It was a huge 'pinch me' moment last week to represent VividQ in the Scale Up competition for Cambridge Tech Week, in the historic The Cambridge Union Debating Chamber, which I fondly remember as an audience member in my student years! We were absolutely delighted to win the peoples' vote for best pitch, and it was fantastic to meet so many people excited about VividQ's plans to Scale Up! Huge thanks to the judges (sure I've missed a few!) : Shailendra Vyakarnam, Cian Hughes, Prashant Shah, Manjari Chandran-Ramesh, PhD, Martin Rigby

Great to be included in this. We’re proud to be part of and contribute to the incredible Cambridge ecosystem 💪🏻 Learn more about our journey at our Fringe Event with Cambridge Tech Week tonight!

Academic and research bodies in the East of England are producing record billions for the UK economy, with the Cambridge Cluster to the fore. Drilling down to funding raised by Cambridge companies with institutional links alone, a staggering $1.35 billion has been harvested by pioneering corporate innovators in the last 12 months. Business Weekly’s ‘Brain Gain’ research focuses on money raised by Cambridge technology and life science game changers with roots in academic and institutional research organisations such as the University of Cambridge, Wellcome Sanger Institute, Cambridge Judge Business School and the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB). Two particularly large transactions from Cambridge companies with relevant links stand out from the last 12 months – the $555 million harvested on Nasdaq in the US by Bicycle Therapeutics in May and the $300m raise that swept Quantinuum to multi-unicorn status in January. Bicycle’s technology arose from research at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) in Cambridge. Quantinuum was originally known as Cambridge Quantum Computing (CQC) and was founded in 2014 through the University of Cambridge Judge Business School’s ‘Accelerate Cambridge’ programme. Other Cambridge companies contributing to the $1.35bn total include Apollo Therapeutics, Cambridge Mechatronics Ltd, CellCentric, Echion Technologies, ExpressionEdits, GraphEnergyTech, Healx, Immaterial, Mission Therapeutics, Nu Quantum , Prospectral, Psyomics, Quotient Therapeutics, Riverlane, Sano Genetics, Sparxell, T-Therapeutics Ltd, Vianautis, VividQ, Xampla and Zetta Genomics Ltd.

Today we publish a report, written by seasoned games journalist Will Freeman, on the impact of holography on VR gaming. It features insights and contributions from leaders in the field of VR game development: Tommy Palm, Dave Ranyard, Jesse Schell, and Russ Harding. “I concluded that computer-generated holography opens up all kinds of potential for new forms of interaction, increased immersion, greater realism, refined user experiences and interfaces, longer play sessions, and more physically comfortable experiences,” said the report’s author Will Freeman.
