Our history
In the early 2000s, when Big Data and Machine Learning were still far from being implementable in counting solutions, 4 professionals from the world of retail and video surveillance realized that counting and monitoring of visitors in commercial aereas would have been a critical factor for the development of retail. Thus they decide to found Visionarea-The People Counting Company, a vertical company specialized in People Counting. A few years later, the needs of counting, traffic monitoring and occupancy management would also prove to be of great use in other sectors such as museums, events, offices, airports and smart buildings.
Two of the founding partners, Edoardo Allorio and Cesare Fogola, now hold the positions of Managing Director and Sales Director
