Growing the UK’s Innovation Economy

The UK’s economic map is being redrawn as knowledge-enterprise grows and new sectors of next-generation industry redefine the centres of gravity for research, human capital and commercial activity.

With over 25 years in the innovation-sector, CAM-SCI is the UK’s leading science park consultancy. We have delivered and operated more new science parks, commercial laboratories and innovation centres than any other organisation in the UK. We offer an unrivalled service to a wide range of clients including governments, councils, development corporations, universities and private investors and developers.

Commercial Best Practice

We compete in a global market and our approach is always focused upon sustainability and commercial best practice. Our advice is pragmatic and evidence-based using our own extensive experience together with on-going bench marking of national and international best practice and market trends.

How We Work

We are a small and flexible organisation that offers Director-level support at every stage of a project. We measure our projects against the international market and global innovation-economy development. Our approach is to work closely with clients to maximise opportunity whilst addressing key areas of risk in a fast-changing market.
