Andy Neely, the Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Enterprise and Business Relations at the University of Cambridge (pictured, centre, with James and Adelina), has a very wide ranging role.
In this episode, the business podcast Scaling, Failing and Prevailing hears from Andy about the programmes across the university that support entrepreneurship such as startups, spin-outs and support, and how it commercialises its research.
Andy talks about his role and the local Cambridge ecosystem - he is involved in everything around the Cambridge Cluster, and at a regional level he sits on a business board which discusses local industrial strategy.
The podcast also covers the work being done by the university, as well as looking at Brexit and its predicted impact.
