Jacques Blagburn is CEO and Co-Founder of Fether Labs, a London-based deep tech spinout from Imperial College London pioneering proprietary wristband sensor technology for Human-Machine Interfacing.

Jacques studied at Imperial College London, where he developed expertise in mechanical sensors and ultrasound transducers, and gained experience at the NHS and Lice Clinics of America before co-founding Fether Labs.

Jacques specializes in the intricate design of mechanical sensors and ultrasound transducers, and his technical vision has secured four prestigious awards and grants for the company.

Fether Labs originated in a therapeutic ultrasound lab at Imperial focused on tackling Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, and Jacques has translated those deep-tech principles into a next-generation gesture-control wearable platform.

Fether Labs has raised over 450K euros in seed funding from backers including Purple Ventures, Chapter One, and the a16z Scout Fund, and is actively moving from foundational research into real-world B2B pilot applications.
