What born electric sp. z o.o. does

Born Electric sp. z o.o. is a privately held Polish engineering company headquartered in Łódź that designs and supplies an integrated electromobility, autonomy and energy-storage technology stack. Its portfolio centers on a proprietary Battery Management System (BE BMS) with a Pack Management Unit and Cell Management Unit architecture that supports up to 16 battery modules in parallel/series without a supervising controller, together with modular batteries (BE Battery, 48V and up to 1000V/80 kWh), electric drive modules (BE Plug & Drive, BE One R electric go-kart), IoT/cloud monitoring (Data Hub, BE WEB Platform, Mobile App), and Microsoft HoloLens-based AR visualization. On top of the power stack the company has built a SCADA-based energy management system for renewable integration (BE Solar Bank) and a Level 5-capable autonomous terrain platform (PAWO), co-developed with Łukasiewicz-PIMOT for defense and surveillance use cases.

The company monetizes through direct sales of its hardware products (BE Battery, BE BMS, BE One R, Smart Light Spot, BE Solar Bank), custom engineering services — electronic/mechanical design, prototyping, CNC manufacturing via a Haas Mini Mill, and embedded/desktop/mobile/web software development — and strategic consulting in electromobility and autonomy. Its go-to-market is hybrid: a product-led storefront (website, free quote form, Facebook) for the standard product lines, layered with consultative enterprise sales for bespoke integration projects and participation in EU accelerator programs (Climate-KIC, Pilot Maker Electro Scale Up) and Polish public tenders. Primary customer segments are electric micro-mobility OEMs (e.g., Triggo), go-kart and racing track operators, energy operators and municipalities, and defense/industrial buyers of autonomous platforms. Headcount is 1-10, the company is privately held with no disclosed venture funding, and only one named enterprise customer (Triggo) appears in available sources, which constrains revenue visibility despite a broad product surface.
