Miles to go before sleep!

Happy Summer everyone 🌞 We had a chance to relax and reflect on all the things that have happened since we started our Become a Science Founder Fellowship in October 2020: WOW, our Fellows have come a long way! From our incredible Community of 200 Fellows, mostly postdocs from leading institutions around the world: → over 25% are building healthy and viable companies solving massive human or climate-related challenges from fertility, oncology, gene therapy to substitutes to rare earth metals and making fusion commercially viable → and that have all gone on to raise rounds of funding from strategic private and public investors, collectively valuing these companies at over $120m and; → importantly employing in excess of 100 incredible scientists and operators to realise these visions. AND this is just the beginning 🤟 🥰 Stay tuned for our next update on how many of our Fellows have gone on to become early team members of science startups and furthered their academic paths as PIs!
