About

A first-in-class newsletter

Cambridge Biocapital is the independent weekly newsletter covering  business, funding and science news in the world-leading British biotech & VC ecosystem.

The United Kingdom biotech hub is one of the fastest growing and most rapidly changing ecosystems in the world. More than a third of all European biotech startups are established in Britain and  have raised more venture capital and IPO funding than other biotech startups across Europe.

Keeping up with such dynamic scene is challenging and, until now, there was not a go-to publication for those interested in the field, from scientists to investors and entrepreneurs.

Cambridge Biocapital is more than just a newsletter. It is a manually curated, fully-fledged publication that aims to contribute to the ecosystem clarifying the biotech dealflow and highlighting interesting opportunities. It has a particular focus on the Cambridge area, as well as London and Oxford, due to their relative importance for the country's hub.

M.Sc.Eng., Ph.Dc in Biochemistry

My name is Andrea Martos Esteban. I came to the UK in 2018 and immediately became a Cambridge enthusiast. The fast-paced, diverse and business-friendly environment persuaded me to start Cambridge Biocapital, wishing I could craft a weekly piece that would allow readers to be on top of what the British biotech and VC ecosystem is up to in just 10 minutes.

I am a scientist by training and love how people, business and science intersect to create value in so many different dimensions.

🚲 Cycling and ☕ coffee are my two other passions. But let's leave that for another occasion.

The newsletter

Every Friday morning, Cambridge Biocapital subscribers receive a single, easy to read email that summarises and contextualises what the British biotech & VC ecosystem has been up to.
