Zürich, Switzerland – July 10, 2019 – The management agency of the Swiss Technology Fund confirms that the Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN) granted a loan guarantee to Arviem.
The Technology Fund, created by the federal government to promote innovative technologies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, offers loan guarantees for innovative companies to get the necessary financing in place.
Simone Riedel Riley, General Manager of the Technology Fund: “The largest share of greenhouse gas emissions – just under a third – comes from traffic and transportation. We are therefore very pleased to be able to support Arviem, a company that shows great innovation potential with its real-time cargo tracking and monitoring service and may significantly reduce CO2 emissions.”
