About Falko Busse

In September 2021, Falko Busse, President of the Bruker BioSpin Group, participated in the official hand-over ceremony for the new Bruker campus in Ettlingen, Germany. Busse described the campus as representing "a different way of working" with "short distances to have a lot of interaction areas." He expressed pride in the project and said he had "joyful anticipation" to see how the concept would work in practice. Busse noted that he felt "part of the Bruker family" during the construction process rather than an external consultant. Busse highlighted several features of the campus, including solar panels on the roofs and a design that allows the building to "heat itself" until the external temperature drops below four degrees Celsius. He remarked that the proximity of research and development to production and customers represents "a commitment to the location in Germany." Busse also stated that the open concept would encourage more interaction among employees.

A very warm welcome, ladies and gentlemen.

The campus is not just about buildings and workplaces. It's about a different way of working, short distances to have a lot of interaction areas. The anticipation is huge.

It was fun working with the entire team. We have been one team.

On the one hand, of course, proud because we have realized and implemented a huge project. On the other hand, also a lot of joyful anticipation because we have a certain concept, and it will be interesting to see how it turns out.

I am always enthusiastic. That's why I studied civil engineering, to create living spaces or working environments. I think we have quite well succeeded.

If you have been involved, it fills you with pride. I wish the best of luck to the builder.

I never had the feeling I came from the outside as an external consultant to advise Bruker on construction issues. I was part of the Bruker family, and that makes the project so special for me.

During the negotiations, you got a good feeling that there was a constructive mood with a common goal towards which we were moving. We came out with a good feeling as well.

The whole cooperation on the project was great.

They have filled the roofs accordingly with solar panels. What impressed me is, for example, that we don't have to start heating until the external temperature is below four degrees, because that's how long the building basically heats itself. That is already a great achievement.

We have nitrogen and helium here that are so familiar to us and not at all so present in the construction industry.

R&D is close to production; production is close to customers. It's definitely more than just concrete, a couple of windows that have been reinstalled, or areas that have been built. That is definitely a commitment to the location in Germany.

I think we will notice that we have much more, we all believe, because we will now simply also see each other with this open concept.
