About the event
Mace has been commissioned by NHM to act as principal contractor during the construction phase of the development of a new collections, science and digitalisation centre.
The new centre will house 28 million specimens ranging from microscopic fossils to whale skeletons. Alongside the specimens will be a suite of innovative digital, analytical and genomic technologies and facilities.
The centre will enable researchers from around the world to tackle urgent environmental issues and find solutions to global challenges, from tracking genetic responses to climate change to the emergence and spread of infectious diseases.
The centre will be based at Thames Valley Science Park in Shinfield. The Science Park is owned and run by the University of Reading. As a world-leading science research centre, we are delighted to be entering into a partnership with another organisation that has environmental research and education at the core of its mission.
