Our ethos

We believe scientists make great entrepreneurs

We believe the next big breakthroughs will emerge at the intersection of fields like quantum, AI, and biotechnology — and that spinouts are the most powerful way to turn those innovations into global impact.

The first step is empowering those at the forefront of knowledge with the right infrastructure, training, resources and investment.

Science Creates is laying the foundations for bold ideas and innovation to thrive and scale, nationwide.

Our ecosystem

We have supportedover 150 startups working to improve the health of people and the planet

Kelpi

Kelpi is tackling plastic pollution by developing sustainable alternatives to single-use plastic packaging. It uses seaweed to create a unique bioplastic coating that provides a world-leading water barrier for new-generation packaging while being recyclable, biodegradable, and low carbon. By working with major food and drink, cosmetics and home care brands, Kelpi is already reducing reliance on fossil-fuel plastics and paving the way for a greener future in these industries.

CellVoyant

CellVoyant is accelerating the development of novel stem cell-based therapies for chronic diseases. Its technology uses AI-first live cell imaging to predict and optimise stem cell differentiation, enable advanced cell analytics and ultimately unlock the controllable manufacturing of any cell and tissue in the body at scale. Built on foundational research at the University of Bristol, CellVoyant works at the intersection of cell biology, computing, engineering and machine learning to carry out its mission.

Herd Climate CIC

Herd Climate is a not-for-profit addressing the pressing agricultural challenge of enteric methane emissions produced by farming animals. It works directly with farmers, researchers and young people to bridge the gap between climate-smart scientific advancements and on-the-ground practices through innovative research, accessible science communication and engaging networking events. This equips agricultural communities - who are at the forefront of climate solutions - with actionable insights for collaborative, sustainable farming practices.

Our focus

Why Deep Tech?

Deep Tech refers to innovations based on major breakthroughs in science and engineering, often built on years of research and proprietary technology to solve global challenges. Unlike regular tech, it focuses on transformative, long-term solutions in fields like AI, quantum, synthetic biology and advanced materials.

Deep Tech has the power to revolutionise industries, create new markets, and improve lives. From AI-driven healthcare to sustainable energy and quantum technologies, it tackles critical global issues.

We specialise in Deep Tech for its potential to drive systemic change and create significant impact, providing patient capital and strategic support to turn groundbreaking ideas into scalable businesses.
