Innovators
During the course of your studies, research project or technical investigation, you often create far more than your primary research outcome. New methods, processes, tools, algorithms, workflows and problem-solving approaches emerge as you overcome challenges and pursue discovery.
Many of these innovations are never explored beyond the project that created them. Not because they lack value, but because their creators are focused on research rather than commercialisation.
8 Cambridge helps researchers, scientists and innovators identify whether these overlooked innovations have commercial potential without requiring them to become entrepreneurs.
Simply describe your innovation and our AI-powered assessment system will evaluate its potential value, industry relevance and possible routes to impact. If an opportunity exists, specialist experts can help develop it into a commercially valuable asset while you remain focused on your research.
Your research remains the priority. We simply help uncover and develop additional value that may have been created along the way, ensuring promising innovations have the opportunity to reach the organisations and industries that could benefit from them.
So, it may be time for you to share your innovation with 8 Cambridge where we are focused on the commercialisation of great new innovations quickly and simply.
We’ll help your innovation find the right experts and partners so it can grow without you needing to become an entrepreneur.
Which, in the end, means that your innovation finally has the chance to change the world and is not left on the shelf.
If you are interested, then there’s a simple step forward which involves telling us what your innovation is in detail and you can do that right here, right now.
How 8 Cambridge Works
We take great ideas without a natural route to market and give them a pathway to success.
Step 1
The first stage involved the capture of the essence of new innovations. Innovators share promising concepts with us that don’t yet have a business owner or route to market. Usually, these innovators are not suited to developing businesses round their ideas; they may be involved in research or are caught up in other more pressing activities which prevent them from dedicating time to commercialisation
Step 2
8 Cambridge evaluates the submitted innovations and filters out the ones that are market-ready and which have significant potential. It then identifies what expert work is needed to take these innovations to the next level and brings in the right set of expertise and experience to rapidly shape, validate and strengthen ideas to make them implementable and valuable.
Step 3
Once the experts have worked their magic the innovations are offered to corporations that are hungry for new ideas and find it hard to innovate internally. They can align themselves with innovations that match their priorities and implement them quickly within their existing operations.
