Open Day 2019
With a festive event and 150 guests of honor and an open day BioPark Regensburg GmbH celebrated the company’s anniversary. The guests were able to see on-site for themselves the 20-year success story. From 1999 to 2019 the ground space occupied has increased threefold, the number of companies fourfold and the number of jobs by even tenfold.
The Open Day on Saturday 13 July 2019 offered interested visitors a view behind the biotech curtains. A varied program was offered in all three buildings. In addition to exciting laboratory tours and leaseholder information stands, people could experience the technology and ideas of tomorrow in the so-called Inno-Truck, a two-level exhibition vehicle. People visiting Open Day were able to find out information about the various fields of biotechnology, medical engineering, diagnostics and analytics as well as health.
How is a new medicine developed? What are technical enzymes? How do you look for new active substances for a medicine? These questions were able to be answered right up close. A high point was once again the scavenger hunt for young scientists through the three buildings at the end of which a small so-called agar garden made in the laboratory was the enticing prize that you can simply watch while it grows for a year.
