Software Category: Developing Advanced software 

About the Company: Led by Theo Saville, CEO, and co-founder, CloudNC develops advanced software, developed and tested in its aerospace-accredited facility (AS9100D), that simplifies and improves the process of precision machining, delivering greater speed and reliability with less waste than current processes. A user can upload a 3D model of any part and the software autonomously determines the tools needed, and how they will be used and drafts the code to tell a CNC machine how to make it. This software assistance allows factories to be more efficient while upskilling the workforce since more junior employees can operate the machines.
