Connect: Health Tech is a new University Enterprise Zone (UEZ) for the University of Cambridge. Initially funded by Research England, it has been created to build a highly effective interdisciplinary bridge between two Cambridge research hubs โ€” the West science and technology hub anchored at the Maxwell Centre and South biomedical hub anchored at the Milner Therapeutics Institute. Powered by super-connectors and well-established networks at the University of Cambridge and beyond, the Connect: Health Tech community draws expertise and inputs from across the Cambridge Cluster, including academic institutions, NHS Trusts and business partners. The aim is to deliver a thriving online business and enterprise community that connects stakeholders and showcases Cambridge as a test-bed for novel models of innovation to accelerate the design, development and testing of the diagnostics, devices and therapies of the future. Our partners are key stakeholders across Cambridge University and the cluster and through this online community you can discover, meet and collaborate with members from across these groups and audiences outside of your sector, discipline or research areas.
