Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

But we're, of course, to accommodate...

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

Up to 5,000 people are going to need more than that.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

So we're looking at a much wider campus here that will involve more than just that building.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

So I think we'll end up with several million square feet of space by the time we're finished.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

I mean, it's a really big project.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

But we've already made progress in some domains to try and get projects and the beginnings of companies on the road to try and solve some of the big problems.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

So we're quite excited about it.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

Yeah, so the university's been terrific about this, actually, because, of course, most universities would say, well, why don't you do it inside the university and just give us the money, and it'll all be fine.

So, of course, Larry wasn't born yesterday, so I said, well, thank you very much, but I think we'll probably do this nearby.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

But the university also realized this is a really exciting opportunity for them.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

And we've got a really good relationship with them.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

We've signed an agreement with them as to who will work where.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

We've agreed not to steal a lot of their staff.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

We're going to be bringing new people into the ecosystem.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

Some of the university people will spend some time with us and some time in the university, so that will help.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

But we're also bringing quite a few new people into the setting.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

So the university has been really positive.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

And I think one of the things that's attractive to the university, and you'll be familiar with this problem in the UK, is that we're quite good.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

The discovery science here is pretty good.

Ground Truths
Sir John Bell: Transforming Life Science and Medicine's Future

And we do do startups now at scale.
