Metrikus

It has developed a software platform that gathers information from building systems and other sensors to help customers gain insight on different aspects of their built estate, including their building's environment, critical asset maintenance, usage and health. The challenge for Metrikus, and competitors like Goby, Endur and Metasys, will be in delivering these benefits in a single, effective solution across different types of commercial estate, whether office, retail, industrial or logistic.

Funding has helped Metrikus pursue its mission to digitise the entire built environment in new markets like the US, southern Europe, India, Korea and Japan, in addition to strengthening its presence within its existing core geographies. Initiatives such as the Dark January pledge underscore the company's relevance, particularly in a time of spiralling energy costs and concerns about carbon emissions, and help extend its marketing reach.
