Hello, let us introduce you to Alex & Rémy (our founders), just like you, they started to be interested in blockchain for financial reasons! We must not lie to ourselves, in recent years, there has been no shortage of opportunities on blockchain projects 😙
Alex having a large network in Brussels (but also easy contact with people) and Rémy, founder of a scale up in the IOT (connected objects), it is quite naturally that they turned together to the web3 HELIUM project to get started.
Together they quickly deployed about twenty antennas in Brussels (see photos) in private homes and companies, on a balcony or directly at the top of a skyscraper: o
They were able to follow the Helium project from its inception and integrate each stage of development. They also wondered about several other projects like WeatherXM, Geodnet, Deeper Network, Match X foundation, etc.
But the project on which they have advanced together is PlanetWatch! This project allows the acquisition of outdoor & indoor pollution data using professional sensors. In this context, our two founders have both developed the network (externally from PlanetWatch) on a large scale in Brussels but also helped to establish collaborations with cities and local authorities for the marketing of data.
After prospecting several & professionals, these actors showed interest not only for air pollution cities, but also for reliable and affordable data on traffic in cities. This is when the 2BLOX project was born! Why not offer, based on a similar business model/infrastructure, traffic data?
After several months of investigation and expert advice, they came to the conclusion that there was no similar solution on the market, but in addition that the demand for this type of data was enormous and constantly increasing. !
Our two founders were then looking for the most specialized profiles and with whom they already had professional experience in the past. The dream team was then created and the adventure began! to be continued …
