About the Company:
We are an emerging start-up that is driving the disruption behind the future of buildings and cities. Our innovative software application, SmartViz (www.smart-viz.com), empowers building owners and operators with real-time analytics, intuitive data visualisations, predictive modelling, and simulations using data from smart systems and novel IoT sensors.
Our mission is to tackle the core challenges with buildings - huge energy waste, inefficient space use, and poor environments leading to health, wellbeing, and productivity issues. Our answer, SmartViz, is a first-of-a-kind AI powered analytics software that empowers building owners with outcome-driven analytics to show how they can save space, save energy and boost the user experience.
We are growing out team with exceptional talents to shape the future of buildings and cities.
