Since its inception, NSG BioLabs has been supporting biotech startups and multinational companies by providing BSL-2 certified private and shared laboratory spaces and offices, equipment, as well as privileged access with service providers and suppliers, and community engagement.
After its first site opening in November 2019, NSG BioLabs expanded with its second site in August 2021, and recently in 2023 with its third site. Now, with three sites totalling 35,000 square feet located in the heart of Singapore’s R&D ecosystem, NSG BioLabs cements its space as a key hub for biotech innovation.
