We Celebrate the Grand Opening of Spartners by Servier & BioLabs at Paris-Saclay : A Premier Global Innovation Hub for Life Sciences

On Wednesday, June 11th, we were proud to officially celebrate the Grand Opening of Spartners, the incubator of BioLabs in Paris-Saclay, co-founded with Servier, after two years of activity supporting health innovation.

More than 200 guests gathered to mark this symbolic milestone, including representatives from our ecosystem, partners, and sponsors. Together with Johannes Fruehauf, Founder & Chairman at LabCentral; CEO at BioLabs and Founding Partner at Mission BioCapital, the event opened with warm and inspiring speeches from Olivier Laureau, President of Servier, and Alexandra Dublanche, Vice President of the Île-de-France Region, who all reaffirmed their shared commitment to accelerating innovation in life sciences.

After the speeches, the celebration began with a brunch in the sun, followed by guided tours of the labs. We also had a “Residents area” where our 10 amazing resident startups showcased their work and cutting-edge projects with their scientific posters. We were also deeply grateful for the presence and support of our sponsors, highlighted during a dedicated “Sponsor fair” during the event.

The feedback we received was overwhelmingly positive — highlighting both the quality of the space and the strength of the community we’ve built over the past two years.

A particularly special (and fun!) moment was when guests were invited to sign and dedicate a giant version of the Spartners logo, the iconic infinity symbol. Created for the occasion, it now remains on display in the incubator as a lasting tribute to collaboration and innovation.
