'''THE PROBLEM'''

There were 1.5 billion mobile workers in 2017, that figure was set to grow to 1.8 billion by 2023 but that all changed a few months ago. Almost overnight we saw the whole world adapt to a totally new way of working from home.

The thing about working from home is that you don't have to work from home, it's about working from where you feel most productive, where you feel most inspired, where you are most comfortable.

‘Work from home’ is actually ‘work from anywhere’ and this is where ARROE comes in.

'''OUR MISSION'''

ARROE was founded to give everyone the freedom to work from anywhere and to use their devices however they want without battery limitations. Like Sonos speakers, Ring doorbells or Nest thermostats, we are combining software with hardware to disrupt our market and create a new product category: Smart Charging for all your devices.

'''HOW WE ARE MONETISING OUR TECHNOLOGY'''

By selling ARROE smart charging products to the 1.5 billion mobile workers looking for remote work solutions.

We intend to licence our software to the world’s leading consumer electronics brands to help them build better battery-powered products and offer their consumers a new more integrated and seamless charging experience.

'''OUR NEXT STEPS'''

Last year we raised £455k to build our product and bring it to market.

Now we are raising a new round to market our product, build our SaaS program, and grow our team.

==Team==

Founded in 2016 we are a team of product developers, scientists, marketers and business executives working to bring innovation to the charging space that powers the products we depend on every day.
