PavegenFuture Business Centre, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom

Pavegen is the global leader in harvesting energy and analytics from footfall. Our mission is to make our technology available to all communities, empowering people for a better world. Our patented technology connects people to sustainability and smart cities, creating powerful experiences which convert footsteps into off-grid energy, rich data and rewards. We call this the internet of beings, making cities smarter with every step.

Pavegen supplies both permanent installations and experiential activations. We also power off-grid applications such as games, lighting, and environmental monitoring. With embedded Low-Power Bluetooth connectivity, we can register the footsteps of individuals via our apps. When we combine this real-time footfall data with analytics, we create powerful insights into the behaviours of people interacting with our systems.

Founded in 2009 by Laurence Kemball-Cook, Pavegen has delivered 200 projects in 30 countries, working with iconic brands including adidas, Coca-Cola, Heathrow Airport, Shell and Westfield. Our latest projects include working with Transport for London and New West End Company to create the world’s first smart street, and partnering with Google to create the world’s largest energy and data harvesting array at the Festival of Lights, Berlin. Our latest model, the V3, won the 2017 Smart Cities Interactive Innovation award at South by Southwest.
