2019 site: Milton Keynes University, MK:U

The 2019 Teambuild competition was based on a real current project: the Milton Keynes University (MK:U) for Cranfield University and Milton Keynes Council.

The MK:U project was to design and implement a £188m (c61,120 sqm) Phase 1 Business & Entrepreneurship faculty campus on a city centre site in Milton Keynes, which is due to open in Summer 2023.

“We chose this project because it is such an interesting concept of creating a new university focused on artificial intelligence and advances in information technology,” explains Teambuild Trustee, Richard Brindley. “It is also complex, involving residential, retail and academic spaces and involves an ambitious partnership between the MK Council and Cranford University. As it is a real project, as always, there is a sense that you can ‘feel it, touch it, see it’.”
