What We Do

We are not a traditional accelerator, consultancy or trade platform. Instead, we:

Collaboration Insight

Independent, context-rich understanding of cross-border environments

Governance Awareness

Clarity on regulatory, ethical and quality expectations

Cultural Intelligence

Capability for cross-cultural scientific and organisational collaboration

Capability Pathways

IN2UK and IN2China as structured readiness frameworks

Ecosystem Connections

Dialogue-driven, trust-based engagement (not brokerage)

Our role is to coordinate, enable and connect. We do not provide specialised services directly; instead, we partner with organisations such as legal firms, tech transfer offices and innovation platforms on both sides.

Vision

Enabling responsible and well-grounded international collaboration in life sciences.

Mission

Supporting organisations with the governance insight, cultural understanding and capability needed for productive cross-border research and innovation.

Who We Work With

For founders or early-stage teams seeking to establish and grow; for scale-ups exploring international pathways.

A university, innovation district or research institute.

Investors with a cross-border focus.

A healthcare or medtech ecosystem leader.

A policy or regulatory stakeholder.

A corporate innovation team.

We also collaborate with specialised service organisations — including legal firms, tech transfer offices and investment advisory groups — as part of building cross-border pathways.
