SLS moves to BioCity Scotland
Oct 14 2015
Scientific Laboratory Supplies (SLS) has relocated its Scottish operations to BioCity’s Newhouse bioscience business incubator, signifying the company’s commitment to investing in science in Scotland and consolidating its existing relationship with the wider BioCity Group.
Peter Chapman, founder and CEO of Scientific Laboratory Supplies says: “We chose to relocate from Coatbridge to BioCity Scotland, because I want to see our Scottish colleagues fully embedded in the life sciences community here. By joining this community of like-minded people, we can play our part in supporting world-class science innovation and its commercialisation.”
BioCity Scotland was recently granted Enterprise Area status, which provides additional incentives for companies joining the facility. Other developments at the site include the forthcoming launch of MediCity Scotland later this autumn, which will support the commercialisation of medical technologies, and the opening of the Innovation Hub for early stage companies.
Manager Director of BioCity Scotland, Diane Harbison adds: “Having SLS on site will add enormous value to the community here, both in terms of access to their laboratory product expertise and training, but also their willingness to network and share industry contacts with us. Thanks to the Scottish Government’s recent announcement that BioCity is to become an Enterprise Area, we will also soon be able to offer SLS business rates relief, faster planning applications, skills support and assistance in accessing international markets. We are looking forward to helping Peter and his team with their ambitions for growth.”
