Cambridge University Students’ Union (CUSU), in partnership with St James’s House, is excited to announce the digital launch of Innovation 800.

This new publication tells the story of eight centuries of innovative thinking from one of the world’s most prestigious universities.

Innovation 800 covers a range of subjects – from the impact of the University of Cambridge’s groundbreaking thinkers (from the philosopher Erasmus to the Monty Python team and beyond) to the university’s unique tutorial system, which helps students think for themselves. It also examines the rise and growth of Silicon Fen – Cambridge’s equivalent to Silicon Valley.

Featuring contributions from industry pioneers and commentators, as well as informative features, engaging insights and expert advice for students and alumni, Innovation 800 connects students, innovators, educators, recruiters and the wider world of business.

CUSU President Amatey Doku said: “As a showcase for innovation across a variety of industries and career paths, we’re thrilled to be publishing this new and valuable resource for our students.”

The launch will be supported across social media via CUSU and St James’s House platforms with the hashtag #Innovation800.

As an Ambassador of Innovation for The University of Cambridge, Graham Shapiro said: “Graham Shapiro Design (GSD®) is proud to be featured in this impressive project, which tells the creative story of the University of Cambridge and will help inspire its students to be the world’s next great innovators.”
