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.
Microsol is accelerating the development of orally inhaled and nasal drug products. By combining cutting-edge measurement capabilities with advanced predictive simulations, its formulation technology solutions modulate aerosol dynamics and optimise performance. Its highly scalable software enables computational screenings of formulations, increasing throughput and allowing laboratory studies to focus on the most promising candidates.
Herd Climate is a not-for-profit addressing the pressing agricultural challenge of enteric methane emissions produced by farming animals. It works directly with farmers, researchers and young people to bridge the gap between climate-smart scientific advancements and on-the-ground practices through innovative research, accessible science communication and engaging networking events. This equips agricultural communities - who are at the forefront of climate solutions - with actionable insights for collaborative, sustainable farming practices.
Kelpi is tackling plastic pollution by developing sustainable alternatives to single-use plastic packaging. It uses seaweed to create a unique bioplastic coating that provides a world-leading water barrier for new-generation packaging while being recyclable, biodegradable, and low carbon. By working with major food and drink, cosmetics and home care brands, Kelpi is already reducing reliance on fossil-fuel plastics and paving the way for a greener future in these industries.
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.
