Home » About Us » Our Vision

Science City Bristol will support and develop the area’s science and innovation assets to deliver sustainable economic and social benefit by:

- Bringing business, academia and government together
- Creating a more connected scientific community
- Promoting the area’s scientific achievements to help us attract even more world-leading scientific enterprise and research
- Creating a culture for all which understands and celebrates science and technology

Our definition of science is a broad one which includes technology, social sciences, engineering and creative technologies, as well as the more traditional physical, chemical and biological sciences. Science City Bristol is also a strong believer in the links between science, art and culture – indeed, Bristol’s heritage, built on the work of Brunel and others, helps define our culture. Take a look at our case studies section to get more information on some of the many interesting things happening around the city region.
