Founded in 2016 by Jean-Christophe Mifsud, Ellona is an innovative company based in Toulouse, with a dedicated team of 25 passionate professionals. Since our inception, we have successfully raised over 10 million euros across multiple funding rounds, enhancing our capacity to develop and scale our cutting-edge solutions. These investments have been crucial in driving our rapid growth and expanding our operations to over 30 countries worldwide. We take great pride in our strong team spirit and our ability to face challenges with enthusiasm and determination, while leveraging the support of our financial partners to achieve our ambitious goals.

The journey so far

It all began in 1993 with the founding of my first company. I had the privilege of developing the world’s first electronic noses, tongues, and eyes, securing 24 groundbreaking patents. Recognizing the immense potential of sensor fusion and modulation to advance health and environmental protection, I embarked on a new journey by establishing Ellona.

At Ellona, our vision is to deliver cutting-edge environmental intelligence, tailored to enhance the safety of individuals, businesses, and communities. By harnessing state-of-the-art IoT (Internet of Things) and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, we have crafted solutions that provide real-time quantification and analysis of a wide array of environmental parameters. Our innovations not only detect pollutants and potential hazards but also automatically initiate remediation actions to create safer and healthier environments.

We take pride in offering a comprehensive suite of groundbreaking solutions to organizations and communities around the globe. Choosing Ellona means partnering with a leader in technological and environmental innovation, dedicated to transforming ecological challenges into opportunities for safer and more sustainable environments. Our solutions are designed to reduce costs, optimize processes, and ensure regulatory compliance, all while positively impacting public health and protecting our planet.

Join us in our mission. Together, we can make a meaningful difference.
