Level Four Seven exists to make it easier to run sensible, evidence-building technology pilots. We know that many corporates genuinely want to innovate, but they work under heavy risk, scrutiny, and regulation, while early-stage ventures need to work on much faster, leaner timelines. We bridge that gap by helping both sides move from promising ideas to well-designed pilots, reducing risk, and avoiding the need to restart from scratch with each new team.

What we do is fairly straightforward: we scout for new technologies, carry out pragmatic due diligence on the most promising ones, and help shape and facilitate pilots in real environments. We coordinate stakeholders, manage constraints on the ground, and keep an eye on both the technical and organisational details that could make or break the project. The focus is on real problems, realistic deployments, and learning that can genuinely inform product direction, procurement, or investment decisions.

We do this because we like working with people who are building hard things, and we’ve seen first-hand how difficult it can be to get from a clever idea to something that is trusted, deployed, and working on the ground.

We are independent of any one solution or vendor, and we mainly work in Europe with technologies typically at Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 4-7.
