UK’s hardware talent is being wasted

In the competitive world of engineering, top graduates from Imperial, Oxford, and Cambridge are facing bleak economic prospects post-graduation, with hardware engineers in London earning significantly less than their Silicon Valley counterparts. Many engineering prodigies, like Sarah, James, and Alex, find themselves underutilized in traditional engineering firms, leading to a national misallocation of human capital. European VCs are hesitant to invest in hardware startups, resulting in missed opportunities for groundbreaking innovation. However, there is a unique opportunity for ambitious UK hardware startups to leverage local talent and build the next ARM or Dyson. The time to ignite the hardware revolution in the UK is now.
