About Us

HyperionDev is one of the largest providers of accelerated tech education in EMEA and one of the oldest providers of 'coding bootcamps' in the world. We work with top universities such as Imperial College London, The London School of Economics, The University of Edinburgh, and Stellenbosch University to deliver structured technical courses and bootcamps that accelerate people into fulfilling tech careers.

We have been recognised as one of the top education technology scaleups in the world and gained the financial backing of Meta (previously Facebook) which recognised us as the most socially impactful startup operating in Africa, where we initially started our work.

We are dedicated to closing the global tech skills gap and achieve this by integrating tech education with human mentorship and expert code review powered by a workforce in Southern Africa, lowering the cost of accessible education in technology. This model has been successful, reaching millions of learners a year from over 60 countries. We have partnered with government bodies such as the UK's Department for Education, which provides scholarships for students to study on our bootcamps and gain employment at companies like AstraZeneca and the NHS.

Backed by nearly 2000 investors, having raised the largest crowdfunding round for an edtech company, we are a profitable, scale-up tech business committed to making the world a more stable, safer, and fair place.

Additionally, we are home to Longdue , an independent narrative game studio within HyperionDev. Longdue develops psychologically rich, story-driven RPGs that explore complex moral worlds and human stories, inspired by games like Disco Elysium . While HyperionDev focuses on transforming education through technology, Longdue applies the same mission-driven approach to storytelling in games.
