Netsuisse - SaaS Platform of the Smart Workforce
With Barcelona as the central hub for engineering and European infrastructure, we are building an AI-native SaaS platform that unites e-mobility, connectivity, building technology and workplace in one backend. For the underlying infrastructure, we have chosen three strong suppliers: Templus Datacenter in Barcelona, the ewl Rechenzentrum Stollen and AWS.
Since the opening of our research and development centre in Barcelona in September 2025 and the presentation of our Move, Connect and Work concept in December, we have been pursuing a clear goal: a SaaS platform that supports modern, end-to-end digital business processes – for Move, Connect, Work and our partners in these areas.
What makes our platform different
That processes are more important today than individual systems, that a Smart Workforce works mobile and AI-assisted, that the interaction with IT is fundamentally changing – this is consensus. Every major platform in the world is built on these principles today. So are we.
What distinguishes our platform is what it connects:
Move, Connect and Work in one backend. Mobility (vehicles, charging stations, parking spaces), connectivity (communication for people, buildings and systems) and Work (building technology, access and workplace) typically run on separate stacks today – operated by separate providers, with separate data models. We think them together. Whoever greets an employee at the factory gate in the morning can simultaneously provide them with the right parking space, a suitable service vehicle and the communication channels for their shift – without three systems having to be manually synchronised. On a shared data model and a shared identity layer – built modular and API-first, but semantically connected – this becomes significantly simpler than between three mutually independent platforms.
Cross-company as a principle, not as an add-on. Companies cooperate in a modular way today – even within the same sector. A property company, a mobility provider and an energy supplier share access rights, charging capacities and workplaces; a hospital with a mobile care service and a logistics company share fleets, spaces and communication. If you think of this ecosystem extended by embedded finance, financial steps will also take place directly where mobility, access and work come together in the future. Most platforms are designed within-a-company. Ours is designed from the outset for sharing across company and sector boundaries – profile-based, time-controlled, automatically billed.
On these two principles – crossover between Move, Connect and Work and Cross-Company by Design – we are building our SaaS platform.
A SaaS platform needs the right foundation
A platform that supports an ecosystem of multiple industries and multiple companies cannot be locked into a single cloud. It should be built hybrid – rather than on a single pillar, be it a partner, a location or a technology. It needs European performance, global AI capabilities and geographical data sovereignty for sensitive workloads – all in parallel and intelligently orchestrated.
That is precisely why we have deliberately chosen two Netsuisse DC regions and a scaling partner layered on top:
- Netsuisse DC Region EU – Templus Datacenter in Barcelona. Our choice for European workloads. Low latencies, EU-compliant data processing and a cost profile that scales noticeably with the growth of European use cases. This covers the main share of what our platform handles day by day – while at the same time making use of the physical proximity to our engineering hub.
- Netsuisse DC Region CH – ewl Rechenzentrum Stollen Luzern. Our choice for workloads with Swiss data sovereignty. Certified to TÜVIT TSI Level 3 and ISO/IEC 27001, sustainably cooled with water from Lake Lucerne, exclusively subject to Swiss law – the right home for everything that is sensitive and must remain so.
- AWS – layered on top for scaling and AI integration. With access to massive computing power, modern ML and inference services and global availability, we keep our platform AI-capable and elastic – without having to make compromises at the two Netsuisse DC regions beneath.
Barcelona as a hub
In Barcelona we concentrate our European engineering and a substantial part of our Europe-centred infrastructure. From here we orchestrate the three suppliers into a single platform: a unif
