Our interests span Digital Media Technologies, EdTech, Retail and Data Analytics. IDEALondon presents DC Thomson with the opportunity to engage with a new generation of entrepreneurs as part of our broader investment activities.

IDEALondon is the fulfilment of the dream of Rohan Silva, David Cameron’s former special advisor on Tech City, that right in the heart of the emerging cluster there would be a major, world-class university. Through IDEALondon, UCL now contributes that presence. Managed by UCL Advances, the university’s centre for entrepreneurship, IDEALondon is the base for the university’s flagship programme of small business support, including UCL DECIDE, the university’s user-experience and user-testing facility, available to all IDEALondon residents.
