Our business vision is to provide young people with a single platform containing all the necessary tools to explore the complete range of study, training, apprenticeship, career and work opportunities open to them.
The Selfsuite® brand icon is an eye looking out into the world and a doorway into a pupil. Together these two elements represent the service we plan to bring into the lives of university, college, apprenticeship and school students, first in the United Kingdom and then internationally in the USA, Canada, India and Europe.
The Problem
Young people (13-24) are faced with the daunting task of making informed decisions about their education journey, career opportunities and long-term employment prospects.
Technology has brought about unprecedented and accelerated rates of change to the jobs landscape and an increasing risk of mass unemployment.
Optimum education, training and development choices are vital to equip today’s youth for a future of uncertainty.
The Challenge
It is in the interests of parents, employers, governments and entire economies that young people are enabled to find education and career paths matching their aptitudes and aspirations.
The necessary computational tools are currently not available to young people to facilitate fully-informed decision-making and planning.
Selfsuite® will provide these tools, transforming life prospects for all young people no matter what their background or ambitions.
The Solution
A completely private and secure information and intelligence platform, designed explicitly around the individual user.
Leverages the same spectrum of data-streams, processing and interpretation capabilities that are widely exploited by governments, financial analysts and international commerce.
Provides access to these resources through a suite of user-friendly, gameplay-oriented applications that are powerful and fun to use, growing with the user throughout the course of their journey into young adulthood.
The Target Market
10 million students in the UK who are at present at various stages of decision-making for their future education and employment.
6.3 million in Canada
3.2 million in Australia
63.8 million in the United States of America
A potential user base of 85 million English speaking students.
Plus 400 million across Europe and 980 million globally.
The Revenue Projections
A total available UK market of over 8 million young people of whom more than 85% are or will participate in higher or further education, or in apprenticeships or some other form of training.
At 36 months from launch in the UK the target is to attract 1.5 million regular users
and a subscriber base of 600,000 students.
Revenue after 36 months:
Direct UK Revenue: £10 million per annum
Indirect UK Revenue: £2.5 million per annum
From a total available international market
in excess of 120 million young people.
International Revenue: £20 million per annum

Series B: £5m – £10m for product development and A.I. systems development

Desktop Launch Bundle
This is the Home screen of our launch bundle. After user testing the service will be launched in the UK.
The bundle contains eight core modules: Identity, Profiling, Portfolio, Vocational, University, Courses, Budgeting and Employment. The application modules are integrated in a way which provides users with structured access to a comprehensive range of information and data points to understand themselves and the the complete range of education and career opportunities available to them.
Mobile Mini-Bundle Test
In 2018 we developed and released a simplified bundle into the UK market under the brandname Prefuture™. This entry level product comprised two application modules:
University and Personality.
A test digital marketing campaign was implemented on the Instagram platform under the tag Prefuture Education.
The test served its purpose and confirmed our product development strategy to design and optimise Selfsuite for tablet, laptop, desktop and large screens environments.
Promotion Videos
We have produced four Selfsuite® Promotion Videos:
Our first, called “Epic”, is a pitch to investors that describes the nature of Selfsuite® as an investment and our long term vision for the venture. It runs for 4-minutes.
Our second video, named “Innovation”, is a compilation of documentary and presentation clips. The video runs for 12-minutes and covers various aspects of the market, technology and investment opportunities relating to Selfsuite® that we have identified.
The third promotion video “Play the Game of Your Life” is a user-oriented presentation which conveys both the brand values and the affordances of Selfsuite®.
The fourth video is called “Revolution” and is also a user-oriented presentation. The video focuses on further education, vocational learning and apprenticeship opportunities.
