King's College London

King’s College London is a comprehensive, research‑intensive university spread across central London. Through an Academic Health Science Centre with three major NHS Foundation Trusts, King’s offers co‑located facilities, access to clinicians and patient populations, and streamlined clinical‑trials pathways. As a founding partner of the Francis Crick Institute and a convener of the SC1 London Health and Life Sciences Innovation District, it links corporate R&D to discovery and translation at metropolitan scale. Research is supported by competitive funding from UKRI councils, NIHR, and major medical research charities. King’s Innovation Catalyst—via its IP & Licensing team and Industry Research Partnerships Office—supports IP, licensing, collaborations, and spinout formation.
