Tony Hickson is the chief business officer of Cancer Research UK, where he leads the Commercial Partnerships team responsible for commercialisation. He joins us on the podcast to discuss taking a very long view of shifting culture towards more entrepreneurialism and the importance of transparency around ethnic diversity and inclusion.  He also discusses the changes he has seen and the lessons he has learned over the course of his career to date, which included turning Imperial Innovations into a public company and eventually seeing it acquired by its peer IP Group. Plus, Hickson shares why has loved sitting on the boards of PraxisAuril, Cambridge Enterprise and the Francis Crick Institute, and tells us why Apollo Therapeutics is the spinout that is among the most memorable for him.
