Bristol & Bath Science Park
A striking online
A striking online
presence for Bristol’s
innovation hub
A world-class innovation facility demands a website akin to its status. And as long-standing BBSP tenants, we were delighted to be awarded the website contract, fending off stiff competition from other providers.
Our responsive website solution provides a platform for increased exposure and better social communication.
Our knowledge of the park enabled us to portray an image which we and the BBSP management team thought would take the park into its second phase. Enabling the park as a whole to fill plots and increase occupancy of the innovation centre.
Whilst a fresh new image and design architecture was essential, the park also wanted to generate more news and social media awareness, so we created a Parklife wall, which pulls in the best of Twitter, Instagram and YouTube, along with news and events to create a stunning visual overview of life at the park.
Using Google’s street view API, we introduced a virtual tour guide feature enabling visitors and prospective tenants an opportunity to see inside out outside of the Science Park.
With routes that let users find their way to all of the key facilities, meeting areas and office spaces users are able to see things for themselves before visiting.
Whilst the new site has been designed to get more people in for meetings, more small businesses using office spaces and more larger organisations using the grow-on centre, a big part of the site was to highlight and help grow the people who have made the park what it is already - the existing tenants.
We introduced a brand new tenant directory and job board with a smart filter that enables users to search for companies and jobs they are interested in by filtering on certain criteria.
We really love the overall look of this
It's a very clean simple interface which still clearly conveys a lot of really important information, so thank you!
The project is well thought through, smartly taking into account every little request we had. Which is amazing, I love that!
I've been using the prototype to pitch the idea with potential clients and the feedback has been really good so far.
We're miles ahead of where I expected us to be at this stage, and we've all really appreciated the effort you've put in.
Everyone is really, really happy and pleased with what you've put together, blown away! We love the simplicity of the prototype.
You've done an amazing job of taking our concept and actualising it into something much more real!
This process has cemented our concepts into requirements, plans and something much easier to step forward with, both internally and as something we can tell the story to others. We've been particularly impressed with how you've taken a fairly niche topic and run with detailed concepts and clearly understood what we are aiming for!
I’m very impressed with how you’ve interpreted the brief and interviews!
You have captured the use case and functionality really well.
You’ve understood the project quicker and got further with the design in 3 weeks than our previous company did in a year.

Newicon understood our needs, ensuring solutions were current and future-proofed
Ethicall have worked with Newicon for approximately 10 years. During this time Newicon have worked with us on various projects, but predominantly they have helped us design and build a bespoke telephone fundraising software system which encompasses all the nuanced and niche elements of our business. They really took the time to understand what we needed as a fundraising call centre and then constantly revisited this with us to ensure it was still fit for purpose and future proof. The engineers working on the project have always been mindful of building in stages with regular testing and approval from users – they are also able to communicate in non-technical speak – which is always useful for those of us not from a technical background. Newicon’s recent introduction of project managers has enhanced their services further.
