustainable building containing accelerator space for expanding companies.

The Scottish Marine Institute delivers research and education that aim to improve our understanding and sustainable use of the marine environment. It is home to the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS), an internationally respected oceanographic research organisation. Based at Dunstaffnage for over a hundred years, SAMS aims to increase knowledge of the marine environment through research, education, knowledge and exchange in services business. The organisation maintains two strategic partnerships, the new University of the Highlands and Islands and the UK’s Natural Environment Research Council.
