Neuro-diverse training platform seeks six-figure investment

This is Milk is seeking £1m of investment for its ‘neuro-diverse first’ online learning platform Neve, which aims to meet the needs of people with dyslexia, dyspraxia, attention deficit disorder or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

Based in Glasgow, the agency - founded eight years ago by Angela Prentner-Smith - has developed a reputation for its human-centred approach to training and consultancy.

Neve Learning is a cloud-based platform designed to help training providers manage and deliver learning in a more inclusive way.

Being neuro-divergent means having a brain that works differently from the average or 'neuro-typical' person. There may be differences in social preferences, ways of learning or ways of communicating.

Investors will receive a share in This is Milk, which has doubled its annual turnover for each of the last three years.

Founder and managing director Prentner-Smith said: “In today's e-learning market, learners and educators encounter drawbacks with many products.

“These range from limited face-to-face communication during training sessions and learning activities that can feel socially disconnected or lonely for some students.
