We are Continuum Industries. A seed-stage startup developing tools for engineers to create better infrastructure. Our tools help to design infrastructure such as railways, roads, pipelines or power lines. The final value of our product is that it helps to get clean water from its source to your hot shower, packets of data from a data centre to your computer and electricity from a wind farm to your light bulb. We were founded in June 2018 with initial angel funding from Skyscanner's Gareth Williams. Since then, we have closed our first big enterprise customers and we're now gearing up to openly launch our product to the world, but we can't cope with the work on our own.
