Our Story

What's in a Name? •

Eudemo is short for ‘Eudemonia’ - an Ancient Greek term meaning ‘the happiness and flourishing found through purposeful action’.

We believe this perfectly captures our spirit: to help both individuals and wider society flourish, by applying new tools to tackle the challenges that matter most head on.

Meet the Founder •

Eudemo was founded by Rory Preston in 2022, with the aim of raising the tide of innovation around the biggest challenges facing our society - sometimes referred to as the 'Big F*@king Problems'.

Rory graduated from the University of Cambridge with a double first in Economics, before moving onto a Master's at the University of Edinburgh, in Operations Research & Statistics (Distinction).

Rory has worked across both data & analytics consulting, and software startups - with roles at JMAN Group, Count and Limber.

A rare commodity even in his expert field.

"All clients were left with a deep admiration of how Rory worked, with their expectations typically far exceeded and problems solved.

He is a pleasure to work with and with a unique combination of technical skills and personal capabilities that make him a rare commodity even in the expert field he operates in. I look forward to chances to work together again in the future.”

Jamie Garner
Workforce Analytics & Strategy Consultant

One of the most capable individuals I've ever worked with.

"Rory designed Limber's Job Matching Engine (JME) which is the cornerstone of the product offering & led the off-shore implementation team to deliver it.

After Limber launched, Rory used data from the Limber platform & 3rd party market data to build a data model that validated and improved Limber's growth strategy. This work was pivotal to securing early stage Private Equity investment."
