TSPC Group has won the contract for the concept, outline, permit and construction design of the second phase of the Science and Innovation Park, which is part of the science park project to be implemented by the University of Győr in the heart of the city.
From factory to innovation centre
The project aims to create a university-based innovation centre that will support spinoffs and start-ups, provide creative workspace and incubation programmes in close cooperation between industry, research and higher education. The university intends to build the Science and Innovation Park on the site of the former Győr Biscuit and Waffle Factory, in the Sziget district of the city, on the area bordered by Töltésszer, Aurél Stromfeld and Lazaret streets.
A previous milestone of the project was the inauguration of the new six-storey, nearly 4000 m² building of the Science and Innovation Park. The ‘Kocka’ (Cube) was created by converting the warehouse of the former Győr Biscuit Factory. In this refurbishment project, which started in 2022, TSPC Group was responsible for the general design in a Design&Build construct, while WHB and Euro-Generals were responsible for the construction. Through an innovative digital facade solution, the ‘Cube’ building—once a concrete remnant of the old Biscuit Factory—has been transformed into a symbol of the project.
General design tasks
TSPC Group is contracted to carry out a comprehensive general design task, including:
- Research & development, education and conference: the planned multifunctional building complex will offer spaces that meet the modern requirements of research and development as well as education.
