The group

A decade of ideas, ambition and getting our hands dirty.

Agile Labs began in 2015. Since then, we’ve developed software, explored e-commerce, worked with other brands and built our own businesses.

The industries have changed, but our curiosity and willingness to get involved in the work have remained constant.

The beginning

It started with an idea. Then another.

The early years of Agile Labs were spent exploring different businesses and learning how to bring ideas to life.

We developed The Cut, a SaaS product for the beauty industry. We explored luxury watch e-commerce with Keepiece and worked with other brands to establish and improve their online businesses.

These ventures took us into different markets and exposed us to different customers, technologies and commercial challenges.

Not every venture became what we’d hoped.

But the experience gave us a broader understanding of product development, digital commerce, branding, customer acquisition and the practical realities of running a business.

In 2020, G.O.A.T Offroad became another expression of that ambition, combining our experience in commerce and brand development with automotive products and engineering.

As the business grew and new opportunities emerged, we began building a corporate structure capable of supporting more than one operating company.

In 2026, Agile Labs Holdings became the parent company of the group.

Today, Agile Labs is focused on developing our existing businesses while creating the foundations for the next generation of ventures, acquisitions and long-term assets.

The approach

From the first sketch to the real thing.

We’re interested in the entire process of creating a business.

The early work might involve researching a problem, developing a product, building a prototype or establishing whether there is a customer who genuinely wants the solution.

As the idea develops, the work changes.

We build the brand, establish the operations, bring in the right people and develop the systems that allow the business to serve customers.

Once a company is operating, our attention turns to improving the product, strengthening the team and identifying opportunities to grow.

We also recognise that starting from zero isn’t always the best way forward.

Acquiring an established company can provide access to products, customers, expertise and infrastructure that would take years to build independently.


The group

Give each business room to become itself.

Agile Labs Holdings sits above the individual businesses within the group.

Our role is to provide ownership, strategic direction and the capital required to support their development.

Each business retains its own identity, customers and commercial priorities.

We don’t expect a technology marketplace to operate like an automotive workshop, or a nature retreat to operate like a media company.

Where it makes sense, businesses can share knowledge, systems, infrastructure and expertise.

But each company needs the freedom to develop around the market it serves.

At group level, our focus is on supporting existing businesses, developing new ventures, evaluating acquisitions and making decisions about where capital can create the greatest long-term value.


Leadership

Still close to the work.

Ned Michael Morris

Founder & Managing Director

Ned Michael Morris founded Agile Labs in 2015 and continues to lead the group's long-term direction.

His experience has been built through developing and operating ventures across software, e-commerce, digital consulting, brand development and automotive.

That includes ideas that worked and others that never became the businesses he'd hoped for.

In 2020, Ned founded G.O.A.T Offroad with a deliberate long-term ambition for the company. Its branding, positioning, product development and operating strategy were considered from the beginning with future scale in mind.

Today, Ned leads Agile Labs across business development, strategic investment, acquisitions and the growth of existing portfolio companies.

He remains closely involved in identifying new opportunities and shaping the products, experiences and businesses the group chooses to pursue.

Capability

We’ve learned a lot by doing the work.

Over the years, we’ve built practical experience across different industries and business models.

That experience now gives Agile Labs a broad base of capability to draw upon when developing existing businesses and exploring new opportunities.

  • Product development and engineering
  • Software and technology
  • E-commerce
  • Brand development
  • Digital marketing
  • Website development
  • Manufacturing and sourcing
  • Supply chain and inventory
  • Workshop operations
  • Wholesale and international distribution
  • Business systems and automation
  • Commercial strategy
  • Partnerships and business development
  • New venture development

Not every business requires the same expertise.

The advantage is knowing which capabilities can transfer between companies and where a new opportunity requires us to develop something entirely different.

Property & places

Big ideas need somewhere to live.

Some of our ambitions depend on owning the physical places where our businesses operate.

We intend to build a portfolio of commercial, industrial and rural property, primarily to support the businesses within Agile Labs.

For our automotive and motorsport businesses, that means exploring the ownership of workshops, flagship retail locations, engineering facilities, warehousing and specialist motorsport premises.

For destination concepts such as G.O.A.T Ranch, it means acquiring substantial rural holdings with the natural environment, location and development potential to support nature tourism, premium accommodation, hospitality, outdoor recreation and motorsport.

We want to create places that are designed around the businesses operating within them, rather than continually adapting our ambitions to someone else’s property.

Owning strategically important locations can provide greater operational control and create long-term value through the underlying assets.

Each acquisition must make sense both for the operating business and as a property investment.


What comes next

Our interests are broad. Our choices are personal.

We’re not limited to one industry, and we don’t intend to be.

Our interests extend across technology, automotive, engineering, property, media, motorsport, tourism and hospitality.

But we don’t pursue an opportunity simply because it appears commercially attractive.

We want to understand the problem, care about the customer and believe in the product, service or experience we can create.

That conviction is what makes us want to do the work.

Commercial discipline determines whether the opportunity deserves the investment required to become a business.
