Home to more than 70 businesses, including start-ups, and now attracting about 1000 workers and 6500 students annually, the site is being developed as a collaborative working and living space for students, researchers and businesses. German optical and optoelectronics firm Zeiss will move from Lonsdale to Tonsley in April next year, taking up the largest spot — about 4000sq m — under what’s known as the Main Assembly Building. Siemens, Signostics, Micro-X, Flinders University, TAFE SA, Zen Energy Systems, Radical Torque Solutions and the State Drill Core Reference Library are on site. Retail food outlets and cafes are also on site — but there is more room to grow. The growth has followed a $253 million investment commitment by the State Government to redevelop the automotive manufacturing site formerly used by Chrysler and Mitsubishi.
