ABOUT OUD AND BEGBROKE INNOVATION DISTRICT

www.oud.co.uk

Oxford University Development (OUD) is a joint venture partnership bringing together the land and opportunities of Oxford University with the investment and development management skills of Legal & General Capital. A key project is the development of Begbroke Innovation District, allocated in Cherwell District Council’s Local Plan, which builds on the achievements of Begbroke Science Park, where world-class university scientists work with industry decision-makers and entrepreneurs to turn cutting-edge research into commercial opportunities. OUD plans to deliver a world class, mixed-use neighbourhood around Begbroke Science Park. In addition to the planning-related engagement being undertaken by Kevin Murray Associates on behalf of OUD, we are developing a science engagement programme.
