Research and Development Facility
We are investing in a new interdisciplinary research and development campus that bridges The Oxford Science Park and Littlemore.
Set for completion in 2027, the world class facility will have 30,000m² of research laboratories, an oncology and preventative care clinic, plus educational and meeting spaces. Together, they create the perfect environment for EIT’s experts to take ground-breaking ideas from research to broad implementation. The new facility will support EIT’s partnership with the University of Oxford and become the new home for Ellison Scholars.
Never before has such a breadth and scale of activities been co-located within the bounds of a single Institute, providing real opportunities to drive interdisciplinary problem solving. We believe that each humane endeavour and each program will benefit from activities across EIT. Removing silos and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration between all groups in the EIT ecosystem –including scientists, engineers, clinicians, scholars, technologists, policymakers, operations, and others – will advance innovation.
Collaboration Spaces
EIT will bring together innovative thinkers from around the world to support EIT’s mission. Designed by renowned architect Lord Norman Foster, specifically to include collaborative spaces and to promote this interdisciplinary work.

EIT Clinic
The EIT Clinic will serve as a cutting-edge hub for cancer treatment, disease prevention, and wellness. Spanning over 2,000m², the clinic will feature on-site clinical imaging and lead the way in integrating clinical care with research. It will focus on evaluating and advancing new medical technologies through partnerships with academia, industry, and healthcare organisations, positioning itself at the forefront of innovation and healthcare excellence.
