We are the UK’s leading cross-university PhD deeptech venture programme. Since launching in 2018, we’ve supported more than 500 PhD students to launch deeptech ventures based on their research, creating 125 companies that have raised £100+ million in early-stage investments and grants. As a not-for-profit, we take no equity in the companies we help build, and the programme is offered at no cost to students.
Join our second Cohort 8 Discovery Session to learn about becoming part of the next Conception X cohort, which will run from April to November 2025. This session will cover the following:
- Programme overview presentation, including eligibility criteria, timeline and benefits
- Live testimonials from alumni
- Walk-through of the application process
- Q&A with Olivia Ash, Conception X Programme and Portfolio Manager
Conception X offers a combination of training sessions designed specifically for PhD students, one-to-one coaching opportunities, access to the UK's largest community of PhD founders and a nationwide network of industry experts, as well as warm introductions to investors.
The top startups in our Cohort 8 focusing on AI, quantum computing, robotics, biotech and other breakthrough technologies will have the chance to be considered for potential funding of up to £250,000 through Conception X's partnership with XTX Ventures.
