What3Words

what3words is a simple way to talk about precise location. We have divided the world into 3 metre squares and assigned each one a unique combination of 3 words - a what3words address. This means that anywhere in the world can be found using 3 easy-to-remember and easy-to-share dictionary words.

The free what3words app and map-site are used by millions of people, businesses, governments, charities and NGOs around the world to improve efficiencies, enhance customer experience and keep people safe. Our core technology (Public API and offline SDKs) is built into geographic information systems, car sat-navs, navigation apps and command and control software. Checkout pages accept what3words addresses for customer deliveries and hotels, travel guides and businesses provide their what3words address on contact pages and booking confirmations to help visitors find them more easily. Importantly, >80% of UK emergency services use what3words to help them locate and respond to 999 incidents.

RESORDINATE

RESORDINATE

Resordinate, founded in 2024, enables sustainability and reporting teams in large organisations to create live, actionable and auditable data on their operational waste. This means they can meet the increasingly stringent auditing requirements of sustainability linked loans and regulations such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Resordinate’s core revenue model is an automated managed service that generates then maintains a pipeline of clean, normalised waste data from across the customer enterprise. The data can be fed into third party ESG platforms or analysed through an additional licence for Resordinate’s owned analytics platform, WasteMap. Resordinate’s USP is our combination of waste industry expertise with data analytics and AI, that enables us to go beyond a single view of waste to a live, auditable data pipeline. We are building on years of experience working in the UK and internationally, building our data process and platform and making the case for a data driven approach to resources and circularity.
