Cortexia’s achievements include receiving funding from Innosuisse for a bio-waste recycling solution and leading the “Alliance for the Improvement of the Quality of Biowaste” in Switzerland. The company is now expanding its presence in Europe, with a focus on France, Germany, and the Benelux region. With strategic investments and innovative approaches, Cortexia is poised for substantial growth in sustainable urban management, addressing critical environmental challenges.
