The Oxford Advantage

These vital industry sectors each stand on their own strengths and are in many ways world leaders. Yet when working together, supported by a strong advisory community and the infrastructure they need for success, they truly become a science and technology superpower.

Throughout 2024, Mills & Reeve and Bidwells will hold three roundtable discussions where we will explore these themes further. We will celebrate the very best that business and academia deliver when working together. We will explore the legislative and funding challenges faced alongside the infrastructure investment needed to ensure continued leadership on the world’s stage.

Roundtable events will be held in Oxford where we will explore the ambitions of science and technology businesses, Cambridge where we will bring life sciences businesses together, and London where we will discuss real estate and the investment needed to ensure continued success. We will explore each location’s offer, nuances and challenges, as well as the wider picture.

The first of these events took place in Oxford. The focus of the discussion was on how Oxfordshire is well-placed to support the Government’s ambitions to be a science and tech superpower and the changing face of science and technology.

In this white paper we share with you the highlights of that discussion.
