TIMELINE

OUR HISTORY

  • Founding fathers

    2012 - COMPANY START

    Our founders met in 2010 while working at Aarhus University. Combining expertise in assessment administration and pedagogy, they led a ministry-funded project that created DigEx, a prototype for digital exams.
     
    In 2012, they acquired the licence, hired three student developers, and evolved it into WISEflow. UNIwise launched soon after, earning Startup of the Year 2013, and began piloting WISEflow with Aarhus University and other Nordic institutions.

    2013 - CHALLENGES BEGIN TO MOUNT

    After 18 months of development, funds were nearly gone in 2013. Then our landlord filed for bankruptcy.

    With no office budget, the team moved into an abandoned building without heat or internet. That winter, we coded in hats and gloves, tethered to a single Android hotspot, and everyone agreed to cut salaries in half. Despite the cold and slow connection, no one ever lost faith in WISEflow.

    2016 - OUR FIRST SUCCESSES

    This belief was soon rewarded with contracts from Danish university colleges, business academies, and technical schools. By 2016, nearly half of Norway’s higher-education institutions were on board. As global interest in digital assessment grew, Steffen and Rasmus met with universities worldwide to explore how WISEflow could support their digital ambitions.

    2021 - EXPANSION

    By 2021, we had expanded with offices in Denmark, Norway, the UK, and Germany to provide local expertise.
     
    We partner with institutions in 14 countries and as that number grows, we remain committed to leading and supporting higher education in transforming assessment practices.

    2022 - CELEBRATING 10 YEARS OF IMPACT

    From a cross-university project at Aarhus University to supporting higher education across Europe and beyond, UNIwise has spent a decade helping institutions transform digital assessment.

    2023 - PARTNERING WITH MONTERRO FOR GROWTH

    UNIwise partnered with Nordic software investor Monterro to strengthen WISEflow, enhance customer support, and scale across Europe. This partnership equips us to deliver even greater impact for higher education while continuing our journey of innovation and expansion.
