REAL-TIME MONITORING SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS FOR ACCELERATING SUSTAINABLE GROWTH AND TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION
A real-time digital replica of a physical asset based on pre-determined mathematical models.
Our monitoring software solutions based on Digital Twins allow for predicting temperature values on critical points where it is not possible to physically measure them
OUR VISION
Our vision is to accelerate sustainable growth and technological innovation in the electrification industry
OUR HISTORY
NEWTWEN was born in 2020 as a spin-off of the University of Padua under the name of Hexadrive Engineering. In 2018, the founders Francesco and Milo started their research on Model Predictive Control and in a short time we are proud to have reached many achievements.
Today, we are a company with a team of young people supported by academic pillars with the aim of disrupting and sustaining companies towards the path of sustainable innovation.
