Place Signal
is your early warning system for tenant demand. It watches the life sciences and biotech market, surfaces companies that have just raised capital to move, and puts tenants in front of your buildings before they've issued a brief, toured a competitor, or called a broker.
By the time a tenant issues an RFP, they've already toured three buildings, heard two pitches, and mentally committed to a shortlist. You weren't on it. Place Signal puts you in the conversation at the moment of intent — when a company closes a funding round, announces a hire, or signals growth — not six months later when it's a competitive brief.
We track every funding round, strategic hire, and expansion announcement across the UK life sciences and biotech market. Automatically. Daily.
Each signal is scored against your buildings — sector fit, location, size, timing. You see ranked matches, not noise.
A draft intro email lands in your queue, ready to review. You edit, approve, and send from your own inbox. One click.
Place Signal surfaces demand 60–90 days earlier — at the moment of intent, not the moment of brief. By the time a tenant issues an RFP, the shortlist is already set.
Emails come from the agent's own address with one-click approval. No bulk-send platform, no template blasts. Replies go straight back to your inbox.
The pipeline runs every day, across the entire UK life sciences and biotech market. No junior researcher, no list-building, no dependency on who's in the office.
Finding, enriching, and emailing one prospect takes 45–90 minutes manually. Place Signal runs the full cycle — signal to personalised draft — automatically, overnight.
Every new signal is automatically scored against your whole portfolio — sector, size, location, timing. No manual triage, no gaps when someone's on holiday.
Every signal, match, and contact is logged. You can see exactly why a lead was flagged and what was sent — useful for asset management and board reporting.
These are the companies that will need space in the next 90 days. The ones you reach first win.

Place Signal is for landlords, building owners, and developers with life sciences, biotech, and deep tech buildings who want to know — before anyone else — which company just raised the capital to move.
If you wait for an RFP, you're already late.
Place Signal works with a select number of building owners and agents in the UK. We're not a marketplace. We don't sell data. We work with you directly to match your buildings to the companies that should be in them.
We're currently onboarding a small number of building owners and agents. Apply below and we'll be in touch within 48 hours.
