Schlieren is the epicenter for biotech. Today, the Bio-Technopark is home to 5000 employees. With the Healthtechpark, the city is once again setting an example in the catchment area of Zurich, offering startups from the healthtech sector a highly technical infrastructure of shared laboratories, coworks and offices.

In Schlieren, not only the hardware is right, but also the network. The Limmatspital and the University Hospital Zurich provide the practical framework. Schlieren has long been a hotspot for EHT spin-offs, because the geographic location is right and the relevant relationships are in the immediate vicinity. Schlieren is ranked 19th in the Bilanz location ranking.
