Our locations
35 years in the service of innovation
The Heidelberg Technology Park has provided laboratories, clean rooms and offices for scientific and technological companies for more than three decades. We have become one of the prime locations for research-intensive company start-ups and growth companies worldwide. Our tenants value their proximity to renowned research facilities and companies, as well as the quality of life in Heidelberg.
Life Sciences
Biotechnology, pharmacy, biology
Laboratories for research in the life sciences
Our Im Neuenheimer Feld location is predominantly tenanted by biotech companies: Due to its proximity to the university and medical campus, high-tech company start-ups in particular have been settling here since the 80s.
The Heidelberg Technology Park has been densely populated with such facilities promoting research and development ever since it opened its doors. It therefore stands to reason that the BioRN leading-edge cluster also be based in the technology park itself.
Technology Park, Im Neuenheimer Feld
Business Development Center Heidelberg
Spaces for high-tech in Heidelberg
Clean rooms and workshops
Ever since InnovationLab, the leading-edge cluster for organic electronics in Heidelberg, was set up and the Center for Advanced Materials at Heidelberg University opened this year, Heidelberg has established itself as the central location for this new leading-edge technology.
The Heidelberg Technology Park takes up the theme and has been building a new location on the site of the constantly growing top cluster on Carl-Friedrich-Gauß-Ring. The aim of the InnovationLab is to print electronic components on a mass scale in an energy and environmentally friendly manner. Printed electronics will thus replace the well-known semiconductor technology and open up completely new possibilities for design, technology and sustainability. Since 2019, the Business Development Center Heidelberg has also been providing 4,400 square meters of offices, laboratories, workshops and S2 wet labs, as well as CoWorking Spaces, SeedLabs, Café and Conference Center, for founders in the electronics sector.
Environmental Technology
Sustainability
Spaces for environmental engineers
In addition to biotechnology and printed electronics, the technology park in Heidelberg also houses a large number of environmental engineering firms at the Heinsteinwerk location. Following extensive reconstruction, the former factory building offers a total of six floors of office space for up to 17 rental units, as well as a restaurant on the ground floor.
This creates the ideal atmosphere for engineering firms to develop technical and technological procedures that help protect the environment and restore already damaged ecosystems.
Business Incubator
Testing ideas
Individual offices and short termination periods
Our business incubator is the first port of call for young and creative minds wanting to set up and locate their new company. It is funded by the city of Heidelberg and the Initiative for Start-ups and Business Transfers (ifex) of the Ministry of Economic Affairs of Baden-Württemberg, with funds from the European Social Fund, and managed by Technologiepark Heidelberg GmbH.
As part of the rental agreement, young companies benefit from the support of HeidelbergStartupPartners. No specific industry is targeted—each and every idea is welcome and deserves a chance.
Associate membership
Heidelberg Technology Park is spread across the city
Regardless of whether you have managed to secure a place at one of our technology parks, or are a successful company with your own offices or a service provider operating worldwide, you can benefit from both our services and our network. An associate membership grants you the same benefits our tenants enjoy, no matter where your company is located.

Event invitations
We regularly invite our tenants and associate members to exclusive events: Scientific lunch lectures, fireside chats for founders and entrepreneurs, our annual summer party—apart from knowledge transfer, our events are all about networking.
Access to our network
Tenants and associate members are part of our innovation community. We actively promote networking, assist in the search for partners, and further your interests in our international, national, and regional memberships, networks, and partnerships.

Committed to ecology
The UmweltPark (Environmental Park) is a further trendsetting high-tech location in the city on the Neckar. The first environmental technology and environmental economics companies settled in the technology park as early as the mid 80s.
In 2005, the Umweltkompetenzzentrum Rhein-Neckar e. V. (UKOM) opened its own environmental competence center here, in the Heinstein factories established in 1911: A total of 1,700 m2 of thinking space specifically designed for the needs of this growth industry. Due to high demand, the construction of an annex is already underway this year. All this to achieve even more dynamism and progress at this high-tech location for the environment in Heidelberg.
