Vision AI software company Neurala launched a European subsidiary, Neruala Europe, based in Trieste, Italy. Neurala Europe is backed by Friulia SpA, an investment firm based in Trieste, and AddValue, an investment firm based in Milan. As part of the launch, the company will hire sales, software engineering, and research personnel in Italy to help meet the growing demand for AI in manufacturing and visual inspections.

Neurala Europe will be managed by Neurala co-founder Massimiliano Versace and by Daniel Glasser, Neruala’s vice president of client operations, who will join the board of Neurala Europe and oversee day-to-day operations. Neurala is currently working with global strategic partners, including IMA Group, Antares Vision, FLIR Systems, and IHI Logistics and Machinery, as well as a number of European system integrators.
