Portfolio managers
Our portfolio managers have a science and engineering background that can help you navigate through the wealth of information available to assist you to select the most appropriate partners.
They operate in teams, called themes, with each portfolio manager having responsibility for specific areas of research within their theme. The links below will take you to the contact pages of each theme, allowing you to find the portfolio manager closest to your research interests.
Alternatively if your question, enquiry or need is more general you can contact a member of the business engagement team.
