The Milan Innovation District (MIND) is a 100-hectare mixeduse regeneration aiming to become a world leading science, knowledge and technology district, a new city of 60.000 people, with an estimated development end value of 2.5bil€. MIND is a public private partnership (PPP) based on a 99 year concession agreement. Arexpo is the land owner while Lendlease will develop the private part of the development, i.e. approximately 480.000 sqm. The project aims to be a zero-carbon precinct that is committed to tackling climate change throughout all stages of the building lifecycle. The scope of works spans about half of the precinct’s area, including offices, laboratories, build to rent living, retail, feature amenities and services, as well as a creative hub. In February 2021, to cocreate discoveries in technology and life sciences, Lendlease has launched the Federated Innovation™ ecosystem, which acts as an innovation developer, accelerating ideas into new products, processes and services available to all partners. First part of the private development is West Gate.
