Overview

Founded in 2017, UBEES combines beekeeping expertise with IoT-enabled hives and agronomic analytics to embed structured pollination into commercial farming systems. Its connected beehives are fitted with sensors that track pollinator health, environmental conditions, and indicators such as crop quality, biodiversity, and carbon footprint. The resulting data powers recommendations that help farmers and agri-food brands optimise yields, enhance ecosystem resilience, and verify environmental impact. The company supports clients from programme design through on-the-ground implementation and currently operates in more than fifteen countries across five continents, serving sectors that include food, cosmetics, and energy. Future plans include deepening technological capabilities in hive-embedded sensors, expanding impact-measurement tools, and building an international network of trained farmers. With fresh capital, UBEES will intensify its presence in Europe and the United States while accelerating expansion in Latin America and Africa, key regions for pollination-dependent crops such as coffee, berries, avocados, and cocoa. The firm also intends to create additional income opportunities for smallholder farmers by scaling beekeeping practices alongside improved agronomic data access.
