MEPC’s Milton Park, one of the UK’s largest science and business estates, is having a purple patch with a host of new companies and its new status as an enterprise zone. In a one month period in the summer the innovation centre on the estate attracted eight new companies while three organisations relocated within the centre and a further three graduated to other premises. James Dipple of MEPC said: “Start up businesses are given support to succeed and expand to other offices on the estate.” The estate has become part of the Science Vale Gateway Enterprise Zone which is now within the Oxfordshire Local Enterprise Zone. Ansys, an engineering software company, is one of the growing companies at Milton Park and it has now expanded its facility to 1,134 sq.m. (12,203 sq.ft.).

Science Oxford
The popularity of Oxford as a business location appears to be increasing, judging from recent deals. One of the largest is Goodman’s plan to build a 7,525 sq.metres (81,000 sq.ft.) headquarters for British Gas at its 86 acre Oxford Business Park. It will house 1,000 employees and construction starts in September. Science Oxford bought Macclesfield House in the centre of Oxford and pending the development of a science centre the building will be re-branded as Oxford Centre for Innovation and provide offices and business support for 30 small and growing companies.
The new centre will be managed by Oxford Innovation, which already manages 14 centres throughout the UK. The wider plan is for a £30 million science centre, designed by Foster & Partners, a cultural centre for science and enterprise that will attract over 100,000 visitors a year.
