Ideal ecosystem for innovation

A direct connection to universities, science and research is essential in order to create a perfect ecosystem for innovative start-ups.

Incubator: nucleus for start-ups

The first completed area and at the same time the heart of the location will be the incubator. The regional business development agency will rent start-up space there. Young companies will be able to use experimental laboratories and small workshops here.

A comprehensive startup ecosystem

The incubator is part of a comprehensive start-up ecosystem that integrates Leibniz University's Mechanical Engineering Campus Garbsen and other higher education institutions in the Hannover Region. A cooperation agreement on the content of the incubator and other parts of the ONE Tech Campus has already been concluded between the Hannover Region and Leibniz Universität.

Unique location advantages

The proximity of the ONE Tech Campus to the Mechanical Engineering Campus offers a unique locational advantage in Germany. The other buildings on the ONE Tech Campus are being developed step by step. They could, for example, accommodate uses such as R&D departments of companies and non-university research institutions.

Schedule and outlook

The development plan of the city of Garbsen will become legally binding at the beginning of next year. The investor's construction plans and the building permit should be completed in the course of 2025, so that construction can begin at the end of 2025 or in spring 2026 at the latest.
