Show Notes

D’Startup WEO an hir Grënnerinne Charlotte Wirion an Imeshi Weerasinghe benotze Satellitte Biller fir méi präzis Informatiounen iwwert eis Ëmwelt eraus ze fannen an och mat Artificial Intelligence (AI) ze analyséiere. D‘Zil ass et dass hir Clients méi qualitativ Informatiounen hunn fir besser Entscheedungen ze huele wat Qualitéit vum Buedem, Verhënnerung vun Naturkatastrophe mee och d’Entwécklung vun eiser Vegetatioun betrëfft, an dat iwwerall an der Welt. 

Des Weideren ass WEO vun 2 Frae lancéiert ginn, wat leider nach ëmmer seelen ass an der Startup Welt. D’Charlotte erkläert eis wisou dat de Fall ass, wat eventuell Hürden si mee och wat een dogéint maache ka fir méi Frae fir de Entrepreneurship an Technology Beräich ze motivéiere. 

De #StartupCorner ass e #Podast op Lëtzebuergesch iwwert Startups an Innovatioun zu Lëtzebuerg, presentéiert vum House of Startups Luxembourg, mat der Ënnerstëtzung vun der Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce an dem #SCRIPT.

Startup WEO and its co-founders Charlotte Wirion and Imeshi Weerasinghe use satellite imagery to source more accurate information about our environment and to analyze it with artificial intelligence (AI). The aim is to provide their clients with qualitative data enabling better decisions regarding soil quality, prevention of natural disasters but also about the development of vegetation worlwide. WEO was launched by two women, which is unfortunately still too rare in the startup world. Charlotte explains the reasons, the hurdles to overcome but also what can be done to motivate more women to try their luck in the entrepreneurship and technology sector. 

The ‘Startup Corner’ is a monthly podcast in Luxembourgish about startups and innovation in Luxembourg, presented by the House of Startups powered by the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce and supported by the SCRIPT.
