Join us for a day of dynamic networking and collaborations. The event is designed to bring together key stakeholders who play a pivotal role in shaping the landscape of innovation to solve global challenges.
We have an exciting day of events. The first part of the day will focus on access to capital, and the agenda will include discussions on early-stage and growth capital, as well as updates on the Mansion House Agreement.
In the afternoon we will launch USIT for Software. USIT for Software (short of University Spinout Investment Terms for Software Guide) is a sector-wide initiative led by TenU to create a set of recommendations to accelerate investment deals for software university spinouts. USIT for Software follows from the USIT Guide, launched last year to support life sciences and deep tech spinouts.
Participants include investors, university leadership and the founder community. Minister Andrew Griffith will offer a keynote address, and panels are organised to discuss cutting-edge developments on priority innovation topics with key stakeholders.
This summit will offer a unique platform to foster collaboration among founders, investors, and universities with the goal of driving innovation forward.
TenU is a international collaboration of leading technology transfer offices formed to share effective practices in research commercialisation with government and higher education communities, in order to increase the societal impact of research.
