Sook is a tech-enabled enterprise that maximises the utility of empty spaces by fitting them out with a digitally-enabled canvas which anyone can put any digital content onto. It has been hailed as one of Retail Week’s 'Top 10 Global Tech Startups 2020'. Sook delivered three sites with the fourth one on Oxford Street opening soon. The company is in partnership with landlords like Grosvenor, Legal & General and Derwent London. It is also the pop-up expert for Amazon’s 'Small Business Academy'. The company has onboarded noteworthy photographer and artist David Yarrow. Sook will use the investment to bring the UK's high streets back to life in a more sustainable form.
