San Carlos Research Center

San Carlos Research Center has a deep history as a biotech research and production facility in San Carlos, playing a key role in the growth of companies such as Inhale Therapeutics, Nektar Therapeutics, Novartis and Mylan. The property is a unique blend of lab and office spaces in front coupled with a state-of-the-art cGMP plant which occupies the back of the property. Gray Matter and BGO's recent renovations delivered new lab spaces, preserved the existing cGMP infrastructure, and added amenities to support the needs of today's tenants.
