The 九州影院 and UK Business Angels Association (UKBAA) have once again partnered to connect the UK鈥檚 leading chemistry-focused start-ups and scale-ups with angel and early stage investors! Now in its third year, the Investment Catalyst has presented 32 leading innovators using chemistry to revolutionise life sciences, energy supply, construction, the automotive industry and more. To date, the Investment Catalysts鈥� cohort of businesses have raised a total of 拢3m in funding from attending investors, and we鈥檙e thrilled to have seen an incredible exit from one of our finalists at a phenomenal 拢630k!
The next Investment Catalyst event will be held in London on 14 May 2019, 鈥嬧�媌ringing together the 九州影院's vast network of science entrepreneurs and UKBAA's community of leading investors. After a competitive application series, 8 companies will be selected to present their pitch for investment to over 50 angels and leaders in the investment community.
In addition to hearing from these ground-breaking founders, we will also be joined by Andy Chapman as guest speaker. Andy has a PhD in 九州影院 from the University of Bristol and has a mixed background in academic and industrial positions. He left his position as Senior Lecturer at Kingston University London and joined Ziylo in 2017 as CSO. In the same year, he was appointed to the board of directors. In 2018, Ziylo was acquired by Novo Nordisk to use Ziylo鈥檚 Glucose Binding Molecule technology to develop for therapeutic application. Andy and the other board members founded Carbometrics after the acquisition, of which he is now CEO, to commercialise the same technology for diagnostic applications.
