The Oxford Saïd Entrepreneurship Forum

The Oxford Saïd Entrepreneurship Forum (OSEF) is a one-day conference, held annually by the Business School to promote entrepreneurship and innovation. The format includes: keynote sessions, panel discussions, pitching competition, and exhibition space. Entrepreneurship is a catalyst for growth and innovation and this forum has as main objectives: to engage, inform and inspire the vibrant Oxford entrepreneurial community. It brings together 500 students, entrepreneurs, investors and business leaders from around the world, and paves the way for idea generation, globally connected communities, and venture growth. The theme of OSEF 2020 was 'Space and beyond.' It featured provocative thinkers and challenger entrepreneurs on a fascinating journey to change the world as we know it; either driven by their ambition to explore the cosmos or by pushing the boundaries of our scientific and technical limits in matters critical to life on Earth. The forum provided a platform for impactful networking to build relationships with budding entrepreneurs and investors.
