As a company founded at KTH Innovation we are very excited to have KTH Holding AB on board on our bed bug mission!
Welcome SimulAir as new investment in our portfolio. The team Maja Åstrand, Simon Lilja and Sandra Vahdani is developing a device for more effiicent bed bug treatments and replacing the need for human baits.
✨ 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘂𝗴 𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀! After countless prototypes and two years of testing with our amazing customers and a brilliant bed bug researcher, we're thrilled to unveil our latest bed bug machine. This isn't just another bed bug detector. It mimics human presence to fool bed bugs, drawing them in from across the room during the entire treatment process. Our AI enhanced computer vision system identifies any captured bed bugs, instantly alterting you about them. Want to discuss our bed bug solution? Reach out—we are always happy to talk about bed bugs!
Vi är superglada över att få berätta att vi har blivit uppmärksammade i Dagens Nyheter! Vem kunde tro att "Jag grät och mådde skit" skulle bli starten på vår otroligt roliga resa med Simulair? Med hjälp av KTH Innovation, fantastiska kunder och partners kommer vi senare i år att lansera en helt ny lösning på vägglössproblemet. https://lnkd.in/dyjAzWbF
We are proud to share that we were announced as the winner of this year’s Brilliant Minds Foundation competition and excited to have Maja Åstrand presenting us at the Brilliant Minds stage together with our brand new machine launching very soon. We look forward to the opportunities ahead and can't wait to see what the future holds.
Let us present the winner of Brilliant Innovators 2024: SimulAir – Congratulations to Maja and her team! SimulAir was founded out of a very real problem: the horror of a major bed bug infestation in founder Maja's apartment. She and her team have since worked tirelessly to solve the problem and have developed a machine that attracts, captures, and identifies bed bugs. They have built and tested five prototypes, which have been verified both in the field with customers and in lab tests with a bed bug researcher. They are currently working with pest control companies and commercial property owners. The jury’s motivation: “This year's winner has demonstrated exceptional skill and creativity, presenting an idea that not only captivated our attention but also showcased remarkable innovation. The presentation was excellent, marked by clarity, enthusiasm, and a compelling narrative that highlighted the core strengths of the idea. We wish Maja and SimulAir continued success and are confident that this achievement marks the beginning of an exciting journey." We would like to send a special thanks to the jury, Bob Thomas, and all the other brilliant finalists who pitched their ideas, as well as our Brilliant Innovators partners: BMW and EQT Ventures.

If you're curious about the very origins of SimulAir and how the development of a brand-new tool against bed bugs got started, then you should read this (Swedish) article from the magazine Ingenjören. In the article, our very own Maja Åstrand talks about her encounter with bed bugs and how that experience initiated a thought in her head that she would not let go of without first exploring it.
Ett stort tack till Sveriges Allmännytta för ett väl organiserat event om att förebygga och hantera skadedjur i går! Det var både inspirerande och lärorikt att få prata med alla deltagare. Ett extra tack till Bengt Lind, Frida Bravo, och Chantelle Small!
