SensorHut was founded in late 2013 by Tanya Hutter and Marc Stettler after they met through Cambridge iTeams. We’re based in Cambridge, UK and have strong links to the University. Our innovative chemical sensing technology is more sensitive and selective to volatile organic compounds than our competitors.
SensorHut aims to provide an innovative solution in a number of areas where more accurate measurement of volatile organic compounds is required. These applications range from monitoring of industrial processes to medical diagnostics. We are focussed on research and development and will exploit our innovations through partnerships and licensing.

‘Big difference’ ventures
Eight ventures with Cambridge Judge connections were honoured in the first Cambridge Independent Entrepreneurial Science and Technology Awards.
Double award success for Accelerate Cambridge venture and its founder. SensorHut, a venture supported by the Accelerate Cambridge programme run by the Entrepreneurship Centre at Cambridge Judge Business School, has won third prize in the energy & environment category of the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Emerging Technologies Competition 2016. The 40 shortlisted entrants to the competition pitched their ideas to a panel of experts who judged on the technology’s degree of innovation, its potential impact and the quality of the science behind it. SensorHut pitched its new sensing technology, which uses optical techniques to significantly improve the detection of chemicals, using nanotechnology to make the sensors more sensitive and more accurate. This technology can be used in a range of applications, such as detecting toxic gases and monitoring air quality. Dr Tanya Hutter and Dr Marc Stettler founded SensorHut in 2013 after they met through Cambridge iTeams while both studying at the University of Cambridge. The venture will now receive tailored business support from one of the Royal Society of Chemistry’s multinational partner companies, business training, media support, and a cash prize of £2,000. Dr Hutter has also been named a fellow of the L’Oréal-UNESCO for Women in Science programme, UK…
