What is the Cambridge Corporate Gateway?
Cambridge Corporate Gateway is an opportunity for international companies and investment houses to gain access to diverse, world-leading technology and product development that takes place in the East of England.
How does it work?
The Corporate Gateway takes the form of a two-day event that offers delegates an individually crafted programme of one-to-one meetings with leading University of Cambridge researchers and new technology companies. You outline your areas of interest and we work with you to set up the meetings with relevant people,based on your criteria.
Why should you attend?
Cambridge Corporate Gateway is a unique way to connect with both the University and diverse enterprises operating in sectors ranging from biotechnology to telemetry, materials to printing. This is your chance to find out about the latest advances so your business can stay one step ahead.
