AstraZeneca, a British-Swedish multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology company, has revealed its plans to construct sustainable offices at Dubai Science Park, a member of TECOM Group.

Set to open in Q3 2023, the move is part of the company’s global green agenda and in line with “We the UAE 2031” vision and the Year of Sustainability.

The new office design, construction, and materials will meet platinum standards in Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) set out by the US Green Building Council (USGBC). The Green Building Classification System is one of the most widely used worldwide and a marker of healthy, efficient, and carbon-saving buildings.

SVP – Dubai Science Park “Health and sustainability go hand-in-hand. We cannot improve our collective well-being without putting the planet’s health first. Such foresight is what puts AstraZeneca among the world’s leading biopharmaceutical firms. They champion sustainability in healthcare, and their new offices in Dubai Science Park will add another benchmark for the industry. By joining our community of global and regional businesses across the health, energy and environment sectors, AstraZeneca can amplify their green efforts while promoting excellence in healthcare and research.”
