Why Choose Dubai Science Park?
Dubai Science Park (DSP) is the region’s first free zone dedicated to the science, health, and pharmaceutical sectors. Formerly known as DuBiotech and rebranded in 2021 under TECOM Group, DSP serves the entire value chain from research and development to manufacturing, testing, and commercialisation of science-based products.
Key Benefits
DSP offers 100% foreign ownership, zero tax for qualifying entities, and access to purpose-built laboratories, clean rooms, and R&D facilities that would cost significantly more to build independently. The zone provides regulatory pathway support for health and pharma businesses navigating MOHAP and DHA approvals.
Packages & Pricing
Licence packages start from approximately AED 15,000, with total first-year costs typically 30–40% lower than premium zones like DMCC. Lab space can be rented by the hour (AED 200–800/hour), preserving capital for product development. Co-working spaces and flexible offices are also available.
Facilities & Infrastructure
DSP provides offices, laboratories built to global standards, multipurpose warehouses, and retail outlets within a community of over 3,600 science professionals. Its location in Al Barsha South offers proximity to Mall of the Emirates, Sheikh Zayed Road, and key healthcare facilities.
Who Is It Best For?
DSP is ideal for pharmaceutical companies, biotech startups, medical device manufacturers, health-tech firms, and R&D organisations. Its in5 Innovation Centre access provides additional incubation support for early-stage science ventures.
