About usNo fancy buzzwords, just practical advice and services that make sense for your business.

Founded in 2017

Lumico was founded in 2017, but the seeds were sown earlier in 2004, when co-founders Stephen Briney and Steve Kennington began their careers as graduate software developers at Xyratex (acquired by Seagate in 2014), working on large-scale robotic test systems for the hard drive industry.

Our journey started with a focus on developing mobile apps under the slogan 'apps for cash'. Thankfully, over the years, we’ve had the privilege of working with great clients and applying our expertise across many sectors.

Today, we’re a team of ten (and growing) software, electrical, and mechanical engineers, working on a range of projects for startups and enterprises. These include telematics, big data, cloud, IoT product development, and automated production line systems. And yes, we still make mobile apps.

Our values are super simple

Client first

Our clients’ are our greatest advocates, and when we actively listen and respond to what they need we create a partnership that’s all about trust and mutual growth.

Do great work

Our job is to deliver the best work possible. While challenges and constraints are inevitable, we overcome them by being adaptable and open-minded, sharing ideas, and exploring new technologies and approaches.

Practicality meets creativity

Our approach combines practicality and creativity, drawing on our diverse industry experience and openness to new technologies to do more than just solve problems. Being 100% in-house allows us to manage every aspect of a project and deliver it to the highest standards, with minimal fuss.

We take the time to really get to know our clients and understand their unique challenges, enabling us to provide clear, effective advice and tackle complex business problems that drive real growth.
