Beagle Marconi will be located in the Merwe-Vierhaven (M4H) area, an old port site in Rotterdam undergoing transformation into a new living and working district. M4H, historically a major fruit port, is now becoming a hub for innovation and manufacturing, particularly for young companies.

This area, known as the Makers District, aims to foster the growth of innovative industries, introduce young people to technology, and promote the circular economy. It serves as both a breeding ground and showcase for future economic developments in the region, emphasizing collaboration and sharing of knowledge, space, and resources.
