We are part of the Founders Forum Group and are plugged into the tech ecosystem by our very nature.

We have a beautiful, shiny office with a terrace overlooking Temple Park, Big Ben*, & The Shard. In the office, the team currently offers a free corporate chair massage once a month, weekly yoga sessions, free bike servicing once a quarter, and various other events.
