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, engineering biology and advanced materials — the UK government's designated frontier industries.

Deep Tech can revolutionise entire industries, create high-skilled jobs and unlock new economic growth while improving lives.

We specialise in Deep Tech because the social, environmental and economic returns are proportional to the ambition. It demands patient capital and deep technical understanding, and that's exactly what we're built to provide.

Our ecosystem

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

NuNano

NuNano is advancing the field of atomic force microscopy with high-precision probes for nanometer-scale imaging. Its proprietary microfabrication processes produce reliable, high-quality probes with market-leading dimensional tolerances. It also provides dedicated support to its customers, from probe selection to storage, for a seamless user experience.

POM Health Ltd

POM Health sought to achieve better healthcare outcomes by empowering both patients and clinicians. Its mission was to bridge the gap in patient-doctor communication by providing holistic, trend-level data to meet doctors' needs and workflows for better diagnosis and care. POM Health is no longer active.

PicturaBio

Pictura Bio is creating a rapid pathogen detection platform to scale diagnostics for infectious diseases at the point of care. Combining the power of single-molecule fluorescent microscopy with machine learning and optical engineering, its patented technology is able to identify an array of pathogens in under a minute. This enables faster, affordable and universally accessible diagnostics to accurately determine the causes of infections.
