Are you an influencer in Oxford?

You have the audience. The question is what it is actually worth, and whether it survives the platform changing its mind.

The Operator is a private, vetted membership for people building real things. Oxford is more research capital per head than anywhere in the country. University spinouts in biotech and deep tech, where the founder across the table is often an academic first and a commercial operator second, and the capital behind them is patient to a degree that would be unthinkable elsewhere.

Apply for membership

Applications are reviewed by hand. Not everyone is accepted.

What most influencers in Oxford are dealing with

  • Revenue that depends entirely on one algorithm you do not control
  • Brand deals priced by guesswork rather than by what the audience is worth
  • No business underneath the following, so the income stops when the posting stops

What membership gives you

  • Operators who have turned audiences into products and assets, not just fees
  • Pricing and packaging discussed with people who have negotiated the deals
  • Building something that keeps earning when you stop posting

Members meet online and, in Oxford, in person. Around Summertown, Jericho, the Oxford Science Park and the rooms you would expect: The Old Parsonage, Gee's, Quod.

Membership in Oxford is by application

Tell us what you are building and what you want from the room. The vetting is what keeps it worth being in.
