No. 11 Mereside launches at Alderley Park

The 35,000 sq ft of redeveloped workspace at No. 11 Mereside at the Alderley Park life sciences and technology campus has now been opened by Bruntwood SciTech.

Completion of the new office will create more space for innovating science and technology firms to join the likes of Sai Life Sciences, Cisco, Peak Software and SCIEX at the internationally-recognised business hub.

The latest specialist workspace has been brought forward by Bruntwood SciTech, a 50:50 joint venture between Bruntwood and Legal & General, as part of its long term masterplan for Alderley Park and has been designed with the evolving, collaborative working style of the science and technology sector in mind. Plans were approved earlier this month for a further 200,000 sq ft of lab and office space to be built at the science and technology campus as part of the developers plans for growing the site.

The £3.8 million waterside scheme will offer three floors of specialist category A workspace with offices available from 500 sq ft up to 30,000 sq ft, as well as breakout spaces and meeting rooms. Businesses will also be able to take advantage of the full range of amenities across the Alderley Park campus, including a 232-seat auditorium, on-site gym and sports pitches, and The Churchill Tree pub.

No. 11 Mereside includes a series of sustainable technologies – including a design that minimises heat loss and smart systems to optimise energy efficiency – as part of Bruntwood SciTech’s 2030 net zero target.

Mark Julian, Head of Commercial at Bruntwood SciTech, said:

“No. 11 Mereside will further enhance the reputation of Alderley Park as a world-leading campus for science, technology, and innovation.

“The science and tech sector is witnessing rapid and continued growth, and the call for modern, sustainable workspaces that put employee wellbeing and productivity first, will appeal to the best specialist talent. No. 11 Mereside has been developed with this in mind and we’re looking forward to those incoming businesses not only enjoying its benefits but also using them as a catalyst to grow.”
