Advanced Oxford is delighted to welcome Savills as a new member of the science and technology focused business leadership organisation.
Savills will be contributing to our work in supporting the development of Oxfordshire’s innovation ecosystem. Savills joins at a time when a number of Government policy changes are being brought forward, including a new National Planning Policy Framework which will be critical to the delivery of housing and infrastructure within the region, as well as the provision of places and spaces for science and technology companies to work and grow. The English Devolution bill and a new, modern industrial strategy will be brought forward, each influencing how the Oxfordshire region develops. Advanced Oxford’s role in connecting and convening the science and technology business community, including businesses like Savills that act as facilitators and support to the science and technology companies, is critical in ensuring that decision and policy makers at all levels have the insight and evidence they need.
‘Oxford remains an exciting place to work due to its ongoing growth trajectory in the science and tech arena. I am delighted that Savills has a place around the table with Advanced Oxford, allowing us to feed into the great work that it does to keep driving the city’s momentum and success as a global innovation hub.”- Emily Slupek, Head of Oxford Project Management, Savills
“At Savills we are heavily invested in the evolution of the science and technology sector so we are really pleased to align ourselves with Advanced Oxford and look forward to an active involvement going forward.”- Tom Mellows, Head of Savills Science
