About Spectricity
Spectricity was incorporated in 2018 as a spin-off from imec, a leading R&D center in nanoelectronics and digital technologies in Belgium. Since then, we have been developing low-cost, miniaturized multispectral sensing solutions with the mission to bring this technology into high-volume consumer and industrial devices. Our applications extend across wearables, smartphones, security, automotive, biomedical health, smart gardening, food analysis, color sensing, and smart object recognition.
We are an international team of technologists, engineers, and application experts who work together every day to build innovative solutions. Our culture is open, supportive, and strongly focused on collaboration. We believe in ownership, a hands-on mindset, and giving people the space to grow.
Our headquarters are located in Mechelen, Belgium, and we also have an office in Shanghai, China. As a fast-growing scale-up, we combine strong technological foundations with the dynamic environment of a company that is innovating and expanding globally.
