A new generation of highly profitable Escape Rooms, created with unique technology Inspired by cinemas, attraction parcs and the popularity of escape rooms, we created a unique experience, optimized for profitability. The founding team is composed of engineers and artists who have been working together for many years. We opened our pilot center in Lausanne, Switzerland, in September 2018, after more than two years of development. It was an immediate success, the center becoming profitable very rapidly. Two Swiss franchises quickly followed, and new centres are in preparation in Switzerland, France and the US.

Urturn (“your turn”) is an innovative social network for rich self-expression using the latest web technologies with its main audience in US/UK.

Every day we translated inspiring topics into memorable engagements, enabling people to express their social identity, resulting in an extremely high user engagement ratio. Urturn has been pioneering disrupting fandom engagements for the biggest artists in the planet such as David Bowie, Pharrell Williams, Alicia Keys, One Direction, Miley Cyrus, Britney Spears generating hundreds of millions of impressions across the web. The service was enhanced with a disruptive advertising business model with metrics way above the advertising industry and first-class customers (e.g. Pepsi, Kellogg’s, Pizza Hut, Disney, Fox).

Imagine an interactive flip chart, on which you can easily drag and drop web components such as Google maps and YouTube videos, import documents such as PowerPoint presentation and PDF, write and draw with a pen. This is the vision that drives the company. Uniboard started as a research project at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland. The original idea was to offer professors a new tool to move away from both the blackboard and PowerPoint, so as to foster interactivity with the audience while using electronic presentations. The activity was spun-off in 2008 into a new startup, Mnemis SA, based in Lausanne, Switzerland.
