Startup Smart@MAintenance

We are developing an innovative product called Smart@MAintenance, which focuses on the analysis and design of the system maintenance of electrical equipment. The basic idea of ​​this project comes from rich experience in the field of maintenance analysis.

Our startup project Smart@MAintenance was successfully defended in June 2019 and awarded by the expert committee in the Competition of Innovative Ideas and Startups – “Máš nápad? Prezentuj svoj startup!” (= “Do you have an idea? Present your startup!” ) This competition was announced by the Rector of the Technical University of Košice and organized by the University Science Park TECHNICOM in cooperation with the Slovak Business Agency and Saab AB.
