  Gamaya develops high-value crop solutions that translate hyperspectral drone and satellite imagery into actionable agronomic insights using proprietary cameras and machine-learning models. The company has built IP around hyperspectral imaging, embedded cameras and AI, and partners with local agronomy experts for market access. After several years of technology development, Gamaya is moving toward commercialization of its imaging-based crop solutions. The recent financing will support commercial activities, strengthen the commercial team, and grow a local presence in two target markets. Gamaya also plans to continue investing in industrial, scalable IT infrastructure and hardware to support business needs. Financially, the company completed a Series B round totaling about €10.9 million (12 million CHF), which includes CHF4.2 million previously raised via convertible bonds. Gamaya provides industrial growers with a solution for large-scale farmland diagnostics using patented hyperspectral imaging technology, drone-based deployment and artificial intelligence. Its system includes a drone-mounted hyperspectral camera integrated with an analytical platform that automatically translates data into actionable agronomy-driven information delivered as action maps and recommendations. Information products include early alerts for disease, pests and weeds, optimum fertilizer application rates, and prediction of yield. Action maps integrate into farm management platforms and can be relayed to field machinery for treatments such as spraying or fertilizer distribution. Currently the company serves soybean, corn and sugarcane growers. The company plans to expand operations, is hiring new people, and recently raised CHF3.2M in a Series A financing.
