Fareham Innovation Centre at Daedalus – 10 years on
Fareham Borough Council has created a video to showcase some significant developments at Daedalus and to celebrate over 10 years of investment and innovation on the site.
Most recently, intelligent power management company and global leader in aircraft component manufacturing, Eaton, has relocated its headquarters to Faraday Business Park on the Daedalus site. Its custom built, 176,000 square foot facility, represents one of the largest investments in the fuel services business.
Faraday Business Park was able to offer Eaton a premier location in one of the UK’s largest dedicated innovation and advanced manufacturing zones. Its outstanding design standards and infrastructure provides Eaton everything it needs to facilitate its current business requirements and support its long-term growth.
Proximity to CEMAST and Fareham Innovation Centre, both located on-site at Daedalus, provide a strong pipeline of next-generation aerospace talent.
Oxford Innovation Space, the organisation that has successfully managed the Innovation Centre since it first opened ten years ago, has also been awarded a new contract with the Council. Under its guidance, the Innovation Centre has supported 188 businesses and contributed to the creation of 1,065 jobs since opening. This new contract enables the continuation of centre’s success and maintains its reputation as a hub of enterprise, supporting the growth of local businesses and strengthening the wider Daedalus economic area.

Other developments at Faraday Business Park include a world class, dedicated Seach and Rescue (SAR) training facility for Bristow Helicopters which is nearing completion. This new facility will enable the organisation to deliver consistency and excellence in training for SAR crews from both overseas and here in the UK and more details will follow soon.
