About Emteq Labs
Emteq Labs is the market-leader in wearable technology to monitor and translate human behaviour.
Our wearable solution provides unparalleled insights for the measurement of emotional responses, through facial muscle activity and biometric responses. Founded in 2015, Emteq has won multiple awards to develop its technology, IP and initial biometric datasets. Ongoing work is validating the health applications of its technologies in collaboration with university partners funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR i4i), Innovate UK and Horizon 2020.
The team is diverse and distributed across multiple countries, and head-quartered in Brighton, UK.
A commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion is fundamental to our core values.
Only by recognising and valuing differences and treating everyone with dignity and respect, can we truly create technology that has a positive impact on people's lives
