Tendium

Every year hundreds of billions of taxpayers’ money is wasted as a result of poorly drawn up and mismanaged government contracts. All this under the pressure of strained budgets and increasing costs for public expenditure. Since 2018 Tendium has been working to fix this problem using AI to create a better and more transparent market for public procurement levelling the field for vendors as well as exposing rigged contracts and giving taxpayers greater value for money. It is a great thing to do, but also a very hard thing to accomplish. That’s why we are on the lookout for the best talent out there to join our skilled team of software and business developers.

Munin Dynamics

Every month, drones injure or kill more than 5,000 Ukrainians. Munin exists to stop that. We build point-defense systems against unmanned threats. Our first product is a hand-launched micro-missile designed to intercept small drones at close range. It is small enough to carry three in a vest and cheap enough for mass deployment. This will be the smallest and most cost-effective guided missile ever fielded. Our aim is to change the battlefield in Ukraine through very high-volume production, then deliver proven systems to NATO.

Spuddle

Spuddle is developing a Duolingo-style app for Excel to help young professionals boost their digital confidence and career readiness by turning complex skills into fun, bite-sized learning. Our secret sauce? Gamification, microlearning, and a community-driven approach that makes Excel something you actually want to practice. Across the world, more than a billion people use Excel and yet most have never been taught how to use it properly. For young professionals and recent graduates, this creates a huge barrier: they’re expected to “just know” Excel, but in reality many feel insecure, waste time on manual tasks, or miss out on opportunities because of weak digital skills. This gap affects productivity, confidence, and employability and it’s widespread across industries, especially in early career roles where Excel is a daily tool. We’re building a mobile app that makes learning Excel engaging and accessible, like Duolingo, but for spreadsheets. Instead of long, boring tutorials, users complete short, gamified exercises that fit into their everyday routines. The app adapts to their level, rewards progress, and helps them practice consistently until Excel becomes second nature. Beyond Excel, our vision is to expand into other workplace tools, becoming the go-to microlearning platform for digital skills. Spuddle started as a side project on social media. We shared quick Excel tips on Instagram and TikTok, and within six months had over 200,000 followers. The overwhelming response showed us just how many young professionals struggle with these skills and how much they crave accessible, fun learning. What began as a hobby quickly grew into a mission: to make digital skills education less intimidating and more empowering. We’re building Spuddle because we’ve lived the problem ourselves, and we believe mastering the basics should feel motivating, not overwhelming.
