Artys

It all began on a very rainy day. (Spoiler alert: its not romantic, but you may like it). Rain is cool, rain is uncool. Well, thats a tough topic. Some may bring up the romantic argument: Yay, its snuggle time on the couch with your significant other in front of the TV!. Right? Not. Fact: depending on the rainfall intensity, satellite TV signal get... s weaker and weaker. And what if you have no significant other next to you and all you wanted was your cold beer and your long awaited soccer match on the pay-TV? At least you can still have your beer. Fair. Well, weve all been there. Seriously, weve been on that couch. We had no match to watch, no significant other in that very moment, not even a beer to drink (yeah, we know). But we started pondering seriously about this satellite signal issue. This is how Smart Rainfall System was born. Jokes aside, our pondering took us pretty far. We founded our startup, Artys, in 2014, after a fruitful cooperation with Darts Engineering and the deparments DITEN and DICCA of the University of Genoa, and as a spin-off of the university. Our real time, HD rainfall and risk monitoring system is our companys first milestone. We have a concrete idea of what kind of reality you experience when a flood is going on. The reason we were sitting on that couch is that we felt the duty to join our cross-disciplinary skills in order to develop a functional, relevant and truly innovative hydrogeological monitoring solution. We did it. But theres so much more we are working on. Our company is here to find, more in general, pertinent and highly technological solutions for environmental monitoring. We have the vision to it. No matter if its on or off that couch. Now let us introduce ourselves: He is co-founder and President of Artys, in charge of R&D.
