Centre for
Innovation Oxford Centre for Innovation (OCFI) provides the ideal workspace for start-up and
early stage companies in the science and technology sectors. Serviced offices are
available to let on flexible terms, with as little as one month’s notice. The Centre
also provides a range of services for those not quite ready to commit to a private
office space. A stylish new co-working space called The POD has recently opened,
and there’s also provision to have a virtual office. The Centre differs from a standard
business Centre by offering support that proactively encourages the development of
start-ups, entrepreneurial and high-growth companies.
