Silverstone Park

What Silverstone Park does

Silverstone Park is a 131-acre technology and advanced engineering business campus located adjacent to the Silverstone Circuit in Northamptonshire, UK, developed and operated by MEPC Limited with asset management by Federated Hermes. The campus spans approximately 940,000 sq ft of commercial space and hosts 90+ businesses employing over 2,700 people, spanning Formula 1 teams (Cadillac F1), premium automotive manufacturers (Ducati, Porsche), electric vehicle conversion (Lunaz), precision machining (Alitech Precision Parts), carbon fibre manufacturing (Silverstone Composites), e-commerce (Diva Group), and engineering consultancies.

The core offering comprises three product lines: serviced offices in the Innovation Centre (from 539 sq ft, monthly billing), bespoke industrial units including the Evolve East development (7,968-24,638 sq ft, annual leases), and three specialist centres of excellence (Electromagnetic Testing, Sports Engineering Testing, and Digitalised Additive Manufacturing). Supporting infrastructure includes the Silverstone Sports Engineering Hub (data-driven wind tunnel, pedalling-efficiency rig), a Hexagon metrology facility with sub-2 micron inspection capability, an on-site nursery, a commuter bus service (Zeelo), meeting facilities, and the Futures Schools Programme engaging 4,000+ local students.

Revenue is generated primarily through commercial leasing on recurring subscription terms — monthly for Innovation Centre offices, annual for industrial units — supplemented by specialist facility fees, property management services, and ancillary amenity income. The customer base is segmented vertically into Advanced Engineering, Motorsport & Racing, Technology & Clean Tech, and SMEs & Startups, with go-to-market executed via direct enterprise leasing supported by letting agents Benedicts and DTRE for larger units. Occupier success metrics include multiple in-place expansions (Diva Group, Silverstone Composites, Woodcote & Copse) and high-profile tenant additions such as Cadillac F1 in late 2025.
