This is accurate. There's a valley of death between 'good academic research' and 'ready for investment'. Every project at that stage is risky, and because there's not much money instututions cherry pick and become risk averse. If you wanna win the lottery, buy more tickets.

Netflix’s doc The Quilters is brilliant. At 30 mins I wish it had been longer. It follows men in a maximum-security prison who design, make and sew these intricate quilts for foster children.

Another report on how our high visa costs deter top R&D talent www.theguardian.com/science/2025...
"The UK's upfront immigration costs now vastly exceed other leading research nations, so the UK is struggling to compete.
EU countries can more easily attract talent from the EU due to free movement, and from non-EU countries due to their relatively low visa costs.
"Non-EU countries are also attractive to global research talent due to lower comparative immigration costs than the
UK."
British scientific institutions are having to spend huge sums on visa costs for cancer professionals they wish to attract and recruit.
The Francis Crick Institute, one of the world's leading biomedical research centres, is now spending more than £500,000 a year on visas for cancer scientists. Cancer Research UK institutes are spending almost £690,000 a year, up 44% from £470,000 in 2022-23.
