"Placing roots at our discover@UTC campus puts us at the center of our core San Diego market and adjacent to the regions leading life science and technology companies and research institutions," said President and CEO Tim Schoen. "This move demonstrates our commitment to continuing to invest in and serve the thriving San Diego life science community through all economic conditions, as the biotech industry and our innovative tenants advance the next generation of medicines and therapies."

Located at the intersection of Towne Centre Drive and Executive Drive, discover@UTC is a premier life science campus comprised of four buildings with 288,000 square feet.

Other tenants that also moved their corporate headquarters to discover@UTC include Poseida Therapeutics, Samumed, and Human Longevity.

BioMed Realty acquired the campus in phases in 2010 and 2016, and successfully remodeled and repositioned the entire campus in 2017 under Blackstones ownership. In 2020, BioMed Realty completed significant improvements, including converting the properties to state-of-the-art lab/office buildings, enhancing the exterior faade, and adding new interior and exterior amenities.

To support the community of life science companies occupying discover@UTC, the property provides a host of amenities designed to enhance collaboration, support wellness, and provide convenience for tenants, including an on-site fitness center and caf, subterranean and surface level parking, and on-site security. In addition to this, the property contains a newly designed, eco-friendly parklike setting with tranquil water features, outdoor meeting spaces and a recreation/athletic field. The campus provides ideal ingress and egress access points to both the I-5 and I-805 freeways, and is centrally located within walking distance of the newly renovated Westfield Mall and a number of nearby retail stores, high end restaurants, fitness centers and hotels.
