The journey
continues.
Innovation and new possibilities ahead. Conquering Horizons is building a British mobility company around a product its founder needed and could not buy.
A different kind of future.
Omni began as a 2015 brief for one device with the specifications to make its founder independent, where multiple wheelchairs had not. It was engineered with the AMRC at the University of Sheffield, refined by Supacat Group and brought to manufacture with GSD Technologies.
Along the way it earned the Institution of Engineering Designers' Alex Moulton Award, was compared with the best mobility devices in the world at the Tokyo Paralympic Games, and passed its rolling road, drop, deceleration and crash tests.
Now, at last, the time has come to offer users the true meaning of freedom and independence, and to find the partners who will take Omni further.
