A Q&A with Breakthrough Properties

As part of this quarter’s Golden Triangle Life Sciences Marketbeat, we sat down with Breakthrough Properties to gather frontline insight from a sector-specialist platform. The discussion explores how the life sciences real estate landscape is evolving across the UK and Europe, and what these shifts mean for the Golden Triangle’s competitiveness in a global context. Their perspective provides an understanding of both near-term market pressures and the structural drivers that continue to underpin demand for high-quality lab space.

Across the Q&A, Breakthrough share their outlook on supply and demand conditions, highlight how sector-specialist platforms are outperforming, and outline where they see opportunities emerging in both established and nascent European hubs like Amsterdam and Copenhagen. The conversation also touches on capital markets trends, including lender appetite for lab-enabled product and the extent to which easing interest rates are influencing financing dynamics.

Breakthrough provide further insight into the strategic advantages of the Bellco ecosystem, the positioning of the Golden Triangle relative to major US clusters, and the factors shaping demand beyond Oxford, Cambridge and London. The discussion also addresses the role of government policy in strengthening the UK’s competitiveness and concludes with an overview of evolving development trends.
