Toshiba’s Cambridge Research Laboratory is a world-leading industrial research centre dedicated to fostering innovation through basic and applied research in physics, engineering and computer science. Our mission is to create core technology that can be translated into future products.
Our staff are our greatest asset. We recruit the most talented researchers and allow them to work in a well-resourced, multicultural and academic environment to promote independent thought and creativity.
The laboratory collaborates openly with leading universities and small companies across Europe. We have forged a very close relationship with leading academic and young researchers at the University of Cambridge and have funded many research students and projects.
Toshiba is a world leader in the design and manufacture of advanced electronics and information and communications systems. Its origins go back to 1875 and it has a rich and long history of innovation. The Cambridge Research Laboratory is a vital part of Toshiba’s worldwide research and development network it is responsible for a number of significant world-first developments and the results of its research are already finding their way into new Toshiba products.
