NG Studios x KQ Labs Cohort 2 Demo Day
About this Event
Join us for the NG Studios x KQ Labs Demo Day, showcasing the second cohort of five emerging life sciences spinouts from the Northern Universities.
Meet the next generation of UK life sciences ventures as their founders pitch companies built around cutting-edge research developing new cardiovascular risk prediction technologies, precision drug dosing and precision oncology, new therapeutic approaches, and more. Discover their technologies and connect with investors, industry leaders and the wider UK life sciences community over breakfast.
We’ll also be joined by two entrepreneurs who have taken UK life science innovation onto the global stage. Ed Tate, co-founder of Myricx, and Will West, CEO of CellCentric, will join Barbara Domayne-Hayman for a fireside chat about building and scaling companies from breakthrough science. The conversation comes at a particularly exciting moment, following Myricx’s recently announced agreement to be acquired by Novartis for up to $1.5bn and CellCentric’s $220m Series D financing.
Join us at the Francis Crick Institute in London to meet the founders, discover emerging technologies and hear first-hand what it takes to build globally ambitious life science companies from the UK.
We can't wait to see you there. Register today!
About the NG Studios x KQ Labs Programme
The NG Studios x KQ Labs programme is a four-month pre-seed accelerator supporting selected life sciences spinouts from Northern Universities. Founders receive bespoke venture-building support across strategy, operations and capital-raising, combining world-class translational science with venture-building expertise to help founders build strong, investable companies from day one.
Together, Northern Gritstone and KQ Labs support emerging life sciences companies from the Universities of Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield and, new this year, Newcastle.
