2013 UCL Business Award
The UCL Business Award seeks to mark the achievements of UCL academics who have delivered notable commercial projects. Previous award winner (2012), Prof David Selwwod was selected for his numerous engagements around his drug discovery work with UCL Business over the years and his involvement in three start-up companies.
Last year UCL Business presented for the first time their ‘One-to-Watch’ award. This was given to Professor Neal Skipper and Dr Chris Howard for their project ‘Separation and Purification of Carbon Nanotubes’.
Based in the London Centre for Nanotechnology (LCN) the One to Watch winners have worked closely with UCL Business over the past few years to help commercialise their novel process to separate and purify carbon nanotubes. Their process could help unlock the huge commercial potential of carbon nanotubes by providing a means to separate semiconducting tubes from metallic.
UCL Business PLC is a leading technology transfer company, which supports and commercialises research and innovations arising from UCL, one of the UK's leading research-led universities.UCLB has a successful track record and strong reputation for identifying and protecting promising new technologies and innovations from UCL academics.

UCLB supports UCL’s Grand Challenges of increasing UCL’s positive impact on and contribution to Global Health, Sustainable Cities, Intercultural Interaction and Human Wellbeing.
UCL Business is pleased to continue the realisation of research through its work and by recognising projects which have done so through the 2013 UCL Business Award.
