Priva manufactures hardware, software, and services for climate control and energy management across horticulture, indoor farming, and utility buildings. The tech stack is heavily Microsoft (Dynamics 365, Azure IoT, App Service, Functions) paired with industrial protocols (BACnet, Modbus) and .NET backend — a classic enterprise-IoT shape. Pain points surface a company in transition: moving from hardware-centric delivery toward digital services and platform economics ("climate as a service"), while wrestling with support scaling and installation complexity at global partner networks.
Priva operates across three customer segments: controlled-environment agriculture (greenhouses, vertical farms), commercial buildings (offices, hotels, hospitals), and utility infrastructure. The company develops integrated climate-control systems combining physical sensors and controllers with software for monitoring, automation, and optimization. Delivery is hybrid: direct sales in core markets (Netherlands, Germany, UK, USA, Australia, China, Mexico) alongside a partner ecosystem of 400+ installation firms across 100+ countries. With roughly 650 employees and 15 regional offices, Priva is scaling product-led initiatives (next-gen building automation controllers, partner training programs) while addressing internal operational friction (support ticket volume, installation timelines, partner onboarding).
Priva's primary stack includes Microsoft Dynamics 365, Azure (IoT Hub, Event Hub, Service Bus, Data Explorer, App Service, Functions), .NET, JavaScript, and Python. Industrial protocols like BACnet and Modbus connect hardware controllers. Data processing uses KQL and SQL; testing leverages Robot Framework.
Priva is headquartered in De Lier, Netherlands. The company maintains 15 offices across 13 countries: Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, France, UK, Scandinavia, Canada, USA, Australia, China, and Mexico, with 400+ installation partners globally.
