Orbica is a location data intelligence consultancy that identifies and delivers on the hidden opportunities that exist within every organisation's data.
Using maps, graphics, infographics and dynamic visualisations to 3D worlds, AI and interactive tools, Orbica gives organisations real-time visibility and functional engagement.
Founder and CEO Kurt Janssen has a background as a geospatial innovator and business entrepreneur.
He identified the gap in the market, and has been working on Orbica for just over a year.
Within that time, Orbica has grown from just Kurt to 14 employees. Orbica works with businesses, local and central government and clients include Environment Canterbury, Fulton Hogan, NZTA, Waikato Regional Council and more. Their biggest success so far has been winning the thyssenkrupp Drone Analytics Challenge and People's Choice Award at the Beyond Conventions event in Germany. That led to setting up a satellite office in Berlin and Janssen describes the rapid growth as "mind-boggling."
