ClimaCell Opens APAC Offices, Focusing on Japanese Market

BOSTON,Feb. 11,2020 --Today ClimaCell,the weather technology company,is excited to announce the official opening of its APAC office.

With existing offices in Boston,Boulder,and Tel Aviv,the APAC office will support ClimaCell's global expansion and existing demand in the region. With the lack of physical weather stations in the region,ClimaCell's weather-of-things proprietary technology will provide businesses with AI-powered insights taken from millions of sensors. Previously unavailable in APAC,ClimaCell enables companies to automate businesses decisions and actions plans based on how historical,real time,and future weather impacts day to day operations.

Founded in Boston in 2016,ClimaCell's business intelligence engine helps businesses plan for the operational impact of future weather before it's too late. ClimaCell's customers include Uber,Delta,Ford,The U.S. Open,and Amazon Web Services.

The APAC team will be focused on developing and growing ClimaCell's business,working closely with customers and strategic partners in the region. The office will be headed by Nadav Itach,SVP & Managing Director,APAC. Nadav joins ClimaCell after almost 10 years of experience in setting up and heading business in Asia Pacific. In his last role Nadav was the Managing Director APAC for Trax Retail,a leading global retail technology company. Nadav has extensive experience in the region working in markets such as Greater China,Japan,Australia,India,Korea and SEA.

"As the weather becomes more volatile around the world and in APAC there is a growing need for a company like ClimaCell. What's most compelling about ClimaCell is the ability for executives and team leaders to make real business decisions based on future operational impact before it's too late," said Itach. "Our proprietary technology allows companies to harness MicroWeather to improve procedures and protocols based on historical,present,and future weather impact."

"When we started ClimaCell three years ago,the APAC region was an area of the world we were most excited to work with," said Shimon Elkabetz,CEO of ClimaCell. "With a growing number of operational business decisions relient on daily weather volatility,we're extremely motivated to bring our weather intelligence engine to the market. The APAC region is a thriving market for ClimaCell's technology and we're fortunate to have Nadav Itach strategically scale up our operations and offerings."
