Impressed that Opus received private equity funding, the judges also were impressed by Opus’s focus on D&I, which sees the company provide training, support and employment opportunities for people from underrepresented backgrounds through technology.

The training cohorts are made up of 48% female, 17% LGBTQIA+, 63% BAME, 76% career changers and 67% from non-STEM backgrounds.
