Our story
In 2021, Rafael, Nicolas and Parshva founded PolyPerception with the goal of using AI for the greater good and positively impacting the environment. They quickly propelled themselves into the spotlight by joining a renowned startup incubator, signing early customers and announcing a major collaboration with TOMRA Recycling in 2022. Today, PolyPerception is a thriving team with support from the region, funding partners and early customers.
Nicolas Braem
Co-founder & CEO
“Bringing change to the way we deal with waste can take years, but by using AI we have the potential to help decision makers and operators to reach new levels of transparency, efficiency and automation that hasn’t been previously possible.”
