MinION (UK base) is to do sequencing anywhere by anyone needless to say. Bento Lab (UK base) is to do genetic experience everywhere.

UK government campaign

By the way, Victoria and Albert Museum is collaborating UK base companies including UK company of multi regional company in variety of way, seasonal events and regular exhibitions.

In 2018, UK government is promoting a campaign "The Year of Engineering" [2]. It seems that the government is fighting against the separation of the some global companies by Brexit, and trying to change the country such as Switzerland and Singapore. I saw an article that UK government people visiting Switzerland to observe the strategy on BBC news.

The Year of Engineering is a government campaign which celebrates the world and wonder of engineering.
