Harwell Launches Strategy for Improving UK Productivity
Mar 08 2018
A vision aimed at improving the productivity of the UK economy and the skills of its workforce has been announced by Harwell Campus. Setting out plans to stimulate high-tech business growth and support UK and international research and innovation, the strategy was unveiled at the European Space Agency’s UK Headquarters, which is located on campus.
Currently employing 6,000 people across 250 public, private and academic organisations and already contributes hugely to the government’s industrial strategy, Harwell received significant funding of £264 million by the government in 2017 alone; for a new Faraday Institution (£65 million), the Rosalind Franklin Institute (£100 million) and National Satellite Testing Facility (£99 Million)
Future plans include over four million square feet of additional office, laboratory and high-tech manufacturing space across the 710 acres Campus, to ensure growth continues to be supported
Harwell Campus is a joint venture between Oxford Developments Ltd, the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and the UK Atomic Energy Authority. More information about the new strategy can be found on the Harwell Campus Website
