October 1st 2025

We’re proud to celebrate the success of Oxford Sigma, a valued member of the Culham Campus community, who were Highly Commended in the ‘Growth Business of the Year’ category at the Enterprise Oxfordshire Marketplace and Celebration event on September 2025.

This recognition marks a major milestone in Oxford Sigma’s journey — reflecting their strategic growth, operational strength, and commitment to innovation since moving beyond the start-up phase. Their achievements are a testament to the kind of forward-thinking, resilient businesses that thrive within the Culham ecosystem.

Oxford Sigma’s growth has been driven by:

  • A strong leadership culture that fosters innovation and psychological safety
  • Scalable systems that support long-term resilience
  • Ambitious goals in market expansion and talent development

Their Operations Manager, Sarah Hubbard, shared her experience at the event:

“It was a real pleasure to attend and connect with so many inspiring local businesses. The energy and innovation across Oxfordshire’s SME community is incredible. I’m especially excited about the potential to collaborate with many of these organisations going forward, continuing our commitment to using local suppliers wherever we can and strengthening the regional economy together.”

At Culham Innovation Centre, we’re proud to support SMEs like Oxford Sigma with flexible workspace, tailored business support, and access to the wider Culham Campus network, including world-leading organisations in fusion energy and AI.

Congratulations to Oxford Sigma and all the finalists, your success reflects the strength of our regional innovation community and the power of collaboration.
