Campus Management
About Us
Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH is developing the international campus together with the research institutions as an innovative and sustainable science and technology location. With its reputation, the campus is the heart of Berlin-Buch, a location of future innovation.
Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH is committed to being a sustainable innovation hub, operating in a climate-conscious manner through the use of 100% renewable electricity, intelligent building technologies, and measures to protect biodiversity. Guided by the sustainability standards of Berlin’s state-owned enterprises, the campus integrates environmental, social, and economic responsibility, supported by a certified energy management system and sustainable mobility initiatives such as CAMPUSbike.
Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH has developed a sustainability strategy focused on three key areas: corporate responsibility, environmental protection and resource conservation, and corporate culture. For further information, please refer to the Sustainability Report.
The BiotechPark Berlin-Buch with the new Incubator for young biotech and medtech: BerlinBioCube is most important pillar of the company. Founded in 1995, it is an integral part of the campus. Assisting and supporting the settlement of biotech companies - from start-ups to mature enterprises – comprise the key tasks of Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH.
On behalf of the campus community, Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH operates a state-of-the-art, secure and efficient communication and information system with services and support, ensures comprehensive facility management, and organizes and coordinates the technical operation of the campus infrastructure and maintenance of the green areas. The highly popular Life Science Learning Lab, which is well-known throughout Germany as a life science education institution, promotes young talent, offers professional qualification courses as well as courses and activities for the general public. Since 2011, Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH has also been coordinating activities that affect the development of the entire Buch location.
As an economically independent, non-profit company with a public mandate, Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH is a neutral and intermediary partner. It serves as the interface to basic research, clinical research, companies, administration, policymakers in government and the general public and is engaged in competence networks as well as support and service networks on a regional and international level.
The shareholders of Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH are the State of Berlin (50.1 %), the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in the Helmholtz Association (Max Delbrück Center) (29.9 %), and the Berlin Research Network for the Leibniz-Forschungsinstitut für Molekulare Pharmakologie (FMP) (20 %).
National Climate Initiative
Since 2008, the German Federal Government has been initiating and funding numerous projects through the National Climate Initiative (Nationale Klimaschutzinitiative) that contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Its programmes and projects cover a broad range of climate protection activities, from developing long-term strategies to providing practical support and investment funding. This diversity provides a foundation for innovative ideas. The National Climate Initiative helps embed climate protection at the local level, benefiting consumers, businesses, municipalities and educational institutions alike.
KSI: Appointment of a Climate Protection Manager and Development of a Climate Protection Concept for the Berlin-Buch Campus
Project duration: 15 September 2026 – 1 September 2028
Partners: Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH, Max Delbrück Center, Leibniz Research Institute for Molecular Pharmacology (FMP)
Funding reference number: 67K33690
Funding body: Federal Ministry for the Environment, Climate Action, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety, under the National Climate Initiative. Funding is provided on the basis of a resolution adopted by the German Bundestag.
The objective of the climate protection management initiative is to further develop the climate protection concept for the Berlin-Buch biotechnology and science campus. This will be carried out by Campus Berlin-Buch GmbH in collaboration with the campus's key stakeholders: the Max Delbrück Center, the Leibniz Research Institute for Molecular Pharmacology and Eckert & Ziegler SE. In particular, the project aims to harness waste heat from IT infrastructure and optimise ventilation systems, heat flows and traffic flows across the campus. It will also assess the potential for improvements in energy supply and energy procurement.
The climate protection concept will identify all climate-relevant emissions and assess opportunities for reducing them. Green spaces and measures to adapt them to the impacts of climate change will also be taken into account.
