VST Enterprises, Ltd. was a cybertechnology company based in Manchester and New York founded by Louis-James Davis. In 2017 the company was valued at £234 million based on inbound investments.

It launched a subsidiary in Pakistan in June 2020 with Shaz Sulaman and Ajaz Sulaman. The VCode is like a circular QR Code.

It had a contract with the Zimbabwe government to use its technology to tackle illegal mining, counterfeiting and issues with border control, as well as introducing identity cards and tax collection for informal businesses. Louis-James Davis was appointed Science & Technology Ambassador for the country by President Emerson Mnangagwa at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland.

In June 2020 Richard Caborn, the former sports minister, reported that the firm was involved in designing the V-Health Passport being considered by ministers and the Premier League to see if the digital passport would allow fans to start coming back to football matches.

The company went into administration in 2022 after its parent company Davis Co. Holdings, owned by Louis-James Davis withdrew funding.

In September 2022, the assets of the company were bought by a Davis Co. Holdings subsidiary.
