D-RisQ Ltd is proud to announce its selection as one of the pioneering companies joining Mobilise — a prestigious innovation accelerator funded by the UK Government through the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) and the Centre for Connected and Automated Vehicles. The programme is delivered by the Advanced Propulsion Centre UK (APC) in partnership with Zenzic, and supports the next generation of high-growth UK companies driving forward clean, connected mobility.
Through Mobilise, D-RisQ will receive tailored mentorship, strategic support, and grant funding of up to £180,000 to accelerate the commercialisation of its Proof Tool Suite — a unique collection of automated software verification tools for embedded systems in safety-critical environments such as automotive, aerospace, MedTech, and space.
Nick Tudor, CEO and co-founder of D-RisQ. “After going through a highly competitive selection process for Mobilise, it is great to be recognised as a company that can have a role in the development of cleaner and automated mobility. Based on the use of our high integrity software verification technologies, we look forward to increasing our partners’ productivity and helping them to get their products to market faster and more cost effectively whilst also meeting regulatory requirements for software.”
Head of Product at the Advanced Propulsion Centre UK, Josh Denne said: “We are delighted to be working with as part of our business accelerator, D-RisQ, supporting them to strengthen their business and help the global efforts to decarbonise transport. The technology developed by companies like D-RisQ could play a crucial role in the automotive industry’s net-zero carbon future. We are excited to support them on their growth journey ensuring their innovative technology becomes commercially viable.”
Mobilise brings together ambitious SMEs and spinouts developing early-stage zero-emission technologies and connected and automated mobility (CAM) solutions. Delivered in two phases over 18 months, the programme combines commercialisation strategy, technical validation, investment readiness, and leadership development. Participants benefit from access to expert mentors, investor networks, and CAM Testbed UK — world-class facilities for trialling and validating mobility technologies.
D-RisQ’s Proof Tool Suite offers an end-to-end solution for verifying embedded software — from early-stage requirements through to executable code — all underpinned by formal methods. This means software intended for critical vehicle systems like battery management, autonomous decision-making, and real-time control can be developed with mathematically proven reliability and compliance to safety standards such as ISO 26262.
As D-RisQ continues to scale its impact, the support and visibility offered through Mobilise is expected to play a pivotal role in its journey toward becoming a leader in embedded software assurance.
