On 4 November 2010 Prime Minister David Cameron revealed in a speech given in East London that Imperial Innovations had agreed to advise on the creation of an accelerator space for spinout companies at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park as part of the new East London Tech City hub.[4]

One notable tech spinout is London-based Breathe Battery Technologies, launched in 2019.[5] In March 2024, Volvo Cars announced its partnership with Breathe would greatly improve charging times in its future EVs.[6]
