Outreach and partnerships

We give significant time and resources to a small number of partners and student teams. Most are local to us or connected to people in our team, and each is an institution or team whose work we believe in.

Partnership

Imperial College Boat Club

Imperial College Boat Club runs a high-performance rowing programme. We work with its athletes and coaches as an engineering partner: we design and make the hardware, the crews use it in training, and the data they collect shapes the next version.

  • Printed mounts for sensors and data-collection equipment on the boats
  • Composite components for racing hulls
  • Custom fittings for the boathouse workspace

Outreach

GreenPower at St Paul's Girls' School

GreenPower is a UK education charity in which school teams design, build and race their own electric cars. We sponsor and support the team at St Paul's Girls' School in London, helping students take a design from the classroom to a car that has to finish a race.

  • Brackets designed with topology optimisation
  • Aerodynamic body panels
  • FDM and SLA parts, with design-for-manufacture advice before anything is printed

Outreach

FIRST Robotics

FIRST Robotics teams design, build and program a competition robot in a short build season. We support teams through that season with parts their school workshop cannot make, and advice on which designs will hold up in competition.

  • Carbon-fibre-reinforced intakes
  • Lightweight structural mounts
  • Turnaround that fits inside the build season

Lead a student or university team?

Tell us what you are building, when your season runs and where you need help. We take on a small number of teams so that each one gets proper support.
