Life Sciences Track

Bench time today. Anchor tenant tomorrow.

Convergence Labs is the life sciences track of the Convergence program — industrial-grade wet lab access at Discovery Park, on a campus already anchored by world-class innovation like Alimentiv, KGK Science.

What you get

Wet bench access. Subsidized rates. No long lease.

Convergence Labs provides shared, industrial-grade wet bench, fume hoods, tissue culture, and other basic life science tools. Simplified rental rates based off of bench access per month for as little as 1 month or as long as you need it.

This is a professional R&D and commercialization environment embedded within an active clinical innovation ecosystem. Co-located with companies like PolyAnalytik Inc., Indogulf BioAg Inc., London Pharmaceuticals & Research Corporation, LCS Laboratory Inc., and critical healthcare research infrastructure, it supports the rapid translation of research into real-world healthcare solutions.

GTA reframe

GTA lab space runs $60–$100+/sqft/year. Convergence Labs launches at $48/sqft — above break-even, below market, and inside a curated ecosystem with real clinical and industrial anchors. You're not trading down. You're trading a landlord for a commercialization partner.

The progression

Three stages. One park.

You don't change sites between stages. You expand within the park.

Stage
Space
Best for
01 · ACCESS
Bench + desk
Half or full bench at the park + hot desk (bundled)
Early-stage founders. Part-time research programs.
02 · INCUBATION
Lab pod suite
Dedicated lab pod with Convergence Lab access and cluster programming
Seed-stage companies with active research programs.
03 · SCALE-UP
Dedicated lab
Dedicated lab and anchor tenancy at the park
Series A and later. Full R&D operations.
Lab + Desk bundles

Pre-priced. One number. No paperwork chasing.

If you need both wet lab access and workspace, the bundled rates are simpler than building two contracts.

Why this works for life sciences

The ecosystem you actually need.

Real community, not signage.

Global research and commercial teams operate right inside the park. Collaborators, service providers, and peer organizations are people you bump into in the park every day.

A bench-to-bedside pipeline.

The Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry and London Health Sciences Centre are minutes away. Innovators can collaborate with real world clinicians without leaving the neighbourhood.

Talent without a budget.

Direct pipeline of graduate and postdoc from Western University and additional resources of talent are available through Fanshawe's co-op program.

For Western researchers

BioNext — a Western University program hosted at Western Research Parks — provides a parallel entry path for Western-affiliated researchers directly into the relevant Convergence Labs stage.

See the labs. Discover the park.

Walk the park. See the bench setup, the bundled spaces, and the ecosystem you'd be working beside.
