In the technology centres located within the State of Bremen, and also at its universities and academic institutions, biotechnology companies will find plenty of room for the development of innovative products and services. New trails are being blazed here by the Biotechnology Centre in Bremerhaven, the Bremen Centre for Innovation and Technology (BITZ), and the International University Bremen.
The Technicum (a repository for technical equipment) at the Biotechnology Centre in Bremerhaven provides the resident companies with the most modern apparatus, which reduces the high level of capital tie-up which would otherwise be necessary in the start-up phase. These items, together with the technical facilities at the scientific facilities, are available to companies on a rental basis (technology pool).
