CTP has announced the launch of what it describes as “a new ambitious project within its T-Park technology campus,” which is located in Ostrava, in the Czech Republic.
According to CTP, the project involves a multifunctional T6 building and will involve the creation of a space “that connects the scientific community, innovative start-ups, established companies and students, across a total area of approximately 30,000 square meters.
The project, representing an estimated investment of EUR 50 million, is due for completion at the end of 2027.
According to CTP, T-Park, which is managed by the Moravian-Silesian Innovation Centre Ostrava (MSIC), “is already a recognized center of technological research and development,” and is home to “a number of innovative companies such as Porsche Engineering or Invent Medical operate here.” According to the developer, “the new T6 building takes this potential even further. The building will combine key functions into one multifunctional space that offers five floors of modern and flexible space, including state-of-the-art offices, development labs, coworking zones, CTBoxes and prototype workshops. A café will be created on the ground floor of the building to serve not only tenants but also visitors to T-Park and contribute to the development of community life in the area. The project will also include dozens of fully equipped rental apartments and two underground floors with parking areas totaling 9,000 square meters, providing comfortable facilities for tenants and visitors.”
“The T6 project goes hand in hand with our strategy to build spaces that foster true collaboration between companies, research and talented professionals,” said Jakub Kodr, Head of Business Development CTP Czech Republic. “Ostrava has long been a key region for us with exceptional innovation potential. Moreover, T-Park’s close proximity to the VSB-TUO campus naturally connects our tenants with those who bring new ideas and technologies. T6 brings a space that is not only about modern infrastructure, but above all about creating an ecosystem where ideas become reality.”
“It is crucial for VSB-TUO to have facilities close by that support technology transfer and create opportunities for our talent right on the doorstep of the university,” said Professr Igor Ivan, Vice-Rector for Strategy and Cooperation at VSB-TUO. “This project strengthens not only our university, but also Ostrava’s position as a centre of technological progress.”
“Our common goal with CTP is to create an environment that connects research, development, and business,” said Adéla Hradilova, chairwoman of the MSIC board of directors. “The T6 building will be a vibrant place where scientific and commercial innovation meet. In addition, this project brings sustainable development to the region, which not only strengthens the economic, but also the social and educational aspects.”
The T6 building will, CTP reports, “be certified to the highest BREEAM standards and will include green roofs, rainwater harvesting systems and solar panels.” In addition, CTP claims, “the building interiors will be optimized for maximum energy efficiency. As part of the development, CTP has committed to, among other things, the construction of a surface road, as well as the preservation of the character of the open park towards the Poruba Forest Park.”
