UK-based Gemba secures €16.5 million to expand its VR-based workforce training tool

Gemba, which is founded upon 10 years’ of expertise in executive education by Nathan Robinson (CEO) and Victor Lewis (Chairman), is taking workplace training to the meta era – coupling new developments in edtech with the power of virtual reality. The programmes and courses are accessible via a VR headset from any location at any time – which enhances the learning process, especially for globally distributed teams. Gemba is the right solution at the right time, and we are thrilled to welcome Parkway VC as partners in our joint mission to help people and organizations thrive in the next era of work.” With changes in the way we work changing approaches to teamwork and collaboration on a global scale, there is a growing need for training solutions that keep teams closely connected, aligned and developing the skills they need. The London-based firm grew out of the executive training company The Leadership Network, founded in 2013 by CEO Nathan Robinson and Chairman Victor Lewis. With its immersive platform and deep expertise in workforce training, Gemba is primed to scale and expand into multiple markets, emerging as the future-of-work training leaders for the 21st-century enterprise.” With this new investment, the company plans to push forward the development of the platform, enabling people and companies to access Gemba on a subscription basis.
