Techniquest
Techniquest is the UK’s longest established Science Centre. Founded in 1985, it grew from a shop front via a pre-fabricated industrial building to the UK’s first purpose-built Science Centre in 1995. Sited in a converted heavy engineering plant, this building was designed by Paul Koralek of ABK Architects, one of the UK’s leading firms.
Uniquely amongst UK Science Centres, Techniquest builds nearly all its own exhibits. This capability has led to us becoming one of the leading commercial exhibit builders in the UK, with over 200 contracts in more than 30 countries.
Techniquest was the first science centre in the UK to have Governing Member status in the Association of Science and Technology Centres (ASTC). In 1999 Techniquest’s exhibits were awarded “Millennium Product” status by the Design Council of the UK because of their excellence.
