Anol Paisal

FOUNDER & MANAGING DIRECTOR, EMONE (THAILAND) CO.,LTD

Industry : Science

Anol founded EmOne, an R&D company in Thailand in 2015, followed by EmOne Estonia in 2021, providing IoT solutions to clients. EmOne was one of the 10 startups selected by the National Innovation Agency (NIA) and Thai Space Consortium’s ''Space Economy: Lifting Off'' program for its alternative active space debris removal satellites. Anol’s interest in electricity was sparked by an electric shock that burnt his finger. With one uncle tinkering with electronic devices and another teaching him basic computer programming, his future seemed set. Star Trek, Star Wars, and his father’s books generated images of space in his young mind. He graduated with double degrees in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and Industrial Technology in Electronic and Telecommunication Technology from KMUTNB. Between degrees, he worked at Asia Online on Statistical Machine Translation (SMT), where he learned software house processes and cross-platform computer languages. After earning a master''s in Electrical Engineering, he worked in Japan before returning to join the ZEABUS Project, whose passive sonar sector on Autonomous Underwater Vehicle received the 5th world ranking in the ROBOSUB competition. His pride and joy are his two daughters.
