BSG Ecology, Next Step Fusion, and Open Reality have all joined Milton Park to support their ongoing growth.

Ecological consultancy BSG Ecology, one of the UK’s leading ecological consultancies, has moved its 15-strong team from Cassington to a 1,112 sq ft office at 18D Croft Drive.

The company delivers ecological planning and environmental advice across a broad client base and said the move will reinforce its presence in Oxfordshire and beyond.

Judith Giles, associate director at BSG Ecology, said: “Milton Park provides a well-connected base for our team as we continue to grow our presence across Oxfordshire and the wider region.

“The Park’s established business community and excellent transport links make it an ideal location from which to support clients while working alongside organisations focused on innovation, sustainability and responsible development.”

Next Step Fusion, headquartered in Luxembourg, has established its UK presence at Milton Park as it advances the development of fusion energy technologies.

The company has taken 309 sq ft of space in the Milton Park Innovation Centre.

Dr Michele Romanelli, director at Next Step Fusion, said: “Establishing our UK base at Milton Park places us at the heart of one of the world’s leading environments for fusion and advanced energy research.

“The proximity to talent, expertise and a growing innovation community will support our continued development as we work towards delivering fusion as a commercially viable energy source.”

Open Reality, a UK value-added distributor focused on networking, wireless, cellular, unified communications and audio-visual solutions for the IT channel, has taken 1,000 sq ft at Bee House.

The company works with resellers, managed service providers and integrators to help them design, position and deliver high-performance technology solutions across enterprise, education, healthcare, hospitality, industrial and public sector environments.

Paul Forkgen, CEO of Open Reality, said: “Bee House provides an inspiring environment for innovative businesses, combining flexibility with a strong sense of community.

“Being based at Milton Park places us alongside a diverse range of pioneering organisations and gives us access to a thriving ecosystem of businesses, talent and ideas.”

Clare Fleet, asset manager of Milton Park at Federated Hermes Real Estate, said: “The arrival of these three companies reflects the breadth of organisations choosing Milton Park and demonstrates how we support innovative businesses at every stage of growth.

“From environmental consultancy and future energy solutions to immersive technologies, each has chosen Milton Park because we offer the space, flexibility, amenities and community needed to scale with confidence as part of Oxfordshire’s thriving innovation ecosystem.”
