Championing & connecting the Cambridge entrepreneurial ecosystem

Connecting Cambridge Innovation

Cambridge is a world-leading innovation ecosystem, and the University sits at the heart of it offering a wealth of programmes, facilities and expertise to inspire and support entrepreneurship.

Every entrepreneurial journey is unique. We work to support you as University of Cambridge researchers and students to access and explore the wide range of entrepreneurial programmes, services and spaces through a single community; propelling your innovation journey from idea to impact.

For others looking to connect to, or better understand and learn from the University’s success in research commercialisation and venture creation, we work with external partners. Connecting with those who want to support our emerging ventures with professional support or investment, as well as global partners to learn from our expertise to create global impact, to build capacity and help unlock innovation in their own ecosystems.

Convening a world-leading entrepreneurial ecosystem to support University innovators, and helping external partners to connect to it.
