members from the UK headquarters.
Within the next two years, the
goal is to bring over 75 jobs

an American operation similar
in size and scope to its current
European operations –
a facility that offers a diverse
range of intellectual and career
opportunities for both engineers
and scientists. Andrew Diston,
Managing Director, will be overseeing
its US operations.
Dr.

of Cambridge Consultants, is
enthusiastic about its global
expansion strategies, "More
than a third of our revenue
originates in the United States
marketplace. We firmly believe
that our expertise and geographic
diversity combined with the
vibrant biotech and life sciences
industries in the United States
will create new and varied opportunities
that will enrich our people
and expand our business. Cambridge
Consultants has an excellent
track record in creating new
and innovative products and
technologies for companies and
sees the United States marketplace
as a vehicle to continue on
our dual paths of technological
excellence and business success."
Cambridge
Consultants will bring its culture
for innovation and business
creation to Boston. Throughout
its history, the entrepreneurial
staff in Cambridge, UK has been
at the forefront of technology,
developing world beating products
for its clients and creating
over 20 spin-off companies to
fuel the technological growth
of Cambridge, UK. It specializes
in the development of disruptive
and highly innovative products
ranging from fertility aids
to tea bags and from ink-jet
printing to anti-terrorist through-wall
imaging.
The
new office will focus initially
on the medical device technology
marketplace. As the company’s
operations continue to grow,
there will be plans to open
a second base on the West Coast
to cover biotech and wireless
technology developments, other
areas that leverage Cambridge
Consultants expertise.
