Plenary Group has announced that UNSW Sydney contracted the Plenary Group-led Plenary Health consortium to deliver the AUD600 million (US$390.71 million) Health Translation Hub in Sydney, Australia.

The project involves developing and operating the 35,600-sq.m. facility, supported by an initial 20-year commitment from UNSW to occupy 65% of the available space, the remaining space will be open to the industry and the 2,500 sq.m of open public space on the north side will help create an inviting and welcoming environment for staff, students, patients, industry partners and the public. The Health Translation Hub will support the rapid transformation of innovative research and education into better patient care and improved public health by bringing together educational and medical researchers, clinicians, educators, industry partners and public health officials.

The Hub is fully funded by the Plenary Group, ISPT, HESTA and UniSuper. Hansen Yuncken has been engaged as the design and construction partner and Architectus as lead architect.
