Blackbird ApS is a spin-off from the consulting company emendo a/s. It all began with the frustration over the cost of installing data collection systems on filling lines at the Danish brewery Royal Unibrew. The consultants in emendo decided to develop better technology. The idea behind Blackbird is to provide products and services which will reduce wasted resources within companies and improve the way people live and work together. Products and services are developed in-house and inspired by key customers and top graduate students. The company’s vision is to positively impact the lives of 1 million people before 2020. Products are presently supported in Europe and North America.
