John Prescott MP views plans for Kent Science Park

Kent Science Park announces its new brand and plans for expansion and development as a key science resource for London and the South-East.

LaSalle Investment Management will expand the 125 acre site to provide crucial grow-on space and specialised premises for biotechnology and other science firms as the revival in the industry continues.

Plans include improvements to the transport infrastructure, connection to a high-speed broadband highway, the addition of quality housing in line with the UK’s Sustainable Communities Plan and the development of leisure and hotel facilities.

Kent Science Park is part of an established knowledge network in the South East and includes an Enterprise Hub to help fledgling technology businesses. It will now be an important resource for biotechnology companies, providing grow-on space to allow them to build up critical mass and retaining skilled jobs in the area.
