Founded in 2012, the company has grown to more than 30 people and operates from two nearby properties in Sheffield city centre, as well as a third inEssen,Germany, which opened in 2017.[2] In 2017 they were named the second fastest growing manufacturing company in the UK by theUniversity of Sheffield.[3]

Through an online store, and at community events, they are a re-seller for a number of electronics and education brands, as well as manufacturing a range of electronics and associated products.
