Our history

ThingWave AB was born in February 2016 as a natural step after winning the IPSO Challenge 2015 in December 2015 at San Jose, US. ThingWave was started as a spin-off company from Luleå University of Technology, with more than 15 years of experience with connected embedded devices by Jens Eliasson and Pablo Puñal Pereira.

In early 2020 a subsidiary was established in Melbourne (Australia) in order to meet the growth and interest from the industry and mining companies.

Together the founders have more than 25 years of experience in IoT and both carrying a PhD in Industrial Electronics. Our CEO Jens’ reputation and achievements as a former Associate Professor at EISLAB (from Luleå University of Technology, Sweden) are well known in many parts of the world.
