Published by HESA, the register is the most comprehensive dataset of its kind, providing the first open and auditable record of spinout activity across the UK青瓜视频檚 higher education sector. It captures all spinout companies established by UK universities between 2012/13 and 2023/24, offering a robust measure of how effectively research is being translated into commercial ventures.

The University of Manchester青瓜视频檚 performance reflects more than a decade of sustained effort to support its researchers in building successful, impactful businesses from world-class academic work. Driven by The University of Manchester Innovation Factory, 122 spinout companies were established during the period covered by the register, in fields ranging from advanced materials and biotech to environmental innovation.

The Innovation Factory plays a central role in this success. As the University青瓜视频檚 Technology Transfer Office (TTO), the Innovation Factory is responsible for the commercialisation of the University青瓜视频檚 research. This includes supporting the creation and development of spinout companies based on ideas and discoveries generated by the University青瓜视频檚 academics.
