Deep Science Ventures is a venture creator which has built >55 companies, now collectively worth £500m, and have raised >£200m from Breakthrough Energy Ventures, Lower Carbon Capital, Sequoia’s scout fund, Sam Altman and Patrick Collison, to solve problems like childhood cancer, produce the world’s most efficient pressurised hydrogen, halve
the cost of desalination and to deploy fungi to reforest the world. In each case: the product was invented rather than discovered, taking an engineering approach to science rather than licensing from academia.
