11. Debrecen Regional and Innovation
Industrial Park
Debrecen Regional and Innovation Industrial Park was established by the Municipality of
Debrecen in 1997.
Within the framework of the first phase of the development, a 40 ha area was equipped
with high capacity public utilities between 2000 and 2002.
The first tenanst of the industrial park, National Instruments Europe Ltd and Bumet Ltd
commenced their operation in 2000 and 2001, and by the end of 2007, as a result of
the successful co-operation of the municipality and XANGA Investment & Development
Group (as the company responsible for the infrastructure development and the daily
management of the park), the entire 40 ha area of the industrial park in Határ street
became full of enterprises, therefore there was a need for the extension of the park.
The extension of the park with an additional 20 ha was realised within the framework of
the sole investment and complete management of DIPA Debrecen Industrial Park
Academy Ltd, member of the XANGA Group, in 2008.
Since then, the area of the industrial park has
been further extended. Currently, the total area
of the park reaches 100 ha, of which ca. 40 ha
is still to be filled with industrial facilities.

utilities of a 20 ha area.
