Frontier IP CEO talks fundraise, exits and portfolio catalysts ahead
About this episode
Frontier IP Group PLC (LSE:FIPP, FRA:8WT),CEO Neil Crabb joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the company's recent fundraising and progress across its deep technology portfolio.
Crabb said the raise will support ongoing operations, help portfolio companies hit key scale-up and commercialisation milestones, and expand the company's science centre activities in Cambridge. On the discount involved, he acknowledged challenging market conditions for listed companies seeking institutional investment, but said Frontier IP's focus remains on delivering value through portfolio growth, exits and realisations.
A major highlight was progress at 2D Photonics, which secured state aid clearance for a €211 million grant to build a facility demonstrating photonics technology for AI and defence applications. "We think it's got a genuinely world leading technology backing from tier one investors and now very substantial state support that will allow it to deliver on that potential," Crabb said.
The interview also covered Pulsiv's energy efficiency technology, encouraging animal challenge study results at The Vaccine Group, Alusid's scale-up plans, GraphEnergyTech's work replacing silver with graphene in solar panels, and Cambridge Raman Imaging's materials analysis technology.
