Open in Angel Intelligence

Background

Anthony Harris is a business angel based in Cambridge, United Kingdom, and an academic at the University of Cambridge, where he is a visiting academic in the Department of Computer Science and Technology and Bye-Fellow and Director of Studies in Computer Science at Emmanuel College. Before returning to higher education in 2007 he co-founded a software company specialising in high-performance imaging and printer technologies, which he left following a management buy-out; Companies House records his directorships of Software 2000 Limited and Software Imaging Limited ending in December 2007. University of Cambridge and Clare Hall pages describe him as an active business angel who has invested in around fifty companies across the Oxford and Cambridge ecosystems and identify him as a member of Cambridge Angels, where he serves on the board as treasurer. Companies House confirms he is a current director of Cambridge Angels Ltd, Cambridge Angels Group Ltd and FLIT (Cambridge) Limited, and was formerly a director of Immaterial Ltd and Growth Nation Limited. No public source seen names an individual company he has personally invested in, so no investment rows are recorded here.
