2024 Summer School Wrap Up
The return of the University of Minnesota, Carlson School of Management came to an end on 19 July.
We were delighted to once again collaborate with the UMN team to bring their valuation lab programme to Cambridge.
This programme saw students coming over from the US to work in project teams with UK students on evaluating four of our portfolio companies - Enhanc3d Genomics, Drishti Discoveries, Octiocor and Awen Oncology.
Groups spent two weeks, working incredibly hard, before presenting their findings to the companies involved. The company leaders who joined the final presentations were hugely impressed by what had been achieved in such a short space of time.
As well as the project work, we were very grateful to have the support of many of our partners, to enrich the experience further with visits, tours and talks. Our thanks go to Cambridge University Health Partners, NIHR Clinical Research Facility, AstraZeneca, Royal Papworth Hospital, Mayo Clinic London and Babraham Research Campus - including the Live Labs team, Five Alarm Bio and Creasallis - for giving you time to engage with the participants.
