About PIONIRS

Our company, founded in 2020, arises from an interdisciplinary team of alumni and professors of Politecnico di Milano (Italy), sharing the same passion for discovering more about the human nature.

 

Years of experience in the field of diffuse-optics, single-photon detectors, electronics, basic and applied research combined with a broad medical knowledge, in order to build PIONIRS.

Officially acknowledged as spin-off company of Politecnico di Milano and also supported by Micro Photon Devices S.r.l., a company based in Bolzano (Italy) having years of experience in single-photon detection, PIONIRS is committed to deliver to the world the next-generation devices for Time-Domain Near-infrared Spectroscopy.
