Session Overview

Cambridge is renowned for transforming world-leading research into globally successful businesses. This fireside chat explores how intellectual property moved from being a technical consideration to becoming a strategic business asset throughout Cambridge GaN Devices' journey - from university research and spin-out formation through fundraising, commercialisation, partnerships and international growth.

The discussion will examine the practical decisions faced, what investors really look for during diligence, and how a strong relationship between innovator and IP adviser can help accelerate growth.

Drawing on Cambridge GaN Devices evolution from Cambridge University research, company formation in 2016, seed funding, Series A and Series B rounds, customer validation and mass production, the session will demonstrate how IP can support every stage of a high-growth technology company's lifecycle.
