We are proud to present our newest venture by DNA: Wattinen!

Wattinen is an intelligent heating service that enables housing companies to save up to 30% on the energy used in heating. While saving money Wattinen also reduces climate emissions and enables an always suitable and comfortable temperature at home.

Few reasons Avanto is happy to be part of this venture:
🌍 Wattinen embodies our core values in building a meaningful business serving a greater purpose
🌏 This venture is a perfect example of forming a founding team from external and internal innovators
🌎 Corporate-startup collaboration: Wattinen is built on the collaboration of DNA and Fourdeg providing the AI to this service

Live smarter, do good for the people and the planet!💚

Lämmitysenergian säätelypalvelun on määrä vähentää energiankulutusta ja siten ilmastopäästöjä.
