Offices have been designed to encourage expansion among innovative occupiers in the science and technology sector.

At 27,000 sq ft, 143 Park Drive is already pre-let to Oxford Immunotec, a NASDAQ listed Oxford University spin-out which has expanded from an existing premises at the park, where it has been located for over 10 years.
