Sagentia Innovation fashioned from three companies in Science Group’s R&D consultancy
Three companies in the Science Group’s research and development consulting department have merged to form Sagentia Innovation.
The consulting skills of Oakland Innovation and OTM have been merged with the product development skills of Sagentia in Harston.

The new integrated R&D advisory business allows each project to be viewed through three “interconnected objectives” – end-user requirements, commercial opportunities, and technical feasibility.
Sagentia Innovation would like to contribute this know-how from the beginning in order to enable a faster and more agile way to market readiness and to develop more effective and economically more valuable products.
Paul Wilkins, Managing Director of Sagentia Innovation, said: “Over the past five years we have found increasing synergies between our consulting and product development work.

“For customers who want to understand how science and technology is affecting their business, or who can bring industry-leading digital and physical products to market quickly and accurately, a comprehensive end-to-end service makes perfect sense.
“We are confident that the mix of insight and invention that the combined business offers will add real value to our customers’ innovation strategies by solving their toughest technical challenges and delivering products and services that will delight their users.”
