The universities in the Oxford - Cambridge Arc are making a step change in the region's contribution to the national economy. We underpin national competitiveness in many sectors, contributing £13 billion to the economy every year. By linking innovation districts and collaboration between public and private sector partners, the ARC will become a place in which world-leading research can flourish. We are working together with business and government to foster research, skills and innovation, to unleash potential for growth and prosperity. A living laboratory of latest technologies, sustainable development and modern ways of working, we are championing the ARC and the four pillars of its success.
