| Zzish | Zzish are EdTech's most passionate pioneers; on a mission to transform the use of apps in the classroom through a data driven technology platform that solves key pain points for developers and teachers. Their platform helps developers create, distribute and monetise and helps teachers discover, use and buy, curriculum mapped education appsthat have a real impact on student learning. At the heart of their platform are their real-time teacher dashboards, a "virtual teaching assistant" that gives teachers instant insight into student strengths and weaknesses using any app.More than 500,000 teachers (70% in the USA) from over 170 different countries have signed up to use Zzish already. With their first paying schools in the UK, US, Holland and Israel and Ministries of Education around the world starting to recommend their products, Zzish is now scaling up to become a global technology leader providing the key data and intelligence layer underpinning the new generation of education applications.Zzish has won numerous awards over the last few years. EdSurge ranked Quizalize as the "No.1 new app for schools" in 2015 and Zzish was selected as one of the "Future 30" at the Bett Show (Europe's leading EdTech trade show) and one of the "EdTech 20" at EdTechXEurope (Europe's leading EdTech investor summit). Moreover the Zzish Teacher Dashboards was the runner up for Teach Secondary's "Technology Innovation of the Year" and a finalist for selection in the Education Resource Awards. | $589K | Seed | Sep 01, 2015 |  |

| Mainframe | Mainframe — A decentralized network for censorship-resistant message routing.The need for a privacy and security focused communications ecosystem has never been higher. Distrust and centralized powers abound, with third parties monopolizing users’ information and governments imposing surveillance tactics on citizens inside and outside theirborders. Each takes advantage of the same decades-old architecture on which the entire Internet is built. The Mainframe network is the messaging layer for the new web. This goes beyond human-to-human messaging. There are many use-cases and applications for reliably, privately, and securely routing data packets through the Mainframe peer-to-peer network. Mainframe is resistant to censorship, surveillance, and disruption. With the exception of a catastrophic asteroid event or an aggressive alien invasion, the Mainframe network is simply unstoppable. We build with five fundamental principles as our guide. | $200K | Pre-Seed | Oct 28, 2014 |  |
| Code Kingdoms | Code Kingdoms is an online platform for kids to learn to code.

We built our code editor so that kids can ‘mod’ existinggames, build their own and program hardware using the best technology available. | $400K | Seed | May 31, 2014 |  |
