inspiring the next generation
hey. we're verglas.

We're a new startup based in Northern Ireland, developing software solutions to add competitive edge to the classroom and promote technology and programming to the next generation of IT enthusiasts. We want to make it easier for teachers to teach and test their students, while receiving detailed feedback and analytics to evaluate their lessons.

We were founded by a group of 17-18 year old students from Northern Ireland and England, with the help of the biggest software companies in the country. We're on a mission to inspire students - giving them the same opportunities to get into the industry and make likeminded friends that we were given.

We're most well known for organizing the annual IglooCode programming competition for 13-15 year olds at Queen's University Belfast, in partnership with Kainos and Liberty IT. Our last event in Belfast welcomed over 100 aspiring programmers from 16 schools across the country.
