An insight into Science Creates
Founded by exited entrepreneurs, Science Creates is a Deep Tech ecosystem that enables scientists and engineers to turn their groundbreaking discoveries into disruptive businesses that can revolutionise the health of people and the planet.
We support our startup community with specialised lab space, expert training and mentoring, a network of partner organisations, and access to investment opportunities.
Through our independent charity and public events, we inspire the next generation of scientists and entrepreneurs.
Our ethos
We believe the next big breakthroughs will emerge at the intersection of fields like quantum, AI, and biotechnology — and that spinouts are the most powerful way to turn those innovations into global impact.
The first step is empowering those at the forefront of knowledge with the right infrastructure, training, resources and investment.
Science Creates is laying the foundations for bold ideas and innovation to thrive and scale, nationwide.
ReNewFood is producing novel protein-based flavouring ingredients with a focus on the plant-based and alt-protein markets. Its precision fermentation technology brings a new dimension to delivering healthy, great tasting alternative food with a much lower resource input and carbon footprint, making its ingredients good for both people and our planet.
Nellie Technologies is bioengineering carbon dioxide removal systems to mitigate the negative effects of climate change. It uses proprietary biological and mechanical engineering to capture carbon dioxide and convert it to biomass, and then to biochar and biogenic aggregates. Its system is designed to operate at speed and scale while delivering sustainable, affordable and effective carbon removal.
Pictura Bio is creating a rapid pathogen detection platform to scale diagnostics for infectious diseases at the point of care. Combining the power of single-molecule fluorescent microscopy with machine learning and optical engineering, its patented technology is able to identify an array of pathogens in under a minute. This enables faster, affordable and universally accessible diagnostics to accurately determine the causes of infections.
Our focus
Deep Tech refers to innovations based on major breakthroughs in science and engineering, often built on years of research and proprietary technology to solve global challenges. Unlike regular tech, it focuses on transformative, long-term solutions in fields like AI, quantum, synthetic biology and advanced materials.
Deep Tech has the power to revolutionise industries, create new markets, and improve lives. From AI-driven healthcare to sustainable energy and quantum technologies, it tackles critical global issues.
We specialise in Deep Tech for its potential to drive systemic change and create significant impact, providing patient capital and strategic support to turn groundbreaking ideas into scalable businesses.
Designed for flexibility, our new 30,000 sq ft of lab, office, and meeting space for startups and scaleups is set to open in late 2025 in Bristol’s city centre.
Applications to join our bespoke, fully-funded programme delivered in partnership with the UKRI are now open.
We invest in Deep Tech at the pre-seed and seed stages — and our endgame is global impact.
Available for hire for those working in the innovation sector, our versatile spaces can welcome a variety of events.
