FOUR major international companies have moved into the Daresbury Science and Innovation Campus, near Warrington, in just three months – underlining the rapid growth of the centre in recent times.
All four boast expertise and cutting-edge developments in such diverse fields as sound chip technology, virtual engineering, medical diagnostic devices and computer software coding systems.
French firm Optis is an international leader in light simulation technology which allows designers in the automotive and aerospace industries to create and evaluate virtual versions of products at a fraction of the cost of using conventional methods.
Advanced Cluster Systems, founded in the United States, develops innovative software coding for high performance and conventional computing technologies.
Swiss technology firm Soundchip develops innovative audio systems for smartphones, MP3 players and games consoles and has relocated its research and development department to Daresbury.
Completing the quartet is Innokas Medical Oy of Finland, an international specialist contract development and manufacturing company in high-end medical technologies.
John Downes, chairman of Daresbury SIC and managing director at joint venture partner Langtree, said: “We are delighted that four international companies of such significance, all acknowledged as leading innovators within their sectors, have been attracted to the campus.
“It is further recognition of the unique blend of support and expertise offered at Daresbury SIC. It’s an environment in which technology businesses of all kinds can grow and flourish.”
