What it is

A one-day conference at Saïd Business School: keynote speakers, panel discussions, a pitching competition and an exhibitor hall. Prominent entrepreneurs, investors and business leaders in the room alongside students, researchers, staff and founders from across Oxford and beyond.

There is no application and no eligibility test — buy a ticket and turn up. You don't need a venture, a team or an idea to get something out of the day. Most people come to see what the ecosystem actually looks like before committing to anything in it.

Book early and you'll get updates in the run-up, so you can plan your day once the agenda is released.

The day also includes a pitching competition, featuring teams with early traction who are raising.

Full details are on the OSEF programme page.
