Elevator Pitch Brings Spin-Outs into Spotlight
Jun 22 2016
Ten companies from SETsquared, the leading university business incubator, competed in an ‘elevator pitch’ to promote their businesses at the Annual Innovation Showcase on 15 June. SETsquared Company Interactive Scientific scooped the award for Best Elevator Pitch, thrilling the audience with their presentation about making simulations in the molecular nano-world using their NanoSimbox platform. Becky Sage, Managing Director of the winning venture, commented: “We are delighted to have been selected for the Best Elevator Pitch. We are currently fundraising, so the event has provided us with a great opportunity to raise awareness about our business.”
Robin Geller, the Registrar of the University of Bristol, said: “We are in fast-changing times and we must keep abreast of and support new technologies as well as new business methods. The University is fully committed to innovation. Thriving as a tech cluster would not be possible without strong linkages and collaboration between the city, industry and academia.”
The Innovation Showcase was sponsored by Veale Wasbrough Vizards, Barclays and Smith & Williamson and kindly hosted at Veale Wasbrough Vizards’ Bristol office. The showcase provided an invaluable opportunity for the region’s high-tech, high-growth companies to network with potential investors, corporate partners and academics.
