This is the September edition of our spinout tracker (you can access previous months here). The list is updated weekly throughout the month.
We welcome submissions from tech transfer offices with information on their latest spinouts.
If you would like one of your portfolio companies considered for inclusion in a future list, please send us an email. Eligible companies must be early-stage. However, they need not have raised capital yet and can use this list to advertise that they are open to investors.
