Sciopolis turns underperforming buildings into innovation hubs, fast. We are entrepreneurs, not property developers, and we partner with universities, developers and local authorities to give empty space a new purpose as labs, offices and communities. Base One, at 1 Portal Way in North Acton, transformed the former Dixons Carphone headquarters into 24 labs and 29 offices with Imperial College London. Our approach is Sensibly Sustainable: reuse what exists, rehome what we can't use, and save what's worth saving.
