Springboard is a team of talented engineers and scientists that are driven by a passion for solving difficult technical challenges and developing successful products that help people around the world.
Springboard is a technical consultancy that develops technologies for multinational companies in a diverse range of markets including medical, fluidics and advanced consumer products. Springboard values diversity because it helps us to deliver better solutions to our clients. A key diversity issue is that women are under-represented in STEM careers and so we are working on ways to improve the balance, including our Women in Technical Consultancy Scheme. We are very excited to be sponsoring CUWES this year!
