About Us
Shoestring is based on rigorous research from the University of Cambridge's Institute for Manufacturing. Our research developed processes and solutions to open up the benefits of digitalisation to small- and medium-sized companies who might be overwhelmed by the complexities and cost of commercial digital offerings.
The research project is now transitioning to a commercial initiative, and we invite companies to help shape this new phase by becoming an Early Adopter.
Shoestring Early Adopters work in collaboration with Shoestring, they are among the first to trial the starter solution package, receive direct support from the Shoestring technical team, and help Shoestring improve and develop the starter solution offering.
