Our take

Zero Gravity unleashes the potential of talented students from low-income backgrounds by propelling them into university, work, and life. Since its launch, it's mentored over 8,000 low-income students into highly selective universities and hundreds into elite careers. Believing that talent is spread evenly, but opportunity is not, it's dedicated to changing that so students can achieve futures they once thought impossible.

It unlocks student's potential by breaking down barriers to opportunities through the power of membership. Its mentoring and masterclasses offer an inside track to reaching the best universities and careers, with technology that enables the company to achieve these goals at speed and scale.

Alongside its main initiatives, the company has established Zero Gravity Fund to provide financial support to talented students from low-income backgrounds. Since its inception, it has deployed over £1.5 million in scholarships to Zero Gravity members, further supporting their journey. Through both its programs and financial aid, Zero Gravity is committed to ensuring that every student has the opportunity to reach their full potential.

Company values

  • 🕺| Stand up straight - We say what we think and mean what we say. We’re straight talkers who hold ourselves and others to a high standard, owning our mistakes and always striving for improvement
  • 💪 | Run towards danger - We push ourselves to the limit and refuse to stand still. We embrace imposter syndrome by taking risks, failing fast, and venturing into the unknown. Because playing it safe ≠ progress
  • 🪄 | Change it up - Innovation comes from challenging convention. So we say no to the status quo and constantly seek to disrupt our own thinking. Because the best ideas are often found in the strangest of places
  • 💥 | Make it happen - We focus on creating incredible results rather than obsessing over process. There’s an inherent drive in our work: a bias toward taking action, moving fast, and delivering what matters

Diversity & Inclusion at Zero Gravity

Joe Seddon (Founder & CEO)

  • Zero Gravity exists to superpower diverse talent into top universities and careers. This mission is at the core of everything we do, and we only hire staff who live and breathe our mission.
  • We believe in real diversity rather than token gestures. We’ve built our Zero Gravity culture around empowering top talent from all backgrounds, making Zero Gravity the ultimate meritocracy.
  • We’ve developed a contextual algorithm which enables our platform to talent spot high potential talent from low-income backgrounds. We use these same techniques in our own hiring process to make sure we’re hiring from the widest possible talent pool.
  • I originally started Zero Gravity from my hometown bedroom in West Yorkshire with the last £200 of my student loan. I come from a single-parent background, went to a state school, and hired my first employee at the age of 22. My own journey has instilled in me a belief that age and background should never be a barrier to advancement!
