Editor's Notes

  • #3 There are organisations, events, processes all connected like a metro. The linkages flow from one to the other – but it is not always clear.For more detailed information about each of the institutions – we need to look at Cambridge Technopole report (see website)While you make the links across the institutions I suggest you talk more about the way that multidisciplinary work is done in Cambridge – leading to work that can be commercialised.. Use your experience to describe CIKC....
  • #6 These three elements are at the heart of the portfolio of what happens around Cambridge.There is a community of support agencies – see slide 6 (next one) to understand how there is now a portfolio of support agencies in and around Cambridge...And they have collaborative spirit, mechanisms, largely because people know each other socially and due to work relationshipsAnd because they are individual organisations based on a variety of funding sources there is also a somewhat chaotic environment in which all the agencies operate – as in the next slide
  • #9 This is probably the bit everyone wants to have as an explanation – It is easier to deal with than the soft issuesSo – there iare sources of grant funding that come from the regional government agency; from central government grants that are routed via the university.Cambridge Enterprise has built solid links with the VC community so that it is possible to direct the researchers with new companies towards VCs –but this is not always a happy storyThere was only one science park to begin with now there are a dozen – scattered all round Cambrige. These are run on commericla rental values – but are designed to MINIMISE bureaucracy – so tenants can go in and out easilyt, can grow, etc,mThere is a certain level of space for growth of the technical aspects but when companies need to grow the commercial aspects of business they tend to be either sold to US firms or have an office in or near London and elsewhere – so Cambridge remains largely a technology centre of excellence
