Immersive Labs Limited

Immersive Labs Limited builds a people-centric cyber resilience platform, founded in 2017 by James Hadley and led by CEO Mark Schmitz. The company's core proposition is continuous assessment, development and demonstration of organisational cyber capability, using hands-on simulations and realistic crisis scenarios in place of one-off training. Its technical domains span cybersecurity, AI-powered training and assessment, and cyber simulation and crisis scenario platforms.

The principal product, Immersive One Platform, is an AI-powered system designed to help organisations prove and improve their human cyber readiness against evolving threats through continuous assessment, hands-on labs and crisis scenario simulations. Users have completed 4.3 million labs on the platform. Immersive was named a Leader in the 2023 Forrester Wave for Cybersecurity Skills and Training Platforms.

The company employs more than 300 people and has raised $189 million in funding. It serves more than 400 enterprise customers worldwide, including in financial services, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, and government and defence. Immersive was founded in a cargo container in Bristol, United Kingdom, which remains its headquarters; it also operates a hub in Boston, United States, and serves customers globally.

Its stated approach is people-centric, with an emphasis on building capability continuously rather than through periodic training, and on AI-powered platform development.
