For years, Oxford has been at the forefront of discovery. Today, it is home to an immense concentration of science parks, universities, global technology firms, national research institutions, and some of the world’s most exceptional talent. During Ox Tech Week, Oxford will become a place where world-class researchers meet investors, industry leaders and policymakers to build the partnerships needed to turn ideas into impactful outcomes.
Ox Tech Week’s ambition is to showcase the depth and breadth of Oxford’s ecosystem and to create meaningful connections that accelerate progress. Ox Tech Week is built on the belief that collaboration between entrepreneurship, academia and industry is essential to tackle the world’s most pressing challenges.
In collaboration with our partners, Ox Tech Week will host keynote events, curated panels, practical workshops, and roundtables. From artificial intelligence and quantum technologies to life sciences, climate and frontier innovation, the programme reflects the full strength and diversity of Oxford’s scientific and entrepreneurial community.
Ox Tech Week was created by Michael Collyer and Christiaan de Koning, co-founders of the Founders & Funders Foundation, with the goal of building a globally recognised, long-term platform for Oxford’s innovation economy. It grew from a shared belief: that Oxford’s exceptional researchers, startups, and investors deserve a dedicated stage, not only to connect locally, but to also engage with partners nationally and internationally.
Michael and Christiaan, co-founders of Ox Tech Week, said:
“Oxford has all the ingredients to be a global venture powerhouse. Ox Tech Week brings together researchers, founders, investors, industry, and policymakers to turn world-class science into scalable impact, and promote Oxford on the global innovation stage.”
