A delegation from Cambridge鈥檚 twin-town in Hungary visited the 探花直播鈥檚 West Cambridge site on a fact-finding mission.

探花直播Mayor of Szeged, Dr Laszlo Botka, toured the 探花直播鈥檚 expanding science and technology campus with the Mayor of Cambridge, Cllr Robert Dryden. He saw at first-hand how the 探花直播 is developing its facilities, making the most of its available land and making provision for the future in partnership with business.

探花直播West Cambridge site has long been home to the Cavendish Laboratory for the Department of Physics, the Whittle Laboratory, specialising in research into the fluid dynamics and thermodynamics of all types of turbomachinery, and the Department of Veterinary Medicine.

Also long-established at West Cambridge are British Antartic Survey, Schlumberger Cambridge Research, Aveva Group plc (formerly CadCentre) and the Hitachi Cambridge Laboratory.

探花直播future of the 66 hectare site was transformed in 1999 when total new development of over 180,000 m² of academic, research institute, residential ,sports and other facilities, including 41,000m² of new commercial research accommodation, was approved.

探花直播William Gates Building, completed in 2001, houses the 探花直播 Computer Laboratory while next door the Roger Needham Building is home to the European headquarters of Microsoft Research. Next to that is the newly-completed home of the Electrical Engineering Division of the Department of Engineering, and next to that the Centre for Nanoscience.

2007 will see work begin on three new buildings: 探花直播Physics of Medicine is a 拢12.5 million project designed by Building Design Partnership, which is effectively the first phase of the replacement of the Cavendish buildings; the East Forum will provide a home for Cambridge Enterprise, a restaurant for the site and accommodation for start-up companies; and there will be a new 拢11.6 million home for the Institute for Manufacturing, to the west of the two blocks of apartments.
