Where You At ("WYA") uses indoor mapping and offline bluetooth positioning to allow users to precisely locate and contact friends in spaces without connection. Initially launched to target women’s safety and sexual assault at night, the app is a tool that brings together social and safety to make nightlife spaces navigable. Using unique Bluetooth technology and building on exciting growth in the indoor mapping space, we’re working with venue owners, police and council groups and students to build a meaningful social and safety tool. 1st place winner of “Places of the Future” at International Geospatial Awards (Ordnance Survey). Top 5 finalist amongst 200 start-ups at The Company Of Entrepreneurs EASI Competition.
