Local Growth Fund case study: Disruptive Innovation for Space Centre (DISC)

Local Growth Fund case study: Disruptive Innovation for Space Centre (DISC)

We once more reflect on some of the incredible impacts and legacy that investment secured in recent years by OxLEP has had on the Oxfordshire economy.

Launched in 2019, Satellite Applications Catapult's Disruptive Innovation Space Capability (DISC) can be found at the world-leading Harwell Campus site. DISC provides major space mission and engineering support capabilities including; modelling and design lab space and a low volume production facility. 

OxLEP secured £3 million-worth of investment for the project via the Government's Local Growth Fund, with a further £2.8 million leveraged.

Take a look at this short film to see the impact the project has already had:
