Transforming an idea into a successful business
While the original roots of our technology stretch back to 2010, it took a meeting between our Co-founders in Switzerland in 2017, for the initiation of a start-up business plan to take shape. Utilising their knowledge and strengths across aerospace, medicine and business, our founders initially registered our company in Switzerland, when Caeli Nova was formally created, before opening the UK office.
