The role of Translation and Entrepreneurship at Sanger: Our Case Studies and Role Models

Our case studies and role models show the journeys of very different scientitsts and the technologies they have developed. From our very first spin-out (Kymab), to accidental entrepreneurs, problem-solvers, all the way through to the stories of three scientific teams working on Malaria.

For Industry

We seek to partner with organisations that can help us deliver on our translation agenda. We work flexibly with industry and investors to apply our research to solve real world challenges. We use a range of mechanisms including R&D collaboration, licensing, or spinning out.
