20+ years in funding with Anne Dobree

  • Summary

  • This week we talk about a career in tech transfer, commercialisation, and seed funding with Anne Dobree.


    We hear about the growth of Cambridge Enterprise, the introduction of new programmes like Founders at The University of Cambridge, how the relationship with Parkwalk Advisors began, and how Cambridge Innovation Capital started.


    It’s a fascinating discussion about how Cambridge developed from nascent to buoyant for science and tech innovators, with Anne as a key anchor for over two decades.

    Anne shares some sound advice to entrepreneurs, including:


    · Don’t underestimate the value of boards

    · Connect on LinkedIn

    · Use your network to get an introduction

    · And one we particularly like – never underestimate young teams!


    Anne, now Investor Director at Parkwalk Advisors, also talks about how things are different on a practical level. She talks about seeking companies to invest in and helping them as they grow, deal flow, and how she’s more likely to say ‘no’ now than in the Cambridge Enterprise Ventures.
