We built our first cyber escape room in spring 2023 - a (s)crappy little prototype that came in a briefcase. The goal was simple... make people actually engage with cyber security by letting them experience it.
That first escape room turned heads. Then it turned into a business. Then it went global.
Today, we design and deliver physical, digital and hybrid experiences that help organisations around the world engage their teams, change behaviour, and build a genuine security culture.
We're not about ticking boxes or long ass lectures. We're about stories, laughter, mistakes, and "oh shit!" moments that people actually remember.
we're professionals. honest, guv.
We take cyber security seriously... but not ourselves.
Every event, every escape room, every game is built with obsessive attention to detail... and a fair bit of laughing, swearing, and "what just happened?!" moments behind the scenes.
These are the outtakes they told us not to post. Because yes, we're professional... just not in a boring way.
Amy started The Cyber Escape Room Co. with a simple belief: cyber training doesn't need to be boring.
With a background in sales and marketing in cyber companies (and a frankly hedonistic love for living life to the fullest), she realised she could use those skills to teach people about cyber in a way that's actually fun... the kind of fun that sticks, sparks conversation, and gets people shouting clues across a room.
Amy is unapologetically outgoing, allergic to mediocrity, and deeply committed to shaking up an industry that desperately needs it. She challenges the status quo on purpose, and let's be honest, because she physically can't help herself.
After years in corporate roles, she discovered the ultimate truth... she couldn't hack working for someone else. So she built her own business.
Today, she leads a global brand spanning the UK, US, and Australia, designing immersive, high-energy cyber experiences that replace yawns with "holy shit, that was awesome!"
When she's not building escape rooms, you'll find her speaking at conferences, pushing creative boundaries, and living life with the same enthusiasm she brings to every game she designs.
