New launches - Previous reports put asking rents at $60 per square foot (psf) per year, significantly higher than current rates at Biopolis, a life sciences cluster in one-north. A CBRE report issued in March said that at life science parks in Biopolis, rents ranged from $43 to $45 per square meter in the third quarter of 2022.

Brenda Ong, executive director of logistics and industrials at Cushman and Wakefield, expects rents at Geneo to be among the highest in the Biopolis market due to the amount of wet lab-ready space in and near one side limited north.
