Paradox Engineering stems from the desire of going beyond what
is generally meant as impossible, or just too complicated to be
designed and deployed – to make it come true
We think like a paradox and engineer intelligent technology solutions to unleash opportunities for people and communities through digital transformation. We are MinebeaMitsumi’s IoT Excellence Center for a fully networked IoT society.
Since 2015 we are part of the Japanese Group MinebeaMitsumi, leading global provider of
Electro Mechanics Solutions™ with a notable history and track record of technology excellence.

Established in 2005 and headquartered in Switzerland, we were born as a telecommunication company, serving the market of industrial data transportation. We initially developed a one-stop-shop business model providing virtual networks to connect any customer industrial operation site and enable remote and condition monitoring programs. The same model was further developed and extended to urban applications, transforming Paradox Engineering into a pioneering technology provider in the smart city’s ecosystem.
