At Cambridge Tech Week 2023, an independent panel awarded InferSens the Innovation Alley Award. InferSens is an edgeAI deep tech company focussed on transforming sensor technology. Based in Cambridge, InferSens brings sophisticated deep learning models to extremely low-power sensors, opening a raft of new data-rich sensor applications that were previously hard or even impossible to address.

Raspberry Pi’s Eben Upton says “Cambridge Tech Week will shine a spotlight on some of the key technology issues, both nationally and regionally, including those around semiconductors and infrastructure. In addition to the benefits of the tech ecosystem coming together, I’m particularly excited to see the early-stage and start-up businesses who will be demonstrating their cutting-edge innovations on CTW’s Innovation Alley.”
Innovation Alley will showcase early-stage and start-up companies who are developing cutting edge solutions in areas such as AI/ML, Medtech, immersive technologies and tech supporting sustainable solutions.
All the participating companies have been judged by an independent panel on the following criteria: originality of the innovation and potential commercial, economic or societal impact
