Delighted for the opportunity to give a presentation about Cambridge Tech last week at Founders at the University of Cambridge's Demo Day in at Kings Place in London. Huge thanks to Gerard Grech for making this happen. A link to the PDF and some other data will follow in the comments. Some takeaways:  🧬 Cambridge ranks third globally, following Boston, in terms of output per capita in scientific and engineering breakthroughs making their way to making their way into products and companies 📈 Cambridge represents 18% of UK's tech value, with only 3% of the input! It produces over $16.9 in value for every dollar of VC investment. A testament to the potential when academia, entrepeneurship and venture capital converge 🧪 Cambridge is the #1 university in Europe for producing spinouts, showcasing its robust pipeline of innovation Great to see these findings got covered by BBC News TV, City AM, and others. Curious about Cohort 1.0? AetoSense – applying patented technology to drive precision in air quality monitoring, addressing potential health hazards BioTryp Therapeutics – dividing bacteria to conquer infections and provide an alternative to traditional antibiotics, starting with urinary tract infections BravelyCultured – using a proprietary marine microbial biobank and solid-state cultivation methods to replace animal- and petroleum-based products Cambridge Vision Technology – early detection of Alzheimer’s Molyon – creating next generation high-energy density batteries for weight-critical applications Nanomation – building computer vision software for the semiconductor industry to enable clients to build products using advanced, complex nanomaterials Orbit – using non-invasive nanotechnology to create a smart fitness device for brains, making mental health data transparent and actionable Protonera – turning waste plastics into valuable commodities to make recycling work VOLTQUANT – fixing the UK electricity grid to solve one of the biggest challenges preventing Net Zero   William Oak – developing a point-of-care test for micronutrient deficiencies to improve maternal, infant and child health Xterna – engineering a cell-targeting platform that delivers therapeutic cargo to specific cell types cc Dealroom.co, Orla Browne, Serena Connor

That’s a wrap on the pitches! Well done to our 11 teams who gave brilliant presentations. It’s not easy to streamline years’ worth of research and development into a five-minute pitch, but our cohort founders have done a phenomenal job of showcasing the impact their game-changing technologies can make.

Yesterday Start 1.0., the first Founders at the University of Cambridge accelerator wrapped with Demo Day at Kings Place in London. My overriding feeling this morning is that the founders on the programme are such a great group of people, and I have loved working with them for the last three months. Also, their pitches were amazing! Congratulations: Molly Haugen (AetoSense) Ashraf Zarkan (BioTryp Therapeutics) James Dunce (BravelyCultured) Andrew Kadis (Cambridge Vision Technology) Ismail Sami (Molyon) Teja Potocnik (Nanomation) Akshat Sharma (Orbit) Jack Chengzhi Guo (Protonera) Nikita Dabizha (VOLTQUANT) Alexander Patto (William Oak Diagnostics) Jessica Corry (Xterna) There are a ton of people to thank, but I want to highlight one. Anne Dobrée leaves Cambridge Enterprise today after 23 years. Founders at the University of Cambridge wouldn't exist, and I wouldn't be in Cambridge without her. Working with her has been a total pleasure, and she is going to be very missed. Thank you Anne.
