About CTA
Backed by Cancer Research UK and Cancer Research Horizons, the Cancer Tech Accelerator (CTA) provides projects with access to funding, mentorship, technical expertise, regulatory guidance, and other resources that can help them validate their technologies and bring their products to market more quickly.
Key benefits of the programme include:
Online and hybrid educational workshops tailored to the cancer tech journey like IP strategy, NHS procurement, market dynamics
Bespoke mentoring with international experts on themes like oncology, market access, clinical validation, and growth
Investor introductions and pitching to top UK medtech funds
Award funding in Phase II to catalyse your idea
Dynamic cohort of peers across the cancer tech space
There is also no equity taken, and it is open to academics, students, researchers, innovators, industry, and entrepreneurs.
