The Catalyst, an innovation hub on the University of Nebraska Medical Center’s EDGE District campus, is opening for business. Crews are putting the last, final touches on the 170,000 sq. ft. facility built inside a 119-year-old, former steel-casting factory.

UNeMed, Bio Nebraska, Invest Nebraska, RespirAI Medical, ViaRx, Forward Movement, LLC, Members.MD are among first tenants moving into The Catalyst. The building will also have a Big Grove Brewing taproom, which is opening this spring.

The 30-acre EDGE District is located west of Saddle Creek Road and south of Farnam Street. Other construction projects in the EDGE District include a 7-story parking garage and a 6-story office building and research building known as the C.O.R.E. Building.
