Introduction

PHYSEE Technologies, founded by Willem Kesteloo and Ferdinand Grapperhaus, originated at the Delft University of Technology. The organisation received global attention for their PowerWindows that generated electricity in a transparant way. Richard Branson, Bill Clinton, Maxima and many others have come to see the first live buildings using this technology. Over time the company has successfully pivoted the technology into both a coating product and a software platform.

The coating product is spun-out into FOTONIQ Technologies which increases crop growth with 8% by enhancing natural sun light. The software platform is spun-out as Sense by PHYSEE and later merged with EDGE Next the daughter company of Edge Technologies. The company focusses on decarbonizing real esate using data and AI.
