Oxford North has been recognised as the most impactful commercial development in the South-East for 2025 by CoStar.

The CoStar Impact Awards are given to celebrate significant contributions to the commercial property industry, and projects are assessed by a regional panel of judges across criteria such as economic catalysis, innovation, growth and diversification, and challenges overcome.

Oxford North is a £1.2 billion global innovation district, being delivered by Oxford North Ventures, a joint venture between Thomas White Oxford, Stanhope, and Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan.

The first phase of the development was opened in September 2025, with 158,500 sq ft of laboratory and workspace ready for use.

Simon Ruck, managing director of Oxford North, said: “We are truly honoured to receive this significant recognition from CoStar.

“The Impact Awards shine a spotlight on the projects making a genuine and lasting contribution to the commercial real estate market, and to be named the most impactful development in the South-East is a proud moment for everyone involved in Oxford North.

“We look forward to continuing to raise the bar as we progress the next phases and welcome more occupiers to what we believe will become one of the world’s most important innovation districts.”
