Renting Retail Space in Sorrento Valley
Sorrento Valley is the "Biotech Engine" of San Diego. It is currently characterized by high density and high demand for specialized R&D facilities. While direct vacancy has inched up to 6.4%, leasing activity remains resilient, driven by small-to-mid-sized startups that prefer the "cluster effect" of being near established giants like Qualcomm (Source: NAI San Diego / Kidder Mathews). 2026 will be defined by "Sublease Digestion." Much of the current sublease inventory—concentrated in Sorrento Mesa—is expected to be absorbed by late 2026 as the funding environment for biotech firms stabilizes. Sorrento Valley remains a top choice for industrial and R&D investors due to its total lack of new developable land and its critical role in the regional tech supply chain (Source: Cushman & Wakefield Life Science Update).
