Why Oxford is a great location for technologistsPosted over 5 years ago by Amy Taylor

Oxford is rapidly building its reputation as a leading tech hub within the UK. The presence of software and gaming development companies, such as Natural Motion and Brainomix, is ever growing and the City has a history of creating a wealth of technology start-ups including Biocarbon Engineering and OXBOTICA. One success story in particular which is evident of Oxford’s tech presence is Sophos, an anti-virus software house that achieved the largest IPO for a UK software house in 2015.
