Our Markets

We work with some of the world’s biggest brands and most ambitious technology start-up ventures across a wide range of markets.

From aerospace to agritech, consumer to industry, communications to healthcare, our knowledge of one sector can often be applied to another to create new breakthroughs.

We focus on our clients’ success and we are trusted as integral partners in the future of their businesses. 


Our Work

We do important, difficult, radical and impactful things that benefit society. We helped develop the world's first 24/7 wrist-worn activity monitor, wireless pacemaker and wireless patient monitor, as well as the first connected drug inhaler.

Our work led to the most densely packed cellular network in the world – orchestrating swarms of bots across highly automated warehouses. It produced the Bluetooth chip that connects your phone to your car and the latest satellite technology that lets people in remote locations across the world keep in touch. 


Our History

CC was founded in 1960 by three graduates to put the brains of Cambridge University at the disposal of industry. We were the first to establish purpose-built facilities at the Cambridge Science Park and founders of what became known as the Cambridge Phenomenon.

In the early 2000s we expanded operations with offices in the US and Asia and transformed ourselves into one of the world's most capable deep tech innovation companies. We are now part of Capgemini – one of the world’s largest technology consultancy firms.
