Since the early days of tinkering in Nic's garden shed, CoolBoard balance board has come a long way. Racking up successes as we progress, this shiny new website for example!

We win BizIdea Comp!...

With our plans for the future and some hard work we won the prestigious theBizIdea competition run by the University of the West of England in April, 2007, proving CoolBoard balance board is so much more than a simple but genius toy.

This has stepped the whole operation up a couple of gears, we've moved into new offices on the habourside in the WaterShed Cafe/Bar/Cinema/Office space, and into our new workshop, all mega exciting.

If you would like to know any more about the comp, please follow this link theBizIdea, or talk to us or the very helpful team at UWE - enterprise@uwe.ac.uk.

And runnerup in the Knowledge West Competition:

In October 2007, Nic entered his updated plans for CoolBoard balance board into Knowledge West's Competition.

The KW Comp is the 'grand final' of South Wests' universities' competitions. Taking the winners of the five local university competitions and putting them head to head.

Although we didn't win, we came away with the runner-up prise, yeah, and surprisingly, managed to leave the presentation having sold a CoolBoard balance board to each and every member of the panel - unheard of in Competitions!

As our success story is building, more and more people are taking note, and we're getting some press coverage too, click here to have a look...
