We drive change that matters

Learning and growing together

At Gear Up, we use technology to reshape learning and development, always focusing on what people genuinely need. Since 2017, we have been creating tools and solutions that give individuals greater control over their personal growth in the digital age. From platforms that recognise skills to innovative learning methods that promote personal development, we focus on equal opportunities, privacy, and connection. We are building a future where everyone can fully realise their potential.

Shift into action

Turn talent ON

Learning is more than what you take away from a classroom. That’s why we develop practical solutions that value all forms of learning and skills, whether acquired in school, at work, or during leisure time. Through inclusive platforms, tools for skills recognition, and innovative projects, we support personal and professional growth. We aim to empower people to utilise their unique talents and experiences in a rapidly changing world. Curious about how we achieve this? Click below to discover our real-world examples.

Unlock universal potential

Technology with impact

At Gear Up, we create practical solutions that combine technology with social engagement. Think of platforms that showcase skills, a serious game to improve financial literacy, or ways to develop skills suited to the jobs of today and tomorrow. Everything we do revolves around creating lasting impact. Our team blends expertise in software development, social design, and learning design to build and implement tools that help everyone move forward, no matter their starting point. We ensure seamless integration into existing systems and provide support for effective use, so our solutions truly make a difference.

"Talent is universal, but opportunity is not. It's our duty to bridge that gap and ensure everyone has the chance to reach their full potential."
