Bioengineering Pathways: Academia and Entrepreneurship

Join Nucleate UK as we explore career pathways in bioengineering, with a particular focus on translating research into startups and real-world impact, and how academic careers and entrepreneurship can complement one another. This event is aimed at PhD students and Early Career Researchers (ECRs). The session will highlight how scientists can navigate careers spanning academia, industry, and entrepreneurship. Drawing on the experiences of our speakers, we will explore complementary career trajectories, including:

• ​Transitioning across international biotech ecosystems and startup environments

• ​Combining academic leadership with company co-founding

• ​Bridging fundamental research with commercial application, particularly in sustainability and climate biotech

​Whether you are exploring commercialisation, developing new technologies, or considering future career directions, join us to hear inspiring stories and learn how Nucleate UK partners with Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA) to accelerate ambitious ideas.
