Company mission
Scoot's mission is to promote authentic connections to accelerate business, invigorate virtual experiences, and foster stronger company culture.
Our take
Hybrid and remote working is here to stay, but communicating out-of-office remains imperfect. Whilst there are a plethora of options, covering messaging services to video call platforms, Scoot stands out for focusing on making online meetings and events feel closer to the in-person experience, with its patented virtual meeting technology.
With the Scoot platform, users can move around virtual spaces in a way that mimics real life socialisation, even with the chance to "bump" into each other. Its audio proximity feature facilitates small group conversations, and its audience reaction feed supplies real-time responses for those presenting, increasing overall engagement.
Scoot has raised significant funds towards accelerating growth and building out its team. Already used by teams at organisations such as Adobe and Johnson & Johnson, as well as stating that it serves several Fortune 50 businesses, the company has clearly found its footing in the space and will be an interesting one to watch.

Company values
- Lead with a Love for Adventure - The road ahead is untravelled, yet it beckons us. We prepare our best and set off to make history together. Things may not always go as planned. Innovation will be required. We will reach our destination. We will make history.
- Manifest Excellence - It’s all about the results, and we do what it takes to be the best. When we see something - big or small - that doesn’t look right, we take ownership. If we can’t fix it right ourselves, we make sure someone else does.
- Build Authentic Relationships - Happiness finds its foundation in authentic relationships. Our purpose is to help everyone build stronger relationships in the workplace and beyond. While doing so, we look after our relationships and invest in them.
- Protect + Preserve Resources - Waste not. This goes for time, money, and - most importantly - the planet. Conserving is cool because it leaves more for others or for a rainy day. We keep travel to a minimum, too.
- Act with Integrity - We do the right thing when nobody's watching. We are caretakers of the gifts we have been given, including our responsibilities, our customers, and each other.
- Deliver Delightful Experiences - Hosting millions of social events is a huge responsibility, and we don’t take it lightly. Our goal is to provide a delightful experience for people to make real connections and build deeper relationships.
