Who we are
Founder story
At Buddywise, we make workplaces safer. This singular goal inspired Buddywise co-founders Lamin Faye and Yigit Arin to build the world’s first fully automated safety monitoring platform, which today helps customers in heavy industry prevent workplace injuries and fatalities.
As seasoned technology professionals who shared a passion for innovation, they saw an opportunity to usher in a new era of workplace safety in heavy industry – one that enables data-driven decisions and continuous improvements to safety practices and monitoring.

Lamin, CEO of Buddywise, has served in various roles across Europe such as VP of Safety and Director of Digitalization at Swedish energy giant, Vattenfall. In 2018, Lamin studied computer vision at Singularity University and was captivated by advances in the field made possible by breakthroughs in deep learning.
Lamin believed computer vision, applied to workplace safety, could dramatically improve safety and productivity by taking safety monitoring beyond the era of paper and pens. At the time, no service used computer vision solely to improve and automate workplace safety monitoring.
Today the Buddywise team have a shared mission to build on the company’s growing traction in the marketplace and bring Buddywise to every workplace it can help make safer. The team is driven by the founding vision that started the Buddywise journey: seeing customers use Buddywise insights to take concrete actions in the real world that make an impact.
