We bring together the best robotics, AR/VR, AI and unplugged activities - with a focus on Project Based Learning that opens up an engaging world of physical computing, where learners experience the joy of creating.

Our kits are supported by lesson plans and videos, all mapped back to the national curriculum, in our Planning and Assessment app.

MakerClub teach future skills through hands-on making. Our kits contain everything a young inventor needs to learn how to program real-world inventions and our network of after-school club includes 3D printers and laser cutters which allows members to invent true IoT devices.

Mallzee Insights helps retailers and brands improve their gross margin through produce testing. With over 1.5m users of our apps we let companies launch new products in a real shopping environment before they make stock decisions. This approach has helped companies of all sizes improve their gross margins by between 2.8 and 6.11%. 

We already count some of the biggest retailers in the UK as our clients and since launched have raised nearly £5m. 

 In a retail market where 50.9% of products are sold at a discount it is our mission to help companies significantly improve this rate through better stock decisions whilst at the same time helping consumers find products they’ll love from a range of brands and retailers. With retail discounting a global problem we are confident the Mallzee Insights solution can change the face of retail forever. 

 

Reality 01 is pioneering a virtual-reality capture device which allows physical objects in the real world to be ported to become equivalent objects within augmented-reality (AR) and virtual-reality (VR). Their process begins by taking images captured from 3D scanners that are then reconstructed into useable 3D models on the cloud which then, in turn, are streamed to 3D headsets, tablets or other devices using Reality 01’s unique software. Their technologies have been utilized with great success by museums and galleries in the past, for example scanning Grayson Perry Ceramics for the Victoria Miro. This is an extremely promising space to grow in, as there are countless artefacts and works of art around the world available for VR scanning in heritage institutions.In the future, Reality 01 anticipates that their technologies could add great value to retail – through showcasing physical products within remote virtual environments. As such, Reality 01 have done some work with Nike, demonstrating how their technology can be used to capture and manipulate their trainers onto AR and VR platforms.

 

 

ZOA Robotics is pioneering the development of a low-cost robot platform, enabling the automation of industrial inspections using highly mobile four-legged robots. The Company’s founder, Thiago Azevedo, is a proven entrepreneur with previous experience in the robotics industry. Along with his technical team, ZOA Robotics have already created impressive initial prototypes of the product. It is anticipated that future iterations of the robots will be particularly applicable to tasks that require the movement of items around uneven and hazardous environments, such as industrial and commercial sites.  There is increasing evidence of labour shortages for low-skill workers in these sectors.  ZOA Robotics is looking to use automation to fill this commercially-attractive labour vacuum, and will initially be operating a “robotics-as-a-service” model with high gross margins.
