At Backtick, we collaborate easily with digital-first companies because we share the same mindset — fast-paced, tech-savvy, fluent in software. The further we get from that world, the harder it becomes for us — engineers with backgrounds in software, math and physics — to immediately understand the real challenges these businesses face.

That doesn’t mean the opportunities aren’t there, they are just harder to see. The problems are often obvious to those with domain expertise and the solutions are well within reach for those with the right technical tools. But it takes both sides — deep industry knowledge and sharp engineering — to connect the dots. And that’s where the real value lies.

That’s why we’re proud to introduce Lumont — a new venture focused on helping industrial companies adopt modern technology, implement automation solutions and turn data into real business value.

Led by Johan Knutsson, Lumont will be based in the Backtick office during its early stage. We’re backing them with support in company building, customer development and go-to-market strategy — giving them a strong foundation to grow from.
