About El-Watch
OUR STORY
A fairytale of an entrepreneurial story - from the childhood bedroom to the world market with IoT technology
The young friends Tor Øystein and Ole had a vision of using sensors to look after both people and technical equipment, giving them a safer, easier workday and making sure to give their tools a longer lifespan. But they were ahead of their time. The technology was not ready for their ideas. So how could they solve the challenges then?
