Technopolis Moscow SEZ Unveils Pechatniki Site Development Plans for Investors
On June 4, Technopolis Moscow Special Economic Zone (SEZ) presented investment opportunities at its Pechatniki site, showcasing three land plots for the construction of business and research complexes. The new developments are part of Moscow’s larger “Southern Port” urban project, initiated by the city government, and are designed to integrate seamlessly into the surrounding infrastructure, including social, residential, and industrial areas, as well as public amenities, explained Gennady Dyogtev, CEO of Technopolis Moscow SEZ.
The Southern Port cluster, located on a former industrial zone of around 640 hectares in the Pechatniki district, is set to become one of Moscow’s key future business hubs. By the end of 2027, five new business complexes with a total area exceeding 330,000 sq. meters will be built, featuring landscaped public spaces.
During the roadshow, investors were invited to participate in the design and construction of three of these complexes, including one with facilities for hotel services. Each building will range from 65,000 to 85,000 sq. meters and include underground parking. Construction is expected to begin within 12 months of signing the sale agreement.
Investors may also benefit from incentives such as support in filling commercial space, subsidies under the Moscow Program for Job Creation, and preferential loans through the Moscow Fund for Industrial Development and Entrepreneurship.
The Pechatniki site’s high transport accessibility adds to its appeal: it is just 15 minutes from central Moscow and well-connected via Volgogradsky Avenue, the Third Transport Ring, the Moscow High-Speed Diameter, metro and MCD stations, and surface transport routes. With ongoing city support and investor involvement, the site continues to modernize, laying the groundwork for the growth of Moscow’s scientific and industrial potential.
The Southern Port project also plans extensive cultural and recreational infrastructure along Moscow’s longest riverfront, including a yacht club, floating stage, saunas, pontoon pools, a cultural center, and restaurants. The development will complement the “Dream Island” entertainment complex on the opposite bank of the Moskva River and is expected to generate strong demand for short-term rental from tourists and business visitors, making hotel-integrated business complexes particularly attractive to investors, noted Ksenia Alexandridi, Head of Strategic Consulting at IBC Real Estate.
The project will create a concentrated demand from highly skilled professionals, including staff employed on the Pechatniki site. One of the towers is planned to host a workforce training center.
Currently, Pechatniki hosts around 500,000 sq. meters of production and business space, home to over 130 companies producing next-generation pharmaceuticals, microelectronics, advanced materials, electric vehicles, and components for green transport. According to Dyogtev, the site’s growth potential opens significant opportunities for investors.
Maria Zimina, Director of Office Real Estate at NF GROUP, noted that the emergence of a new business district in southeast Moscow is expected to raise property values in surrounding areas, similar to the effect of Moscow-City. In total, 7.5 million sq. meters of new real estate are planned in the Southern Port area, with total investments estimated at around 380 billion rubles. In the near future, property prices in these districts could increase by 10–15% relative to comparable peripheral areas of the city, while growth in overheated central districts may slow, creating a self-sufficient and high-value urban location in southeast Moscow.
