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.

Fine Agrochemicals is enhancing crop quality for fruit and flower growers in agricultural, ornamental and landscape markets using its plant growth regulator (PGR) technology. Its PGR products, made using naturally occurring molecules through fermentation and combined with chemically synthesised compounds, help stimulate plant cells to enhance nutrient levels and targeted growth for improved crop outputs.

Carbometrics is striving to improve diabetes patient care by enhancing technology for continuous glucose monitoring. The team aims to pave the way for a new class of highly-accurate sensors with its groundbreaking synthetic molecule that is both chemically stable and able to bind to glucose in the blood. This follows on from the work of exited startup Ziylo Ltd, which was Science Creates’ very first resident and acquired by Novo Nordisk in 2018.

GenomeKey is transforming how healthcare clinicians diagnose and treat infections like sepsis to improve patient outcomes. Using cutting-edge machine learning and DNA sequencing, the company is developing a next-generation diagnostic device to identify bacterial genomes and determine their antimicrobial susceptibility directly from patient blood in just a few hours, rather than days. This enables clinicians to prescribe the right antibiotics for patients with much more efficiency and accuracy, reducing costs, minimising unnecessary antibiotic use and ultimately saving millions of lives from the world’s leading cause of death.

Uplift360 is developing chemical-based regeneration technologies to recover and reuse critical industrial materials such as carbon fibre and aramid. Its vision is to lead the way in circular economy innovation, creating a future where advanced materials are never wasted. Backed by the UK Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA), Luxembourg Government Directorate of Defence and Innovate UK, it enables circular and secure supply chains for high-performance sectors.

Reach Industries is optimising lab and scientist efficiency with its Lumi™ visual intelligence platform. By automating data capture and analysis for experiments, observations and complex scientific workflows, the platform functions as a streamlined operating system that is accelerating R&D, improving compliance and increasing reproducibility.
