History

Mike and Rob met whilst studying for their degrees at the University of Wales, Newport. Being mature students and having both chosen to take career changing paths, they soon developed a good working relationship and work ethic that helped them achieve their goal of a first degree honours in Computing.

After graduating both worked for a local web development company for 12 months before leaving to start Ozum.

The University of Wales, Newport

An integral part of Ozum’s success has been through the support provided by the University of Wales, Newport during the early stages of the company. Using some excellent business start-up programmes, Ozum was able to establish a firm footing in the marketplace.
