About the founders

Martin Holmberg

The engineering background of Martin led him to start his career in tool engineering and product design. He has always had a entrepreneurial mindset which inspired him to launch two startups, MOEF A/S in 2006 and Paralenz in 2015. A diving enthusiast himself, Martin was always surprised how complicated it was to obtain good pictures of his underwater adventures without heavy and specialized equipment. He had to make it accessible to recreational divers without compromising the quality of the image. Paralenz was a success in all metrics, and additionally contributed to scientific research worldwide by sharing precious information with ocean expert labs
