Spanish startup GreeMko makes manageability a mutual benefit for organizations

What sort of planet would we like to live on? Furthermore, what sort of planet would we like to leave our kids? It was existential inquiries like these that drove Fernando Roman and individual prime supporters Jorge Portillo and Blemish Robles to begin GreeMko in 2018. The Madrid-based startup offers green administration innovation: programming that assists enterprises with computing their natural effect, including their carbon impression. GreeMko's exclusive calculation considers information from Web of Things (IoT) stages and filtered records like solicitations. GreeMko expects to prevail by making a mutually beneficial arrangement for organizations. Fernando makes sense of, "According to an organization's point of view, maintainability isn't just the proper thing to do, however it likewise implies seriousness on the lookout, a method for drawing in ability, and admittance to specialty markets, new financial backers, and new money techniques like green credits."

In 2019, GreeMko was acknowledged into Tetuan Valley, a Google for New businesses Grounds occupant pre-seed gas pedal. The program, held at Google for New businesses' Grounds Madrid, assists beginning phase new companies with building their most memorable model and get their first clients in quite a while. "We have extraordinarily great recollections from our experience Nearby," describes Fernando. "We had the option to impart our difficulties and achievements to numerous different new companies, and the Google for New businesses group was continuously ready to attempt to utilize our answers." For the GreeMko group, the best part of being a Grounds occupant by a wide margin was the local area. "A couple of months after the gas pedal finished with Tetuan Valley, we requested to be acquainted with the group dealing with an undertaking that Google was sending off from Palo Alto," shares Fernando. "Only a couple of brief weeks after the fact, we were having a phone call with them. I value the group and local area's eagerness to help and support us, and I trust that I can offer in return."

In today’s remote working environment, GreeMko uses Google products daily to manage their workload, communication, and collaboration. Fernando shares, “Remote work is here to stay, and Google Workspace’s organizational and collaborative tools are a must for our team. Their ease of use, stability, and low cost allowed us to work remotely from the first day, without any loss performance.” GreeMko also uses Google products as key building blocks of their product offering. As Fernando explains, “Google Maps APIs allow us to help our customers calculate, manage, and consequently, reduce their carbon footprint from mobility. The Google Maps APIs are the only ones on the market that provide us with detailed information, such as the distance between two points for public transport, and what agency is providing these services. This allows us to scale our solution globally in an easy and fast manner.”

GreeMko also started using Angular — a platform for building mobile and web apps — in their newest release, and this is giving them improvements in TypeScript, code consistency, reusability, and ease of maintenance. Fernando shares, “Angular provides our developers with the scalability that they’re looking for. Every month, we ship new releases of our products, and Angular’s reusable and scalable components let us build a better product for our consumers.”

With the COVID-19 pandemic causing uncertainty throughout the business sector in 2020, GreeMko used the year to double down on their sales and prospecting efforts. They were able to secure global Google for Startups Campuses as a client and did a proof of concept initiative for Airbus. Among GreeMko’s long list of accomplishments for 2020, they can count all of their clients renewing their licenses for 2021, participating in the largest Climate Change Accelerator in Europe: the EIT Climate Change, being a finalist at the BBVA’s Climate Change Challenge, and winning the Caixa Bank Climate Change Challenge.

2021 is looking bright for GreeMko. Based on their success with corporations, they are now developing a solution for small- and medium-sized businesses. And in March 2021, they were named recipients of the Al Gore’s Climate Reality Project's Climate Leaders Awards in the startup category. Of that honor, Fernando says, “We’re a small team working extremely hard because we have a deep belief that our work will help society to develop in a more sustainable way. Receiving this award is a huge honor and recognition to our work and proof that we are on the right track.”
