Oxford Science Enterprises

Oxford Science Enterprises (OSE) exists to transform Oxford’s cutting-edge scientific research into companies to tackle the world’s greatest challenges. We strive for global impact and strong investor returns. We’re an independent investment company and venture builder, powered by a unique partnership with the University of Oxford. We have unrivalled access to world-leading science, and a 60+ strong team embedded in Oxford’s innovation ecosystem. Our proven venture-building engine systematically creates 8-10 new companies each year – and this is set to double by 2030. We find. We fund. We build. In our first decade, we’ve created 50+ core companies, partnered with 300+ co-investors, and together invested more than £3bn. And we’re only just getting started – with a new wave of Oxford spinouts emerging and later-stage companies scaling fast. Based in the heart of Oxford, our mission is clear: turning world-class science into transformational companies with global impact and billion-pound potential.
