Innovation Bridge
Build an Innovation Bridge with Pioneer
How a Partnership is Shaped
We Build on the Strengths Already in Place
Every partnership starts with the research, companies and expertise already in place, and what local partners want to achieve. We connect these strengths with our wider network, drawing on experience of building and managing science and technology communities since 2003.
Together, we agree how venture building, venture capital and specialist facilities can support local priorities, then deliver them alongside local partners, with responsibilities shaped around each location.
The two-way Innovation Bridge gives both sides access to expertise, investment and new markets, so companies can build international relationships while growing where their science began.
Operating Evidence
Experience Across Different Settings Since 2003
Our work with companies, investors, universities and industry is grounded in the business we operate across the UK and Dublin. Company building, capital and specialist facilities work together around the businesses we support.
Since 2003, Pioneer has developed and managed innovation ecosystems, bringing research institutions, companies, investors and facilities together across locations and stages of growth. Built in the UK and Ireland, this experience informs how we approach similar commercialisation challenges in other science-led markets.
