RoslinCT continues its growth plans by expanding its operations at Edinburgh Technopole
Edinburgh, UK, 08 June 2022 – RoslinCT – a cell and gene therapy/ATMP CDMO, developing life-changing cell and gene therapies in Edinburgh’s BioQuarter– signs lease for 1,453 sqm additional space at Charles Darwin House at the Edinburgh Technopole.
The additional space will include fully fitted Process Development labs and offices to further support RoslinCT’s growth plans. The Process Development lab space (511m2) gives the company expanded capabilities not only for pluripotent cell processing and genome editing but also on viral cell modification and greater scale up/scale out of cell therapy manufacturing processes and will allow the further expansion of the business. The fit-out of the new space has been completed and has already welcomed the RoslinCT Process Development team.
The brand-new office space further supports the company’s rapid growth and provides ample space for 20+ team members to continue offering bespoke cell and gene therapy services to clients worldwide.
Last year, the company introduced its brand-new state-of-the-art cell and gene therapy manufacturing facility and more than doubled its headcount in 2021.
“Continuing our rapid growth, I am very pleased with the expansion of our operations to Edinburgh Technopole.”, says Peter Coleman, CEO of RoslinCT. “This new location provides us with the opportunity to further expand our Process Development capacity and capabilities and meet the growing needs of our sector.”
