Set to open in 2026, OMX will offer the much-needed lab space in Bristol that scaling Deep Tech companies often struggle to find — and it will do so within the supportive, well-connected ecosystem built by Science Creates.
Join our community of scientific entrepreneurs developing technologies that include groundbreaking cancer treatments, enhanced battery technologies and seaweed-based biomaterials.
Located in the heart of Bristol and connected to our Old Market incubator, OMX is designed with the specialised services and features that Deep Tech R&D demands, plus the flexibility that growing ventures need.
With 30,000 sq ft of lab, office and meeting space, OMX offers a range of options depending on the size of your company — from lab-only options to renting full suites including two labs and a private office.
Membership includes access to our platform of support, providing opportunities to attend workshops and events, connect with other founders, and find a mentor.
Discover the lab space that's available to rent in our newest Bristol incubator and discuss your scaling startup needs with our team today.

Folium Science is increasing agricultural productivity by enhancing animal welfare and feed efficiency in livestock farming while reducing environmental impact. Its unique CRISPR-Cas technology platform harnesses natural biological systems to safely modulate animal microbiomes by regulating metabolic functions and targeting unwanted bacteria with extreme precision. This approach helps reduce reliance on antibiotics and can be applied to both plants and soil to improve their bacterial biomes for optimal growing conditions.
Reach Industries is optimising lab and scientist efficiency with its Lumi™ visual intelligence platform. By automating data capture and analysis for experiments, observations and complex scientific workflows, the platform functions as a streamlined operating system that is accelerating R&D, improving compliance and increasing reproducibility.
Epinal is revolutionising the detection and prevention of narcotic-impaired behaviour for safer roads, flights and workplaces. Utilising AI and novel biotechnology that mimics natural sensory mechanisms, it’s developing a handheld breathalyser that generates rapid results with extreme sensitivity and selectivity.
Zentraxa is precision engineering biomaterials, pushing the boundaries of biopolymer synthesis to develop sustainable, performance-enhancing ingredients for everyday products. Its proprietary technological platform (Zentide) overcomes the biodesign limits of existing, conventional peptide synthesis by designing, producing and testing complex, novel peptides with one universal process. Zentraxa creates bespoke solutions for a range of industries by combining key features from different naturally-occurring proteins, such as stiffness, adhesion or thermal stability.
EnsiliTech is improving the shelf-life and global accessibility of vaccines and other biological therapeutics by combatting cold chain transport and storage issues. Its novel ensilication technology, designed for both existing and new biopharmaceutical formulations, encases thermally unstable biomolecules within silica nanoshells to prevent environmental degradation. This eliminates the need for cold chain requirements that are expensive, prone to failure and generate significant carbon dioxide emissions.
Invivo Healthcare is developing solutions to better understand and modulate human microbiomes, promoting long-term wellness and a sustainable future of healthcare. Its supplement therapeutics are plant, nutrient and microorganism-based, designed to lead the way in combating the rise of chronic diseases and a reductionist approach to medicine.
Uplift360 is developing chemical-based regeneration technologies to recover and reuse critical industrial materials such as carbon fibre and aramid. Its vision is to lead the way in circular economy innovation, creating a future where advanced materials are never wasted. Backed by the UK Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA), Luxembourg Government Directorate of Defence and Innovate UK, it enables circular and secure supply chains for high-performance sectors.
GenomeKey is transforming how healthcare clinicians diagnose and treat infections like sepsis to improve patient outcomes. Using cutting-edge machine learning and DNA sequencing, the company is developing a next-generation diagnostic device to identify bacterial genomes and determine their antimicrobial susceptibility directly from patient blood in just a few hours, rather than days. This enables clinicians to prescribe the right antibiotics for patients with much more efficiency and accuracy, reducing costs, minimising unnecessary antibiotic use and ultimately saving millions of lives from the world’s leading cause of death.
