"We are very pleased to welcome Amgen to Campus Solna. Their presence will help to further strengthen Hagastaden as a leading place for research and innovation in life science. We look forward to ensuring that their new office meets the specific needs and requirements that Amgen has to create an optimal working environment for its employees," says Robert Otterstål, Property Manager at Akademiska Hus.
"We are looking forward to the move to our new office in Hagastaden. Hagastaden's strategic location, with its proximity to Karolinska Institutet and Karolinska University Hospital and the rapidly growing life science cluster in the area, gives us a unique position at the heart of Swedish medical innovation, which will make collaborations even smoother. The high accessibility, with close connections to Stockholm and various modes of transport such as trains, buses and the metro, makes it an optimal location for both our employees and our partners. It is an inspiring environment that will be an excellent base for our Swedish office, which will provide great opportunities for continuous development for our employees and to build on our already strong corporate culture," says Karin Järperud, Country Director Sweden at Amgen.
About Campus Solna
Campus Solna is an important part of the emerging Hagastaden – the inner city district where Stockholm and Solna meet, and which is being developed with housing, retail, the metro, culture and park areas. Here, society, universities and business have joined forces with the goal of creating one of the world's strongest life science clusters. Akademiska Hus offers a unique opportunity for new players to establish themselves in the field and take part in the central meeting places that are created, where students, researchers, entrepreneurs and start-up companies can come together for knowledge exchange and innovation. In a number of different buildings, it is possible for life science players to rent everything from a single office chair and lab bench to premises with space for larger lab environments and entire head offices.
