Our home is in Switzerland, a country known for precision and quality – and it’s where we draw inspiration for our work in building precise, automated, and scalable crop intelligence solutions. This underpins our global commitment to becoming the sugarcane industry’s most trusted and reliable partner.

Our global team of dedicated scientists, technologists, and agronomists are passionate about making agriculture the solution for climate change, and our roots run deep in the rich soils of this complex and rewarding industry. Together, we have developed the sugarcane industry’s most powerful integrated technology platform for agronomic intelligence, unlocking exciting opportunities for the future of this crop – a champion for sustainability and carbon sequestration

Gamaya born as a spin-out from École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) with the idea to build the most precise agriculture diagnostic tools based on hyper-spectral imagery.

Team works to build miniature hyper-spectral cameras; establishes imagery processing platforms and analytics; conducts field trials; lands operations in Brazil.

Further development of hyper-spectral technologies; establishment of AI analytics for hyperspectral imagery; successful testing leads to first commercial products for tobacco industry.

New generations of miniature hyper-spectral cameras; new strategic collaborations with major corporate accounts (Syngenta); first drone-based analytical products for sugarcane growers.

Establishment of presence in India via strategic collaboration with Mahindra & Mahindra; new generations of hyperspectral cameras developed.

Gamaya builds the first predictive analytics products to forecast sugarcane yields for farmers and sugar mills in India.

Customer-base expansion in Brazil and India among sugarcane growers; successful completion of the Soybean Nematodes tool development; first commercial collaboration with US sugarcane growers.

Launch of new predictive analytics for sugarcane growers powered by AI based on imagery, weather and agronomic data; gaining footprint in Brazil, US and India – reaching growers who cultivate 3m ha (or 12%) of Sugarcane globally.

Continued footprint expansion; first customers in Southern Africa; continued development of next generation solutions covering not only yield improvement, but also sustainability reporting and carbon footprint related to sugarcane farming.
