Lumi: Our Purpose

Vision

Equitably develop a new wave of young talent across the world to solve the biggest challenges of today/tomorrow.

Backdrop

Most valuable companies of our generation are built around tech, design and entrepreneurship

Mission

Build a collaborative platform to upskill over a million 10-25-year-olds in tech, design and entrepreneurship while having fun.

Lumi collaborates with young people and institutions globally

• We run digital, scalable cohort-based Quests

• Supported by an AI-augmented online learning platform

• Participants produce novel tech-enabled innovations to global or business problems

• And develop Future of Work skills* such as entrepreneurship, design and AI-readiness...

Lumi was conceptualised by a father & son duo in 2020

*based on OECD, WEF and Pearson reports and Lumi's professional insights

Quests follow a design-thinking journey and focus on solving real-world problems, collaboratively

• 15 online facilitated sessions + structured offline work on our platform

• Topics linked to UNSDGs (e.g. Sustainable Cities, Climate Change, Inequality, Health) or chosen by our corporate partner (e.g. Cybersecurity, Risk)

• Each Quest comprises ten participants, a trained facilitator + Subject Matter Experts (in select sessions)

Quest Output (1/2): A unique & personalised Future Skills Passport for each participant

Proprietary credential that tracks and showcases Quest outcomes, including key skills in:

• Entrepreneurship

Customer Feedback and Reviews

Today it's become really difficult to differentiate between the thousands of graduates who apply to us. They have great degrees but they're missing real-world skills. Lumi is the way to help us pick them out.

There is a gap in the market to develop digital skills in young people from an early age. The Passport can be a new age credential for many young people from anywhere.

- Senior Partner, Big Four Accounting Firm

I really enjoyed observing how ideas in both apprentice teams evolved session after session. A project like this shows that co-operation centered around design thinking is simply very productive.

It is immensely encouraging that young people can come up with such well thought out solutions to complex global problems when given an opportunity through Lumi.

-Headmaster, Leading British School

Lumi is shifting the needle from assessment to skills and promoting peer-based learning. It's strength lies in augmenting rather trying to upend education

We’re proud to be the first corporate partner to work with Lumi– an organisation giving opportunity for youth to be front and centre in tackling the most important global issues.

Initial EY Apprentice Programme - Feedback

We're going to take this forward and present it to top management!

I love both solutions. How can we commercialise these great ideas?

I'm really impressed that both solutions focus on commercial and societal impact.

Two teams of Apprentices pitched their solutions to Senior Leaders across Financial Services, Cyber & EMEA Business Units of EY
