About the Spinout Pipeline Project

The Scottish Government funded Spinout Pipeline Project, led by the University of Strathclyde, will help share commercialisation expertise across Scottish universities, culminating in a summit where innovators will pitch to potential investors.

In partnership with Edinburgh Innovations, the University of Edinburgh’s commercial arm, the project is building a more connected, inclusive innovation ecosystem: sparking new ventures, catalysing collaboration, and aligning efforts with Scotland’s National Innovation Strategy and the Entrepreneurial Campus Blueprint.

Let’s turn ideas into impact and build Scotland’s innovation future together.

Jackie Sanderson and Louise Arnold of Interface are participating in this workshop.
