About EMRAYS
Ever since the team got together at EMRAYS we’ve been united by one purpose, to reinforce positive behaviour in the world. Our business idea is to help companies, institutions and governments to put people’s emotions at the heart of business.
To help to reinforce positive behavior in the world, we first need to understand the world. We’ve already analyzed over 2 billion emotional reactions to find the patterns that influence our lives. At EMRAYS we call this Calculating Emotions.
We come out of academia and business. Our founders bring global experience in their respective fields.
We are headquartered in the Netherlands and have an office in London and New York.
