Milton Park has appointed Benedicts to join CBRE as joint leasing agents for the park.
Last year more than 40 new occupiers were attracted to the 2.8 million sq ft park which is now home to more than 280 companies.
Among the 2025 intake of innovators was quantum computing business TreQ, photonic-switch pioneers Salience Labs and British retail brand Oka.
In addition, Inify, a Swedish AI-powered cancer diagnostics provider, took space at the new Nebula building.
Both CBRE and Benedicts expect increased demand for commercial property market from similar firms in 2026.
Space is also being rapidly acquired at Milton Park’s new amenity space, Signal Yard, due to open in Spring. Just four of its 17 units remain.
Tom Vecchione, director for Benedicts, said: “With stronger inward investment and an increasing spotlight on Oxfordshire’s innovation strengths, the outlook this year is looking bright.
“As an Oxfordshire-based agency, we’re proud to support Milton Park in providing adaptable space which is suitable for a range of sectors and emerging tech. Our recent leasing work at Signal Yard has shown the strength of the park’s offer and we look forward to helping shape its future.”
Tom Barton, senior director for CBRE, said: “Milton Park offers companies a unique opportunity to be at the centre of a world-class destination, all in single ownership. Its talent pool, ten-day simplified planning, space to grow, transport connections to Oxford and beyond, world-class amenities and exceptional power capacity set it apart.
“As well as being a leading hub for life sciences, we’re also seeing exciting activity from quantum, AI, deep and green tech sectors across the park. Our market insight and data gives a clear perspective on emerging demand signals and we expect to see an uplift in leasing in these areas as the year progresses.”
