A small group of students rolled out a large banner from the top floor of the building, marking this exciting moment in the construction process. We were pleased to able to also welcome alderperson Susanne Schilderman, board members Anko van Hoepen (SPO Utrecht) and Murielle van der Voort (NUOVO) and director Fabian Bovenlander from construction company Van Wijnen to the stage to mark the occasion.


Applaus!

Together we gave the on site construction workers a big round of applaus for their dedication in building us a beautiful new campus!

Start of construction

Exactly one year ago, in March 2025, we celebrated the start of construction. Since then, the building has steadily taken shape. Seeing it reach this milestone today was a proud moment for our whole community.


Inspiring learning spaces


Moments like this also remind us who this building is really for. The students who will learn, grow and discover their passions here in the years to come. When the campus opens in 2027, it will offer inspiring learning spaces and new opportunities to connect with the innovative environment of Utrecht Science Park.

We look forward to sharing the next milestones with our community!
