Our focus is on getting kids ready for a successful future. Already, 67% of new jobs in STEM are in computing, and the importance of technology in industry is only going to increase. Our award-winning coding curriculum helps to get children future-ready by not only teaching them how to code, but also developing core skills such as creativity, communication and collaboration. We use creative themes to deliver a fun and unique learning experience - making coding more engaging and accessible for children, and to help them understand the role that technology plays in science, industry, art, architecture and much more. All of our lessons include a topic and a project from one of our themes, to teach the students a little more about the world around them, and to help trigger their curiosity and imagination. Our Stem.org accredited curriculum is designed to teach a firm foundation in computer science, above and beyond what children learn in school. We give children a methodical and cumulative education that builds their skills in coding, communication, collaboration, creativity and flexibility. From 6-12 we ensure every child learns at a pace that’s right for them, in a range of coding languages, and they are rewarded with certificates at each level. Our creative themes add excitement, interest and relevance to computer science subjects to help kids engage and enjoy coding.

Space has never been at such a premium, and we live in an era where people have more belongings than ever before. Stashbee aims to reinvent the way we store stuff for the sharing economy generation. Our easy-to-use platform connects individuals & businesses who have spare space (garages, spare rooms, parking spaces, warehouses) with those who need it (private and business storage, parking, warehousing). Think of it as Airbnb for storage. For our Guests, we offer secure, vetted, local spaces at affordable prices. Meanwhile we empower our Hosts with an easy way to earn additional income. Our world-class website automates the end-to-end booking process, seamlessly processes payments, and offers a powerful and easy-to-use dashboard for Guests and Hosts to interact and manage bookings. We make the process safe and secure by running ID checks. We also provide insurance, which is powered by Guardhog and underwritten by Hiscox and is specifically designed for peer-to-peer storage, to cover peoples stored items.

Spare Snacks are on a mission to create tasty snacks that are great for people, producers and the planet. Our crunchy crisps are air-dried, not fried, and made with fresh, wonderfully wonky produce. Just because they might be oddly shaped, discoloured or blemished, doesn’t mean they can’t be delicious. Pear-fect for anytime healthy snacking, indulgent dipping or adding crunch to salads, cereal or lunch boxes. Waste Not, Want Lots! #FieldGoodSnacks

At key points in your career and life, you reach crossroads. For growth-stage founders, it might be moving from Series A to Series B, hiring at scale, taking on new investors, or deciding what comes after an exit. For senior leaders, it can mean stepping into a bigger role, reshaping your career path, or questioning whether your current direction still feels right. We help ambitious founders, C‑suite executives, and senior leaders navigate these high-stakes transitions. Coaching provides a space to pause, reflect and see things clearly, so you can make confident decisions and move forward with purpose. What makes this approach unique is the balance of pure coaching, a non-directive process that helps you find your own answers, with selective mentoring that draws on lived experience when practical insight is truly needed. This work is led by Deepak Ravindran, who scaled Oddbox from $0 to $40M ARR and has successfully transitioned across multiple industries and roles.
