The work begins
‘When life stops, it becomes clear to a person what is really important.’
The idea behind Kamupak was born when our founder Iida's life was close to ending. When Iida suffered a severe injury as a result of a serious accident, not only everyday life changed but also the vision of where our founder should spend their time on earth.

Validating the concept
Iida gets together with our two other founders, Karri and Eero to validate wether the system would be environmentally sustainable as well as viable. Kamupak's digital deposit system is starting to take form and is tested for the first time.
