Company activities and impact

SoTA’s activities focused on redirecting exceptional talent to critical technologies and building technical talent density in the UK. The year saw SoTA’s members starting new R&D contractors and deeptech companies raising institutional risk capital to build their ventures and advance technoscientific progress. They also joined emerging UK technology companies in high-impact roles across biotechnologies, neurotechnologies, robotics and AI for scientific discovery
