Set against the iconic backdrop of Tokyo Bay, BioLabs Tokyo at Shinkiba embodies Japan's enduring legacy of innovation - transforming a former industrial waterfront into a dynamic engine for life science discovery. Once known for its lumber yards, Shinkiba has been thoughtfully reimagined into a forward-looking district that blends cutting-edge R&D infrastructure with green open spaces, cultural and entertainment destinations, and seamless access to central Tokyo. With the launch of BioLabs, Shinkiba emerges as a new anchor for Tokyo’s life sciences startup ecosystem, purpose-built to support companies from early discovery through global scale.
