BridgeU

We founded BridgeU in 2014 to offer software and services for university and careers guidance to K-12 secondary schools and universities worldwide. We operate in over 140 countries. Our platform helps schools manage careers guidance programs and streamlines the university application process. It includes tools for sending documents, writing references, gaining admissions insights, smart university matching, career planning, exploring international destinations, and showcasing student results. We also partner with universities, helping them recruit students from international schools. BridgeU has raised £6.4m in venture capital. So far, we’ve sent 11.8 million documents to universities globally, and over 100,000 students use BridgeU. Counsellors access the platform about 100 times per year.

We believe that while talent is global, opportunity isn’t always. Our mission is to help international students find and explore different paths. We also provide K-12 secondary schools and universities with software to address evolving global challenges. We believe strong partnerships between universities and international K-12 schools help develop international students into global citizens.

Our core values are:

• Seek to improve
• No egos
• Passion and perseverance
• Mining for diverse perspectives

These values shape how we develop as a team, collaborate, solve problems, and approach different viewpoints.

We have between 51 and 200 employees. Our team culture values embracing change and creating opportunities for young people. We appreciate diversity and new ideas, always eager to learn and question existing norms. Empathy, sharing knowledge, and collaboration are fundamental to how we work. We communicate respectfully, strive to be creative and resilient problem-solvers, and actively look for different perspectives, even when it means challenging each other.
