Luffy AI

Imagine a future where industry, the backbone of society, is revitalised. The rising costs of labour and energy and a retiring workforce are significant cross-sector industrial challenges. Furthermore, the resources sector is transitioning to more energy efficient and autonomous processes with lower emissions, while manufacturers are driving productivity improvements enabled by increasing automation and quality.

AI enables powerful new solutions to drive the next industrial revolution. It also unlocks previously inaccessible value from equipment and processes.

Matt Carr, Luffy AI co-founder and CEO, said:

“UKI2S are the experts at early stage tech investing. They know how to spot promising ideas and technologies, and know how to nurture them through those crucial early years. They are also very good at setting their companies up with the relationships needed to grow and prosper. We’ve found UKI2S to be a very supportive, patient and fair investor, who should be at the top of the list for any up and coming UK tech entrepreneurs.”
