Our Mission

Amplify your presence with What's On:

Revolutionise the way your business operates

Visitors can feel the pulse of your campus with our heatmap feature, allowing your clients to know at a glance the areas of highest activity and discover trending spots. But What's On: is not just about exploring — it's about active participation. Users can log in to the app and create their own posts about any of the events on offer, the power is in their hands to share and connect with others.

What's On: gives you full control over your business, extending your reach and boosting customer engagement. With a top-down view of the whole site, users can flock to hotspots without a care in the world, with no guesswork required. The benefits go both ways, as you'll have a clear view of what works and what doesn't: empowering your clients becomes your strongest analytical tool.

A case study

Empowering university students and unions

Thousands of freshers every year plunge themselves through a baptism of fire to adjust to unfamiliar surroundings and a whole new way of life. With communities of 10s of thousands of people and sprawling campuses, it is common to feel overcome by the dreaded feeling of “what the hell is going on?”. With this in mind, we have created a platform that Unions can use to display on a map every event happening on campus, that even the most inexperienced users of Google Maps will find immediately intuitive.

Our Departments

Software Development Team Portrait
Software Development Team

Client-Side: our team of intrepid developers has brought our vision to life, implementing the main app and all its interactive features.

Server-Side: these developers are masters of the dark arts, and have implemented seamless communication between the servers storing all the user information with the app at your fingertips.

Software Testing Team Portrait
Software Testing Team

Remember when that project worked perfectly the first time? Neither do we, that's why we have a team of dedicated testers who ensure that every snippet of code works as intended.

Our integration team makes sure that client and server-side software match up like bread and butter.

Documentation Team Portrait

Just like visiting your nan, boring things in life are a necessary evil. Luckily for us, we have a team dedicated to making sure our paperwork is in order, and that the t's are crossed, and the i's dotted.

Marketing Team Portrait

Whilst the rest of us sit in our dungeon crunching code, the marketing team ensures that the face of our operation is clean-shaven and ready to impress, devising strategies to enter into new markets and appeal to all walks of life.

Whilst competing with the Documentation team for the crown of “Most Boring”, the Finance department brings a dose of common sense to the team, continuously assessing our financial progress and computing the feasibility of future projects.
