We caught up with Dr Julie Curran, of Scottish Equity Partners (SEP), at the EVCA Venture Capital Forum in Berlin. In this video interview, Julie describes some of the great businesses SEP has backed, like Biovex, a private biotech company developing vaccines to treat and prevent cancer, and travel search website Skyscanner (read a blog about Skyscanner here).
And she also discusses how Edinburgh is fast becoming one of Europe’s newest tech hubs.
