Kadans is bringing forward new laboratory and office accommodation on the park to support the needs of growing businesses in Oxfordshire.

“Oxford is the UK’s leading hub for innovation, and its life sciences market continues at a pace with increasing demand from investors. We are extremely pleased to have harnessed this demand, working with our clients to secure the sale of these assets – both of which were off-market transactions. The Kadans team has an opportunity to unlock the additional potential in these buildings and drive forward Oxfordshire’s ambition to support and advance further meaningful connections with real estate and the wider life sciences industry.”
