Charlie Proctor, Head of Outreach, and Founder and
CEO of independent charity Science Creates
Outreach, discusses the importance of education and
outreach in diversifying and empowering the future of
science entrepreneurship, and shares the long-term
commitment of the charity to tackle career aspirations
in STEM.
Bringing the local community along on our journey of
scientific discovery and wonder has run through Science
Creates’ veins since the company’s first incubator
opened in 2017, when we started inviting local schools to
visit our labs and participate in workshops with our
members. In 2022, these efforts continued to be
cemented through the inception of Science Creates
Outreach — the company’s own registered charity —
dedicated to shaping the scientists and innovators
of tomorrow.
