Dutch Startup Bird Control Group Achieves Global Success with Laser Technology
Bird Control Group, a Dutch startup, uses innovative laser technology to revolutionize bird deterrence globally, enhancing agricultural yield and safety. The company has grown from 10 to 50 employees.
Innovative Technology and Global Reach
Bird Control Group’s laser technology has set new standards in bird deterrence. By emitting a harmless laser light that feels like a physical threat to birds, it effectively prevents them from causing damage to crops and other properties. This non-lethal, animal-friendly solution is being utilized worldwide, reflecting the company’s rapid growth and strong global presence.
Focus on High-Value Crops in Australia
One of the key markets for Bird Control Group is Australia, where the company focuses on protecting high-value crops such as cherries, berries, and other fruits. The AVIX Autonomic Mark II, an automated laser bird repellent, has proven particularly beneficial for growers like Juro Orchard in Western Australia, helping to reduce costs and prevent bird damage.
From Startup to Scaleup
Since its inception as part of the inaugural 2019 cohort at evokeAG, Bird Control Group has transitioned from a startup to a scaleup, connecting with investors and corporates worldwide. This journey highlights the company’s commitment to innovation and entrepreneurship in solving real-world problems with technology. The upcoming evokeAG. 2025 event in Brisbane, Queensland, will provide further opportunities for showcasing their advancements and exploring new markets.
Future Plans and Market Expansion
Looking ahead, Bird Control Group plans to develop new product features and explore additional markets such as Japan. Collaborations with industry groups for trials are also on the horizon, emphasizing the company’s dedication to continuous improvement and adaptation. With a growing team and a robust portfolio of solutions, Bird Control Group is well-positioned to maintain its trajectory of success.
