Our North West Deeptech Mixer event took place last week, in partnership with @LivUni @livunibusiness! Supported by @eagle_labs & @SciTechgovuk, we brought together researchers, industry experts, investors, & entrepreneurs from the region for drinks and deeptech discussion. 🧵

We've released our first short documentary about Cohort 3 startup, Infinitopes 🔬🚀 Infinitopes completed our programme in 2020 and has since raised more than $18 million to develop affordable cancer vaccines to prevent metastasis. Watch it here: youtu.be/DZViebvpPaE

@MrDan_Todd built his first @Invenirex prototype in his front room whilst at @UniofNewcastle. Today, he’s a CX finalist with investment from XTX Ventures @xtxmarkets His microfluidic chips and a custom-built AI object detection scanner will accelerate life science discoveries.

Tim Capper & Will Murphy are both completing a PhD @OfficialUoM @UoMSciEng, but only met on the Conception X programme. Now, they’ve combined forces to build @optisparkenergy! OptiSpark's AI and mathematical optimisation models will reduce bills for households with a heat pump.

Producing protein is stressful and hugely time consuming. ProPrep will reduce costs and increase productivity for scientists who produce proteins for medicines, bringing down manual working hours from 30 hours to 30 minutes. Christopher D’Souza presents from @Bruneluni

@Osiris_Systems, co-founded by PhD student Mikhail Vasenin at @NorthumbriaUni, interprets data to make recommendations and suggest tasks for large businesses. Using AI, the team aim to revolutionise corporate data analysis and reduce inconsistencies.

No one goes into hospital to become more ill - but it’s an environment where infections can easily spread between vulnerable people. As CEO Ashleigh Myall explains, NEX.Q predicts outbreaks to prevent infections and save lives through AI guided interventions. @ImperialMaths

NeuWave Technologies is a @OfficialUoM @UoMSciEng venture from founder Jana Stella. This deeptech startup offers an unique, unified approach with their AI Solution for rapid offshore renewables transition, reducing planning delays for #offshorewind farms.

Next up is propmoolah, who are disrupting the #realestate sector by automating lead generation. Their ML-powered software and business has been developed by a team from @ucl and @LSEGeography. Watch them pitch here: bit.ly/3QallpG

What happens when you embed real time automated analytics and #AI in manufacturing? Millions of dollars worth of savings, plus a reduction in fatal accidents and #carbonfootprint. Led by Prateek Tripathi, AIRS ML (@imperialeee) already has interest from industry leaders.
