Today, September 18, HIPRA has officially inaugurated its new HIPRA Campus in Aiguaviva (Girona), envisioned as one of Europe’s main biotechnology hubs. The event was presided over by Salvador Illa, President of the Generalitat of Catalonia, and attended by Jordi Hereu, Minister of Industry and Tourism of the Government of Spain, along with other distinguished authorities. 

The Campus is the strategic cornerstone on which HIPRA’s growth and expansion will rest in the coming years. It has been conceived to be much more than an infrastructure: through this Campus, HIPRA aims to consolidate its position as a benchmark in the biotechnology sector, ranking among the leading companies in Europe and projecting its influence globally. This space symbolizes HIPRA’s vision for the future and reinforces its commitment to developing innovative solutions that address major global health challenges.

The Campus extends HIPRA’s headquarters in Amer (Girona) and strengthens its productive, scientific, and technological capacity, aligned with a sustainable and international growth strategy. With an estimated capital investment of over 500 million euros and a surface of 114,000 m² of new industrial land (doubling the area of its headquarters), the HIPRA Campus seeks to establish itself as an international centre of excellence in the research and development of high-impact biotechnological solutions for global health. Phase 1 of the project, already completed, comprises 28,000 m² of built space, distributed among production, corporate, and R&D buildings. Of this, 7,500 m² are specifically dedicated to R&D in animal and human health, tripling the company’s current capacity in this field.

The HIPRA Campus, which already employs more than 400 professionals, will reach 1,000 direct jobs and more than 2,000 indirect jobs once completed. These professionals will add to a workforce of over 2,700 employees currently based in the province of Girona and in its 40 subsidiaries worldwide. Designed as a collaborative and sustainable working environment, the Campus includes laboratories and production plants equipped with the latest technologies, green spaces, and employee services.
