British Antarctic Survey Aurora Innovation Centre
The Aurora Innovation Centre, based at the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) in Cambridge, is a collaborative hub focused on tackling global environmental challenges.
The Centre brings together researchers, businesses, and partners to translate polar science into real‑world applications, supporting work on climate, sustainability, and adaptation to a changing world. By enabling interdisciplinary collaboration, it helps connect scientific research with practical solutions, contributing to a Net Zero future.
Aurora offers flexible collaboration space, including coworking desks, meeting rooms, and event facilities. Its membership‑based Collaboration Space provides access to workspace, networking opportunities, and a community of organisations with a shared interest in environmental impact. Members benefit from connections to BAS expertise, events, and wider UK Research and Innovation networks.
Alongside workspace, the Centre actively builds partnerships with organisations across academia, industry, and the public sector, supporting projects that apply environmental science to global challenges. Its position within a working scientific institute provides a distinctive environment where innovation can be tested and developed in close proximity to leading research.
