In addition to the many benefits the project offers the people of Queensland, including helping to ensure Queenslanders will have a secure supply of blood plasma medicines, local job creation, and making annual savings to the state’s health care budget, the project also ensures the culmination of the Springfield City Group’s vision to create BioPark Australia.

With Aegros taking up land within the Springfield precent, the signal has been sent that businesses and industries can confidently form a hub of medical, pharmaceutical, academic, and bio-processing service providers that will be able to collaborate for success.

Already Aegros is speaking to university centres of learning and leading and emerging players in the pharmaceutical and medical technology sectors who are keen to explore the synergies that BioPark Australia offers.

Aegros looks forward to building and developing its new one million litre HaemaFrac® facility and becoming the anchor tenant for BioPark Australia.

Aegros also looks forward to future collaborations with the Springfield City Group and to becoming a part of the Springfield and Ipswich communities.
