What Nemlia does
Nemlia GmbH is a privately held sensor-based care technology company headquartered in Heidelberg, Germany, with additional offices in Copenhagen, Denmark, and Tórshavn in the Faroe Islands. The company builds a hardware-plus-software platform that ingests data from heterogeneous IoT sensors — including motion, door, bed-exit, call-button, GPS, and air-quality sensors — and routes real-time push notifications to caregivers through the Nemlia mobile application, enabling event-driven responses such as fall prevention, dementia wandering detection, and reduced routine night-shift check rounds. The system operates without cameras or microphones, requires only a power socket rather than WLAN or network connectivity, and supports a self-service configuration layer (Nemlia Service Program / NSP) that allows care staff to adjust scenarios independently. Founded on Nordic care values, Nemlia explicitly cites in-house nursing experience among its team as a differentiator in scenario co-design.
Nemlia sells to care homes, nursing facilities, hospital geriatric wards, and municipal care operators across DACH and Nordic markets via direct enterprise field sales, supplemented by an online consultation booking flow and event-led demand generation at DMEA, ALTENPFLEGE, and Health & Rehab Copenhagen. Revenue is generated through usage-based subscription bundles that combine hardware, software, on-site implementation, training, and ongoing customer success support — explicitly avoiding large upfront capital outlays. The customer base includes government municipalities (Adelaide/Gentofte Kommune, Storvorde/Aalborg Kommune), large enterprise operators (Evangelische Heimstiftung, Diakoniewerk Martha-Maria, Alexianer GmbH, Pflegezentrum Mainterrasse), and SMB facilities (Tannenberg, Kristinehøj, Eysturoyar Røktar). The company is founder-controlled under CEO Peer Bentzen, with no disclosed funding rounds or institutional investors identified in source material; the most recent strategic moves (2024–2026) emphasize flagship German partnership expansion, Nordic office formalization, and incremental product launches such as Smart Shift Selection.
