We create new value by fostering connections between people and technology, continuously exploring and expanding possibilities. This drive has led us to support a wide range of projects for companies, startups, and public sector organisations.

In a fast-paced business environment, the path to success may not always be straightforward – you may face steep inclines, sudden drops, and unexpected challenges. However, you can count on us to guide you through every step of the journey.

Our Strength

Networks reaching beyond a single ecosystem

Based in Harwell Campus, Oxfordshire in the UK and Nihonbashi Life Science Building in Japan, our operations are situated in thriving ecosystems of numerous scientific startups.

We leverage our strategic geographical positioning, in Europe and Asia. Our core strength is our network culminated over 25 years of experience working together with academics, public sectors, and business channels. We are committed to share these assets with our partners to guide your business.

Bespoke Business Strategy

Multidisciplinary perspectives, objective evaluations, and targeted strategies are vital for the growth of emerging ideas and enterprises.

Our consultants have experience working for large companies and start-ups in the chemicals, materials, energy, biotechnology, drug discovery, and life sciences industry. We analyze the necessary strategies for your new business and offer advice that is tailored to your needs.

Support for new entries into the life sciences ventures

While an increasing number of companies in the chemicals, materials, and energy industries are entering the life science business, we see many struggle to establish new networks due to disparities in their business methods and supply chains. These differences frequently hinder the smooth formation of connections and collaborations

Our expertise in various industries enables us to provide route-to-market strategies to bridge this gap and assist in early-stage global market deployment.
