The Rad clif fe 1 0 0 is an invitation - on ly circle of 1 0 0 organisations bro u ght together th ro u gh a sh are d com mitment to edu cation, le ad ership an d the future of Ox ford. It is designed for organisations that value a meaningful association with one of the world’s leading universities, an internationally connected graduate college, and one of Oxford’s most remarkable historic landmarks. At the heart of the Radcliffe 100 is Green Templeton College, a graduate college whose community

spans business, health, policy, social science, entrepreneurship and global leadership. Through participation in the Radcliffe 100, organisations become associated with a college recognised for its interdisciplinary thinking, international outlook and commitment to addressing some of society’s most pressing challenges.

RECOGNITION AND ENGAGEMENT The Radcliffe 100 is intentionally limited to just 100 organisations.

Participation provides a distinctive association with Green Templeton College and supports the future of the Radcliffe Observatory, while creating opportunities to engage with the life of the college through a carefully curated annual programme.

The lecture is followed by an exclusive black-tie dinner with the Principal, providing an opportunity for participating organisations to meet fellow members of the Radcliffe 100 and senior figures from across the college community.

At the centre of the programme is the Radcliffe 100 Lecture, bringing together leading voices from business, research, public policy and innovation to explore the ideas shaping our future.

During the summer, organisations are also invited to a champagne reception at Green Templeton College, celebrating the continued growth of the Radcliffe 100 and the impact of the Observatory project.

We are proud that Oxford PharmaGenesis is the first member of the Radcliffe 100. For us, its strength lies in bringing together a remarkable group of organisations with a shared connection to Oxford – creating opportunities to meet, exchange ideas and build relationships with one another and with the Green Templeton community. At the same time, we are helping to secure the future of the Radcliffe Observatory, one of Oxford’s great landmarks of discovery. It is a rare opportunity to be part of an exciting new network while supporting something of lasting significance, and we hope many other forward-looking organisations will join us.

Chris Winchester, CEO of Oxford PharmaGenesis and Associate Fellow, Green Templeton College

A BUILDING OF NATIONAL IMPORTANCE Participation in the Radcliffe 100 helps secure the future of the Radcliffe Observatory. Completed in 1794, the Observatory is one of Oxford’s most iconic landmarks and one of the finest surviving eighteenth-century observatories in Europe. For more than 250 years it has been associated with scientific discovery, medical research and the advancement of knowledge. Only 2.5% of England’s listed buildings are designated Grade I, a status reserved for buildings of

12

exceptional architectural or historic interest. The Radcliffe Observatory is one of them. Today, Green Templeton College is undertaking an ambitious programme of conservation and renewal to ensure that the building continues to serve future generations. Essential works are now required to secure its future, improve accessibility and strengthen its role as the heart of college life.
