University of Cambridge Building Business Partnerships

Cambridge is the home of computing in the UK, from Charles Babbage, through Alan Turing, the pioneers of personal computing in the 1980s and the global phenomenon of Arm, to the explosion of artificial intelligence and the emergence of quantum technologies.

Today, AI, cyber security, quantum computing and computer architecture are all areas of intense research and innovation across the University and the wider Cambridge ecosystem.

“Cambridge has some of the world’s smartest people tackling some of the world’s most urgent problems.

“But we can’t do it alone. We need to work with industry partners to get our ideas out of the lab and into the real world.”

Diarmuid O’Brien, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Innovation

We meet with four of the leading researchers from the Department of Computer Science and Technology, find out what they are working on – and why collaborating with industry is key to their success:

Artificial Intelligence – Professor Nic Lane on why we need new collaborative models for artificial intelligence and machine learning – and the benefits of working with industry partners.

Quantum computing – Dr Prakash Murali on designing the systems that will make the application of quantum computing a reality.

Combatting cybercrime – Professor Alice Hutchings on how industry and academia can work together to prevent and disrupt cybercrime.

Computer architecture – Professor Tim Jones on making sure we have the computing resource we need to address our major societal challenges.
