Multiverse (Past Sponsor)

Multiverse is a tech startup on a mission to create a diverse group of future leaders by building an outstanding alternative to university and corporate training. They offer apprenticeships to a diverse pool of young adults and those looking to reskill. Multiverse works with over 500 businesses including Unilever, Travis Perkins, ASOS, and Mars; helping them embrace digital transformation, close skills gaps and develop a diverse talent pipeline. Multiverse apprentices benefit from personalised coaching with an industry expert and are supported by a thriving community with events, socials, mentoring and leadership programmes designed to exceed the best of the university experience. Founded in the UK in 2016, Multiverse launched in the US in January 2021. In June 2022, they announced a $220 million Series D funding round co-led by StepStone Group, Lightspeed Venture Partners and General Catalyst. With a post-money valuation of $1.7 billion, the round makes the company the UK’s first EdTech unicorn. For more information, please visit www.multiverse.io
