Zero Gravity

Who we are

Our Mission 

Zero Gravity’s mission is to propel high-talent, low-opportunity students into top universities and careers, first in the UK, and then worldwide.

Zero Gravity 

The UK has one of the worst rates for social mobility in Europe. Zero Gravity is changing that through the power of tech, backed by ~£4m in equity investment from leading social impact investors.
 

Our platform finds talented people in low-opportunity areas and brings opportunity to them – unlocking their potential all the way from school into top universities and careers.

Zero Gravity is packed with features designed to take talent to the top – from mentoring, masterclasses, internships and scholarships to personalised career opportunities. Our members get totally free access to a digital community of over 10,000 students, all working together to make their ambitions real.

The Zero Gravity community secures top results, doubling a student’s chances of winning a top uni offer and top career role. We’ve already boosted the cumulative lifetime earnings of students from low opportunity areas by £270m, and are set to create a £1bn boost by 2025.

We build strong values within each of our members. They become highly skilled candidates who scale our mission. By powering individual outcomes, we unlock the true potential of the nation – solving one of the UK’s biggest challenges.

Talent is spread evenly, opportunity is not. Zero Gravity is changing that.

Our Culture 

Stand up straight - We say what we think and mean what we say. We’re straight talkers who hold ourselves and others to a high standard, owning our mistakes and always striving for improvement

Run towards danger - We push ourselves to the limit and refuse to stand still. We embrace imposter syndrome by taking risks, failing fast, and venturing into the unknown. Because playing it safe ≠ progress

Change it up - Innovation comes from challenging convention. So we say no to the status quo and constantly seek to disrupt our own thinking. Because the best ideas are often found in the strangest of places

Make it happen - We focus on creating incredible results rather than obsessing over process. There’s an inherent drive in our work: a bias toward taking action, moving fast, and delivering what matters
