Gold Coast Health & Knowledge Precinct

As Asia-Pacific’s emerging innovation hub, located in Australia’s fastest-growing economy and lifestyle city, we are not just evolving with the future; we are reimagining it. The Gold Coast Health and Knowledge Precinct (GCHKP) spans 200 hectares and brings together more than $5 billion in health, research and education infrastructure to drive world-class discovery and development.

With over 1,000 researchers, 16,000 workers and a thriving community of clinicians, entrepreneurs, students and global partners, our precinct is where research, industry and care come together to solve global challenges, improve lives and create the jobs of the future.

From world-first breakthroughs in spinal cord repair, artificial heart technology and stroke intervention to next-generation ventures in biotech, sportstech, clean energy and AI, we are building a connected community where you can collaborate, grow and lead real change.

Success Stories

Clare Minahan

Come and experience the ecosystem they’ve dropped themselves into, it’s incredibly powerful because of the people that are coming, the people you have access to, and the athletes you have access to. It’s not just an environment of opportunity, it’s incredibly positive. If you came and experienced that ecosystem, you’d find those two major pillars: access, and a really positive environment.

When I think about the number of elite athletes we have at Griffith University, right here on our doorstep, and the way we can connect sports tech companies directly to them, it’s incredible. Add to that the semi-professional athletes at the Southport Sharks and the fact that sport is in the Gold Coast’s DNA. We’re so lucky to have an innovation precinct purpose-built to support sports tech, it’s a game changer.

Mayor Tom Tate

The 2018 Commonwealth Games put us on the world stage for sport and innovation, and one thing about the Gold Coast is, once we’re on the world stage, we don’t get off it. That momentum sparked lasting legacies like the Health and Knowledge Precinct, along with other high-performance centres across the city. It all feeds off each other, and that’s how the best in sports tech find their way to the Gold Coast.

Coming back from the US, where we work very closely with the world-renowned Texas Heart Institute, to see the expansion of the Gold Coast Health and Knowledge Precinct made it really attractive for us to bring our technology back here to work with a world-leading laboratory at Griffith.
