Following the success of last year鈥檚 event, which attracted more than 5,000 delegates including senior leaders, international investors and policymakers, Cambridge Tech Week 2026 is set to expand its emphasis on cross-border collaboration and ecosystem connectivity.
It will explore how regions around the world can work together to accelerate the commercialisation and global deployment of deep-tech innovation.
Across the week, sessions will explore developments in sectors including MedTech, HealthTech, AI and ClimateTech, alongside discussions on international expansion, regulatory frameworks and access to capital for scaling deep-tech companies.
A central feature of the programme, Innovation Alley, will once again provide a high-profile platform for emerging startups and scaling technology companies to showcase their innovations to investors, partners and global markets.
