FOUR advanced technology businesses have moved to Daresbury Science and Innovation Campus (DSIC).

Proveca, Immersive Forensics, iSoSec and Enhanced Hydrocarbon Technology have all established their operations at the internationally-recognised site in Cheshire.

DSIC aims to provide a platform for innovation and collaboration between hi-tech businesses, universities and research organisations.

Immersive Forensics is a provider of forensic image data management services.

Proveca is a specialist pharmaceutical company which focuses on developing innovative, technically complex, demand-driven pharmaceuticals, and iSoSec develops high-performance and secure authentication products to the identity and access management (IAM) sector.

Enhanced Hydrocarbon Technology has developed technology to improve the efficiency of internal combustion engines, particularly diesels, to deliver fuel savings and emission reductions.

John Leake, business development manager at DSIC, said: “The very cornerstone of the campus is to attract innovative, thought- leading enterprises and provide them with a platform to evolve and prosper.

“The arrival of four such groundbreaking businesses, from such diverse sectors as pharmaceuticals and forensic science, reflects our continued ability to deliver on our pledge.

“We have major ambitions for the growth of the campus, supported by the anticipated launch of Vanguard House, and we hope to see more new arrivals in the coming months.”

DSIC is a public-private joint venture between the Science and Technology Facilities Council, Langtree, North West Development Agency and Halton Borough Council.
