Animal Dynamics develops bio-inspired autonomous vehicle systems. The company was founded at the beginning of 2015 by Alex Caccia and Professor Adrian Thomas, moving into Begbroke Science Park in July 2015, taking room 15 in the CIE. Animal Dynamics chose Begbroke, as it was an effective first office and lab, which gave the company a well-supported base from which to grow.
The support of staff at Begbroke and the availability of secure facilities were a significant factor in enabling the company to concentrate on its business priorities without the distraction of running a facility. As the company grew having the capacity to expand and flexible lease conditions enabled Animal Dynamics to take additional space at Begbroke without disrupting its focus on research and development.
Fast-forward to now and Animal Dynamics is growing significantly as it moves towards full production and commercialisation of its first autonomous delivery vehicle. In early 2020 it moved its business operations to a dedicated headquarters and is now exploring additional facilities for its expanding product development and test programmes. Over the next few years, Animal Dynamics will continue to build its talented engineering and software teams as it scales its commercial operations around the world, but Begbroke will have played an instrumental role in the company’s evolution.
