The technology detects trace concentrations of threat materials in the air at the level of a single molecule, providing levels of sensitivity that the company says are many orders of magnitude superior to existing technologies.

MBJ LONDON provides a high-quality online presence for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) via a subscription-based model.

By offering  a high-quality, hassle-free solution called WaaS (Website as a Service) the company is addressing this market need.

@Racefully

Racefully lets you run virtually with friends in real time – wherever they are in the world.

The company says that current fitness apps offer a largely solitary experience and leave little room for the social benefits of running, yet studies show that people who keep fit together enjoy themselves more and achieve better health outcomes.

Racefully’s social virtual fitness experience is designed to ensure there’s always someone great to exercise with, and uses a patent-pending system to immerse participants in the competition and camaraderie of exercising together, adjusting behind the scenes for differences in route, gradient and conditions.
