Colomba Link is named after the Italian word for pigeon, honoring the bird's historical role in sending encrypted messages. Interestingly, a South African company once used pigeons to compare data transfer speeds with broadband as a joke, and the pigeons proved to be faster.
Our inspiration comes from creating a reliable data platform where users can manage and access their data using modern responsive applications. We founded the company on 15th of February 2021 in Basel Switzerland to pursue our vision of making data sharing easier for everyone.
We were a part of two EU Horizon 2020 grants NGI DAPSI and KYKLOS 4.0 where we learned to build reliable and secure IoT applications with customizable AI models. We went to evolve our platform into a real product called Monidas , which we use as our foundation for IoT projects.
