From Academia to Quaisr

Before joining Quaisr, Assen was a PhD student in the energy industry. He then went on to gain valuable experience as a process engineer across various upstream assets for BP, working in different locations from Angola to the Shetlands. His passion for research and simulation drew him back into academia, where he became acquainted with the co-founders of Quaisr. Recognising a significant barrier to the adoption of high-quality research by multinational corporations, Assen joined Quaisr, driven by the vision of scaling research and bridging the gap between academia and industry.

“I want to give engineers and data scientists reliable tools that can help them solve problems we all face — sustainability, energy crises, security. Providing these tools is how we can make a difference.” — Assen B.

The Birth of Quaisr

Quaisr was born out of a real need to accelerate the adoption of groundbreaking research in multinational corporations. As researchers themselves, the founders of Quaisr understood the challenge of transforming physics-based simulations and cutting-edge AI into scalable solutions for organizations. They realised that a platform was required to facilitate the integration of research into the workflow of companies. Thus, Quaisr was established, driven by a mission to unlock the potential of physics-based simulation and empower companies with reliable tools.
