Science park
A science park is an urban planning concept of a collection of research institutes , which also serves the economic development and the marketing of the location. There are often connections to universities and facilities for technology transfer , advanced training and start-up funding or also to technology museums. In contrast to the grown, often spatially extended science clusters, the science parks are compact and targeted start-ups in recent times.
Examples
Well-known German examples:
- Albert Einstein Science Park on the Telegrafenberg in Potsdam,

In other science parks, interactive popular science activities take center stage (e.g. in the Parque de las ciencias in Granada ).
