One North Biopolis @ Singapore

One-north, stylised as one-north, is a 200 hectares (490 acres) business park in Singapore, developed by JTC Corporation to house R&D and high technology activities in the biomedical sciences, infocomm technology (ICT) and media industries. 

Launched officially in 2001 with the basis of creating a "global talent hub" and a knowledge-based economy.[2] one-north, which was master planned by Zaha Hadid Architects, is located at Buona Vista and near educational and research institutes like National University of Singapore (NUS), INSEAD and the Singapore Science Parks. In 2012, ESSEC Business School also set up its Asian campus in one-north, for a total investment of S$40 million.[3] 

The district has easy access to social and recreational facilities due to the close proximity to Holland Village. Besides being a “science hub” as Dr Tan described one-north at the launch, another aim is to create a community where expatriates and locals can gather to live, work and relax together in one-north.[4] As such, one-north will not be a government project only, but also one where private sectors contribute to provide the social and recreational amenities for the people working and living there.
