NEWCASTLE, England, Aug. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Aircards, the multi-award-winning global immersive studio, has secured a £3.0 million growth capital investment from Foresight Group. The funding will power the international expansion of Aircards' multi-faceted offering, bringing its blend of immersive content, interactive displays and analytics platform to brands and consumers worldwide.
Since launching in 2020, Aircards has built a global reputation in the delivery of premium immersive campaigns for enterprise brands including Nike, L'Oréal, Diageo, Unilever, Louis Vuitton and Red Bull. The studio's work spans AR, VR, mixed reality, CGI and AI-driven experiences with activations live in major cities, flagship retail, stadiums and cultural events worldwide.
This investment will accelerate:
- Enhanced experiential capability: Expanding in-house fabrication to design and build the physical environments that bring immersive experiences into the real world. From LED tunnels and interactive pop-ups to AR-enabled magic mirrors and immersive shared spaces, Aircards can now deliver fully integrated, digital-plus-physical activations from concept to deployment, faster, with more creative control and built for scale.
- Invisionary: Aircards' next-generation interactive display product line, led by the LUX-75™, an AI and AR-powered touchscreen DOOH display built for high-traffic spaces such as retail, airports, events and malls. The LUX-75™ combines immersive media, real-time analytics, gamified experiences, virtual try-ons and frictionless commerce, turning public screens into powerful engagement and revenue engines.
- Metalitix: Aircards' proprietary spatial analytics platform, giving enterprise clients deep-level insight into how audiences explore and interact within 3D, AR and mixed reality environments. From heatmaps to gaze tracking and session playback, Metalitix turns engagement into measurable, actionable data.
To support this next phase, Euan Jarvie, former CEO of Dentsu UK&I and ex-president of EMEA IRI, joins Aircards as Executive Chair, bringing deep expertise in global media, technology, and scaling creative businesses.
