A science space pop-up similar in style to BoxPark has signed a deal to open its first cluster of labs under a single roof.
Opencell has signed a deal to take around 15,000 sq ft at the Westworks Building in White City, W12, for its first “BioHotel”. It also plans to create a cluster of small labs available for short-term rent.
There will also be a lab coat laundry service, PPE vending machines and a store selling pipettes and other products on site.
OpenCell was founded in 2018, offering life sciences start-ups space in shipping containers converted into labs. The new site will be the firm’s largest venue.
