Scientist to Founder: Building the UK's Next Wave of Deep Tech Startups - Fifty Years x CSEN
An exciting event organised by Crick Science Entrepreneur Network (CSEN) and Fifty Years VC
How do I turn my breakthrough science into a startup? Am I addressing a problem with a large enough market? How do I recruit a team? Am I the right person to do it?
Whether you're curious about entrepreneurship or ready to commercialize your research, join us to hear from Seth Bannon and Alex Teng, Partners at Fifty Years, about what they’ve learnt supporting hundreds of scientists translating breakthrough science into deep tech startups.
Fifty Years is a leading Silicon Valley VC firm that has backed over 100 deep tech companies, helped them raise over $4.6B, and has published the Spinout Playbook, the ultimate guide to spin out of academia.
We've distilled everything we know about deep tech entrepreneurship into 5050, a free, 16-week program to help great scientists and engineers become great founders. 5050 is coming to the UK to equip scientists and engineers to start and build the next decade of civilization-defining companies. We’ll dive into how to identify civilization-scale problems to tackle, develop essential entrepreneurship skills (from hiring to fundraising to negotiating IP), and grow into a great founder.
We'll have food and drinks!
5050 UK is powered through our partnership with the Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA)
