Angel Alliance

Newcastle and Durham Universities have joined forces in a partnership which aims to maximise the impact of the scientific discoveries being made at both leading research institutions. The partnership focuses on enhancing the research base and turning academic research into commercial success. The Angel Alliance builds on the long-standing expertise and an impressive track record in both universities in creating spin out companies.

The structure supports the translation of technology from the non-clinical to the clinical sector through direct engagement with the clinical base of the regional NHS Foundation Trusts including the Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust and South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust alongside Newcastle University’s Faculty of Medical Sciences.
