Venture Capital in United Kingdom – Cambridge Research and Innovation Limited

CRIL is an investment fund for innovators who are creating valuable new technology through their research. For each venture which CRIL supports they work closely with the innovators, building a venture around their technology. In addition to funds, CRIL invests a considerable amount of its management\'s time in nurturing the venture through the early stages of its growth. CRIL\'s capital comes from pensions funds, insurance companies, the University of Cambridge, and some of its Colleges. CRIL is looking for: new technologies with specific applications, where the technology so applied produces products which have significant advantages over competing products; new technologies which can be protected by patent design registration or copyright; and technologies which have the potential to address large, possibly global, markets. © The Chancellor, Masters and Scholars of the University of Cambridge
