SheCanCode is on a mission to close the Tech Gender Gap. We help women to enter, remain, and excel in the tech industry. We help companies to attract and hire a more diverse workforce. We started as a women-in-tech blog, and over the last three years have grown our platform into an active women-in-tech support hub, providing tools and resources for women who are in careers in tech or are considering entering or transitioning into a career in tech. We now have a lively and active community of over 100,000 women worldwide and see that increasing every day. We are a small group of highly motivated and entrepreneurially minded individuals that have a shared love for celebrating women in technology. The problems we are solving are not easy, but we believe that by using innovative, creative, and collaborative approaches, and leveraging our strong network we have the potential to make a difference in the future of women in technology.

We have recently taken on a 3D modelling long-term Modelling & Simulation project focused on developing commercial-grade hard-surface vehicle assets for professional visualisation and digital production. The project involves creating highly detailed, technically accurate 3D vehicle models from reference material, with a strong focus on clean topology, accurate proportions, surface definition and production-ready geometry. Using Blender and established 3D asset-development workflows, the project encompasses the full modelling pipeline, including hard-surface modelling, UV unwrapping, material and texture development, lighting, rendering and final asset preparation. Our objective is to deliver high-quality, commercially viable 3D assets that meet professional standards for visual accuracy, technical consistency and presentation, while maintaining an efficient and scalable production workflow.

Signal Daddy Media is creating the first story-driven engagement platform that empowers organizations to reach families with purpose, not guesswork. Most nonprofits and small businesses lack modern tools to build trust, track engagement, and grow sustainably. We solve that gap by merging digital storytelling, automation, and community activation into one seamless system.

UCO Business is building an integrated education, careers and industry platform for students, graduates and early-career professionals pursuing opportunities across business and management. We bring together programme discovery, university research, career pathways, industry insights, jobs, events and professional development within a single digital ecosystem. Our platform covers major business disciplines including Management, MBA, Finance, Economics, Marketing, Business Analytics, Human Resources, Supply Chain, Law, Entrepreneurship, and Consulting & Project Management. The idea behind UCO Business is simple: education decisions should not exist separately from career decisions. Instead of showing users only a university or a course, we aim to help them understand the wider pathway — what they can study, where they can study it, what skills employers expect, which careers can follow, and how industries are evolving. We are building technology and data-driven systems that connect these different parts of the journey, while developing content, research, application services, career resources and employer-facing tools around them. Our team works across technology, data, marketing, research, content, education and business development. We operate with an early-stage mindset: small teams, high ownership, rapid learning and considerable responsibility from the outset. We value people who are curious, analytical, comfortable challenging assumptions and willing to build rather than simply follow established processes. UCO Business is being developed as a service initiative of UCO Aero (ucoaero.com) transcending its Aerospace eco system for its Business focused graduates.

High-precision brand engagement for a digital-smart world. We speak up against bland, broad-brush generalizations. We fight for solutions that adapt to the individual's needs, beliefs, behaviors and aspirations. We commit to doing this in every aspect of our work, for our clients and our clients’ consumers. We empower our employees to have no fear in expressing their own individuality.

You want to improve your home, but you have no idea how long it will take, or cost. You have no idea how to get started, whether or not you’ll need planning permission, or which contractors you need. This is where Renomate can help. Renomate draws up a rough plan, complete with time/cost estimates, a list of required contractors, and a step-by-step guide to get you started. It can even recommend qualified contractors within your area and budget.

Mercata is a secure AI sidekick for fundamental investors. We turn unstructured internal and external data into a real-time, queryable research environment so analysts and portfolio managers can move faster, ask better questions, and make more confident decisions. With Mercata, research teams ask layered, high-context questions that traverse companies, people, and time, and get traceable, source-linked answers. The system scans filings, press releases, and news in real time and surfaces what is new and factual, highlighting potential impacts on existing investment theses. It frees analysts from data mining so they can produce unique insights and apply their judgment. Teams can integrate proprietary research into Mercata’s dynamic intelligence layer, creating a unified system of record for faster recall, deeper analysis, and clear decision trails.
