Everything started in Luise’s parlour
Just like so many young people, our company founder Paul Lunow is his family’s own personal system administrator; particularly for his great-aunty Luise. However, no matter how hard he tried, Luise could not cope with gaining access to the internet. She found the constantly changing user prompts far too challenging. There are approx. 13 million people in Germany in a similar situation. They feel left behind by technological progress.
From idea to product
Paul met Florian Schindler through a technology fund in 2012. Three years later, they both founded the Nepos GmbH. Their vision: a future, in which everyone can participate. Out of the strong belief that older people are really not too slow for the digital world, but rather that existing user interfaces and technology are simply not sufficiently optimised for them, the first universal interface was born.
