Founded at the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto in 2012, CDL now operates five sites in Canada, three in the United States, six in Europe, and one in Australia.
CDL-San Sebastian will join the global CDL Quantum program, and launch a CDL AI stream focused on natural language processing and multilingual models to complement the arrival of the IBM System Two quantum computer and strengthen Gipuzkoa’s role as a growing hub for deep tech commercialization in Europe.
CDL-London will be hosted by the Imperial Institute for Deep Tech Entrepreneurship, an Imperial-wide initiative led by the Imperial Business School, working closely with the Imperial Enterprise Lab to deliver the program. Rio Tinto, a leading mining and materials company, is the founding partner of CDL-London, enabling an expansion of the CDL Minerals program.
