Tiger Solutions Ltd was founded in 2009 by Chris Mortimer, a then MSc student at Warwick Business School. Chris explains what motivated him to set up the company:

“I saw applications for analytical tools and techniques commonplace in the corporate and academic worlds in other parts of the economy”, Chris explains, “for example, in education, small-to-medium-sized enterprises and the third sector.”

In the early days the company engaged with small companies in the vicinity of Warwick Business School, completing one project with a local entertainment venue that used crowd simulation modelling to formulate a new, cost-effective staffing strategy.

The company subsequently built a client base in the education sector in the Midlands, with a focus on schools and colleges in Nottinghamshire. By 2011 the company’s offering to the education sector had broadened to encompass practitioner training, supported by new staff, and a new brand. In the changing educational landscape, Tiger Solutions has helped educational institutions access and interpret analytical tools in a practical manner to support decision-making.

“It is more than fulfilling an entrepreneurial ambition”, Chris believes, “It is about redistributing analytical capabilities with a social and ethical focus.”
