Clusters

In fast-paced, future-focused industries, operating as a lone voice with limited resources can hinder innovation and growth. At Surrey Research Park, we can help you overcome this isolation by connecting you to industry-specific clusters.

Through initiatives like Space South Central, the Games and Innovation Nexus (GAIN), and vHive, you’ll collaborate with experts, partners, and peers—both on the Park and across the wider Surrey Innovation District ecosystem—enabling you to scale faster, stay competitive, and achieve greater impact
