We’re always looking for partners to invest in a better future and bring ideas to life.
Why we invest
UniServices amplifies the growth of research ideas to address the world's most challenging problems. We’re not just interested in making widgets. We’re working to change the world for the better through the smart and ethical application of research. When we back a company, we’re backing people, visions and values as well as solid business plans that fill a market niche.
