ioLabs@NYU Langone has signed a 46,000‑sq‑ft lease at Innolabs, a purpose‑built research hub in Long Island City developed by King Street Properties and GFP Real Estate. The move relocates the incubator from its Manhattan Varick Street site to a larger, newly constructed space tailored for early‑stage biotech firms.

    BioLabs, headquartered in Boston, runs the world’s largest network of co‑working laboratory facilities across the U.S., Europe, and Japan. Its sites offer seed‑stage companies turnkey wet‑lab space, shared equipment, and programs that connect founders with investors, partners, and peers.

    “We’re proud to support NYU Langone and BioLabs in nurturing groundbreaking companies at the earliest stages,” said Ed Jaram of King Street Properties. “This addition reinforces Innolabs as a premier destination for life‑science startups in New York City.”

    NYU Langone’s Vicki Match Suna, executive vice president and vice dean for real‑estate development, said the new location will accelerate the city’s commercial life‑science growth and aid spin‑outs from its research programs. “Startups will gain expanded access to the resources, community, and infrastructure they need to drive innovation,” she added.

    BioLabs CEO Johannes Fruehauf noted that the new site will deepen the incubator’s partnership with NYU Langone, playing a pivotal role in the Innolabs ecosystem to fuel discovery, innovation, and economic growth for the city.

    The 267,000‑sq‑ft Innolabs complex houses research and office space, a café, event area, bike storage, and locker rooms. GFP Real Estate co‑CEO Brian Steinwurtzel said the addition of BioLabs strengthens Innolabs’ position as a home for early‑stage companies and reaffirms New York City’s status as a leading life‑science hub.

    The new BioLabs@NYU Langone facility is now open to early‑stage biotechnology firms.
