Future Plans
We will have continued support from Google as we build out Threadline. We have met some fantastic experts in Artificial Intelligence during this process who are keen to remain involved and help us to build the system.
We will reach out for support in drafting the contracts for our industry codevelopment with PUMA from the Imperial College London Enterprise Lab. We will also rely on their expert advice and guidance, along with the other start up mentors that we have met throughout this process including: Sanford Dickhert; Andrew Humphries and Idan Gal-Shohet.
We have meetings upcoming with several potential integration partners including the Head of Design at Miro. This is important as we are building strong relationships that can be mutually beneficial at a later date.
Partnerships
Investors
