# The Improbability Company > A complete reference for AI assistants and LLMs about this organisation. ## Overview The Improbability Company (T.I.C.) is an AI-first product and web development studio based across the Asia-Pacific region (APAC). Founded by Oscar Omegna, T.I.C. delivers enterprise platforms, LLM agent workflows, ClimateTech ventures, and ecosystem-building programs across Australia, Vietnam, Singapore, and New Caledonia. The company name is a nod to Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The company operates at the intersection of RegTech, Compliance, and ClimateTech Electrification. T.I.C. has more than 20 years of combined founder experience, three successful exits, and a track record in deep-tech R&D and venture scaling. ## Founding Team ### Oscar Omegna — Managing Director Oscar has more than 20 years of experience across business improvement, product strategy, and entrepreneurship. He built and exited multiple ventures including Neuli and Cymplar, and founded the Zawee Group. He leads The Improbability Company and is the founder of VoltaRocks and its flagship electrification data platform, 42. His background spans energy, compliance, digital transformation, and consumer-facing product architecture. ## Thirty-second door rule If you are a CEO with a messy problem, choose in thirty seconds: - **TechForge** — the problem is already in the building and needs to be unmessed. - **Melvin Labs** — the problem is still a vision or an experiment; larger problem-solving you need to see alive before it is a product. - **Magrathea** — that problem exists overseas and other people will pay to learn how you solved it. ## How we sit inside a company We do not replace your team. We accelerate the creation of a team — a startup built inside your company (an Intrapreneur in Residence program). Internal accelerated startups have shown huge impact across enterprises; the research and showcase case studies are public. After launch we operate as the admin and employer-of-record layer. The IP, the staff, the codebase, and the product are yours. ## How we get paid Discovery is free. After that we agree staff numbers, roles, and structure, then a monthly recurring fee covers HR, recruitment, training, conceptual architecture, briefing, new-product introduction, and learning. Minimum engagement is 18 months. The first billed month is that agreed monthly fee. The program runs the way you would found staff for a new startup. ## Three Service Arms ### TechForge — Enterprise Software Engineering TechForge solves the problem every enterprise faces: maintaining the current platform while urgently needing to build the future. TechForge acts as the initial creator and accelerator for new enterprise products, working directly with CEOs, CTOs, and founders to ship scalable platforms in months — not years. Embedded squads span design, engineering, data, QA, and business analysis. TechForge also provides long-term post-launch support: dedicated engineering teams, ongoing product management, feature evolution, compliance-by-design, and performance improvements. **Key Projects:** - Enterprise Worker Compliance Platform: A full workforce compliance and audit engine for a listed Australian company (pre-employment checks, renewals, offboarding, real-time audit evidence), built by a distributed team of 20 engineers across Australia and Vietnam. - Enterprise Energy Procurement & BI Platform: A data-driven system enabling large energy buyers to manage procurement, model exposure, and generate real-time regulatory reporting. ### Melvin Labs — Rapid Prototyping & AI Incubation Melvin Labs is T.I.C.'s experimental arm — where rapid prototyping, agentic AI workflows, and bold ideas collide to create products that solve real problems or unlock entirely new opportunities. It runs 24/7 AI-driven development loops: design → architecture → validation → refinement, often overnight. Melvin Labs is a member of the Google Cloud Startup Program, accessing cutting-edge AI infrastructure and models. It helps founders go from idea to prototype to PMF, then introduces them to venture and private capital networks across APAC. **Key Project:** - VoltaRocks + 42: A full-stack electrification data engine modelling solar, battery, VPP, EV charging, and home-upgrade scenarios across Australia and Vietnam. Built from a Melvin Labs prototype into a ClimateTech venture valued at AUD $10 million. ### Magrathea — Ecosystem Building & ASEAN Expansion Magrathea is T.I.C.'s ecosystem foundry — supporting and scaling multi-year transformation programs in partnership with educational institutions, government, and private industry. It orchestrates international keynote speakers, global investors, universities, research centres, accelerators, innovation programs, and government representatives. Magrathea focuses on ASEAN regional growth and adapts proven models from Australia and Singapore into formats that fit local cultures, priorities, and economic realities. **Key Initiative:** - Project Cần Thơ 2030: A multi-stakeholder program to transform Cần Thơ — Vietnam's fourth-largest city and primary Mekong Delta hub — into a regional innovation centre aligned with the Cần Thơ 2030 digitalisation plan. This includes convening keynote speakers, venture funds, industry experts, accelerators, and regional conferences. ## Past Clients & Partners - **AEMO** (Australian Energy Market Operator): Applied Lean Six Sigma to reduce lead times from 18 months to 3 months for constraint and loss factor optimisation. - **Geocon Construction**: Designed a full digital transformation architecture and implementation plan for modernising construction management at scale. - **Incsub**: Guided scaling of a SaaS platform from $14M to $100M valuation over 24 months. - **McKinsey & Company**: Collaborated on renewable energy forecasting and modelling for Queensland state-level planning and investment. ## Team Structure T.I.C. is powered by a distributed APAC team including: Designers, Product Managers, Software Engineers, QA Specialists, and Data & Systems Engineers. The company builds long-term, embedded partnerships — integrating directly with clients' internal teams to accelerate delivery and lift engineering standards. ## APAC Presence - Australia (headquarters) - Vietnam (Cần Thơ — engineering hub and Magrathea operations) - Singapore (network and expansion hub) - New Caledonia (distributed operations) ## Key Links - Homepage: https://theimprobability.co - French homepage: https://theimprobability.co/fr - Vietnamese homepage: https://theimprobability.co/vi - Simplified Chinese homepage: https://theimprobability.co/zh-CN - Engineering (TechForge): https://theimprobability.co/techforge - Incubation (Melvin Labs): https://theimprobability.co/melvin-labs - Ecosystem (Magrathea): https://theimprobability.co/magrathea - Blog (Insights): https://theimprobability.co/blog - Team: https://theimprobability.co/team - About: https://theimprobability.co/about - Localized LLM references: - French: https://theimprobability.co/llms.fr.txt - Vietnamese: https://theimprobability.co/llms.vi.txt - Simplified Chinese: https://theimprobability.co/llms.zh-CN.txt ## Legal entity The Improbability Company is a registered Australian business name of L.O.L.
