ThreadPoint | Hackney and remote AI doesn't happen by magic. But for most children, it might as well. Children use technology every day without knowing what makes it work. Behind every screen are real places, people and systems: data centres, energy, water and networks. ThreadPoint helps children and communities see that world. Through storytelling, hands-on workshops and our developing digital Learning Lab, we make the invisible side of technology visible. We've reached 350+ children through schools, libraries and community programmes, and we want to reach thousands more. We know how to create engaging learning. Now we need someone who knows how to open doors. If you're an experienced business development or partnerships professional who wants to put your skills towards something meaningful, we'd love to hear from you. What you'll help us do Connect with businesses interested in supporting education and local communities Identify funding opportunities for school and community access Build relationships with potential partners and supporters Shape compelling partnership proposals Help us create a repeatable approach to partnerships
