MIND Milano Innovation District is Italy’s new center of excellence focused on Life Sciences, social innovation, and sustainability. Designed as a contemporary international innovation ecosystem, an environment for knowledge exchange and sustainable growth, MIND covers an area of 1 million square meters and is open to researchers, students, institutions, businesses, and citizens, offering a space where innovation thrives. This district represents a unique opportunity for Italy: a strategic urban development that drives collective progress, located in a prime position in Northern Italy. MIND is built around the major global challenges of our time — the environment, health and well-being, and social inclusion. It serves as a testing ground for new working methods, advanced technologies, and a more sustainable approach to urban living. MIND stands as a key reference point for innovation and knowledge sharing, promoting international connectivity. What truly sets it apart is not just its impressive scale, but the presence of top-tier institutions in Life Sciences and a deeply integrated ecosystem designed to enhance opportunities and bolster collaboration. A total of 295,400 square meters of public facilities have already been built (Human Technopole, the University of Milan Campus, and the IRCCS Galeazzi-Sant’Ambrogio Hospital) or are currently under construction, along with 43,575 square meters of private facilities (offices and light industrial spaces).
