Atypify is a Community Interest Company that unlocks digital futures for neurodivergent young women and non-binary people.

We create safe, supportive spaces where they can learn in-demand tech and , build confidence, and connect with peers who truly understand their experiences. From creative coding sessions to wellbeing support and mentoring, our mission is to remove barriers to opportunity and representation in the tech industry.

How did you come up with the idea for the company?

Atypify was born from our lived experience. Our founders, who are neurodivergent themselves, knew firsthand how isolating and inaccessible many tech pathways can be. We wanted to offer an alternative that respects and centres neurodivergent ways of learning and working. What makes Atypify unique is our holistic approach: we combine technical training with and social connection, all designed in collaboration with the young people we support.

What is your advice to aspiring entrepreneurs?

Start before you feel ready. Build the thing you wish you’d had when you needed it, and invite others to shape it with you. Your community will be your greatest source of strength and learning. Also, remember to celebrate the small steps, not just the big wins.

The community is the heart of it all. Every time a young person tells us they finally feel seen and capable in a tech space, it reminds us why we exist. Seeing learners grow from writing their first lines of code to launching projects, winning awards, and helping others do the same is endlessly inspiring.

How has the company evolved over the last couple of years?

We began as a small pilot funded by local community grants and now have partnerships with local councils, the NHS, and Microsoft. We have grown from running a few workshops to delivering full-year programmes that open doors to further study, apprenticeships, and work. Our model has become stronger and clearer, blending digital skills training with wellbeing support and community connection.

What can we hope to see from Atypify in the future?

We are working to expand our reach and support over 500 young people by 2026. We plan to open more local hubs, deepen our partnerships with schools and employers, and launch an online platform so young people outside London can benefit too. Our long-term vision is to help create a tech industry where neurodivergent young women and non-binary people thrive and lead.
