Our take
Magnetic Rock was founded as an incubator with the goal of building ground-breaking new digital products. Its leadership team and founders are the same people behind Spinning Fox & Helical Levity and their first product, Tomohawk, was acquired within 18 months.
The product Spinning Fox helps businesses solve efficiency problems through the use of technology and design led development. This business approach helps tackle complex business issues and apply creative solutions behind the scenes to streamline business processes. Similarly, Helical Levity designs and develops gamified platforms to help educate the new generation of cyber security experts.
Looking forward, Magnetic Rock is looking to grow its team in order to tackle its next wave of ambitious product ideas
