We are dedicated to advancing discoveries to beat cancer by developing and commercialising exciting new discoveries in cancer research. Our deep understanding of both academia and industry enables us to translate promising research into commercial propositions to deliver patient benefit and commercial value that will support further cancer research. Cancer Research UK (CRUK), through its subsidiary Cancer Research Technology Ltd, has exclusive rights to more than £450m of world-class cancer research annually. As funders of much of the exciting science happening in the UK and beyond today, we offer unique opportunities to commercial partners looking for early involvement in new discoveries. Our relationship with the CRUK-funded researcher community is important to us and is at the heart of our ambition to translate good science. Therefore, we are committed to excellence in our interactions with the CRUK-funded researchers, to ensure the translational and commercialisation journey with CRUK is a positive one. We believe this will lead to more engagement in translational research from our scientific community and ultimately lead to increased patient benefit.
