The Institute of Cancer Research Accelerates Research and Reduces Costs with Extreme

To keep pace with an explosion of research data, The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) in London, one of the world’s leading cancer research organizations, needed a faster, more agile, and more secure network that would empower scientists to access critical files anytime, anywhere.

“The speed is really key for the researcher. I've never met a researcher that's told me, ‘your network is too fast.’”

Extreme’s modern, fabric-based network solution now helps ICR’s researchers accelerate discovery, safeguard sensitive patient data, and improve operational efficiency. The resulting cost savings are reinvested into research — supporting advancements that ultimately aim to improve patient outcomes.

“I love the fabric, I love the flexibility (…) We've saved over £300,000 a year in WAN link costs (…) Every pound that we save (…) is a pound that we can spend instead on research.”
