Central to the site is TerraWATT, located in the southern Manchester building. It is a brand new business hub where pioneering companies will innovate and collaborate on sustainable digital and advanced manufacturing solutions at the forefront of Industry 4.0 & 5.0.

163 years of manufacturing history

From textile processing in the 1800s over electronics to the latest automation technologies, Vynckier has played a pivotal role in the history of manufacturing for over 160 years. Listed on the architectural heritage inventory, the site is being completely revitalised with a deep respect for history.

With respect to the past, we will breathe new life into this historic site and give it the place it deserves in Ghent’s business landscape. In short, renew it, not destroy it.

– Toon Kympers, CMO Revive

The site is uniquely located and strategically positioned at the Nieuwevaart 51 on the dynamic interface between the city centre and port area. Easily accessible and close to the northern R4 and the North Sea Port of Ghent with its many industrial production companies and international supply chains.

Building society

Revive creates living communities with shared goals. In all projects we integrate a mix of activities according to what the neighborhood needs. TerraWATT, like WATT The FirmsWATT Factory and soon WATT The Health, will be one of Ghent’s most innovative business spaces.
