Kick-off the New Year KB Talks and discover the exciting entrepreneurial community at the University of Edinburgh. 

We are thrilled to announce that we'll be joined by Alex Teng, a partner at Fifty Years, a Silicon Valley-based venture capital firm, that has backed over 100 deep tech companies and helped them raise $4.6 Billion in funding. They also published the Spinout Playbook, the ultimate guide to spin out of academia. 

Alex will speak about his insights from helping hundreds of scientists translate breakthrough science into deep tech startups. The talk will be followed by Q&A, a pizza lunch and networking. 

Taking place:

• Wednesday 15th January 2025 
• 12noon-1.30pm
• Murchison House, Kings Buildings Campus  

This event will run once in semester one and again in semester two with different speakers at each session.
