The Oxford Trust’s development of these class II laboratory facilities responds to the significant demand from science and tech start-ups and SMEs for lab space in Oxford’s world-leading life sciences cluster, centered in Headington.
Local Growth Fund-funding has ensured that the centre can offer Grade A office space and class II laboratory facilities, which have since become inhabited by a number of biotech start-ups focused on numerous specialisms and ground-breaking technologies.
Now with a total of 18,000 square feet of laboratory and allied spaces, the Wood Centre for Innovation offers its clients access to state-of-the-art shared facilities for common equipment, including: liquid nitrogen, refrigerated storage, autoclave, ultra-pure water, dark room and an on-site lab technician alongside high-efficiency offices, meeting rooms and co-working areas.
