"Innovation and entrepreneurship are integral to universities. Since UCL’s inception it has been unafraid to foster new, and sometimes radical, ideas. It is this spirit that has led to the many achievements of UCL’s academics, students and alumni. Entrepreneurship involves risk and UCL is unique among UK institutions in its understanding of this.”               
 
(Professor Malcolm Grant, President and Provost, UCL)
