The Harwell Science and Innovation Campus is a 280-hectare (700-acre) science and technology business park in Oxfordshire, England. Over 6,000 people work there in over 240 public and private sector organisations, working across sectors including aerospace, clean energy, life sciences, and quantum computing.
The site is 2 miles (3 km) outside Didcot, about 15 miles (24 km) south of Oxford and roughly 6 miles (10 km) east of Wantage. A large part of the site was formerly the main research establishment of the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA), and it has seen a transition to its new role as a science and business park as the nuclear facilities have been decommissioned.
