What we do
Managing "The Buzz" to get to Business
That something has become a buzzword doesn't mean it's "silly", or that the hype is false. The growth of A.I., and how it is now available for all businesses, is a game changer for all industries. The shift from working waterfall to agile improves development processes for most companies. Design Thinking makes sure you build stuff users need, want and enjoy using.
To turn buzzwords into business you need to have a deep understanding of what user problems you are trying to solve, what business goals you are trying to reach, and what technology you will use. In most companies one of the areas will dominate, creating a higher risk of failure. By balancing new technology, user involvement and business insights we can build truly great products.
We have an international set-up that includes Europe, Asia and the U.S., with digital resources within innovation, business development, system development and marketing. Bringing together the best of the different continents gives us a unique opportunity to bring ideas into local and global markets.

About Iris Oculus
A Passion for Innovation and Learning
We think work should be fun. Not "fuzzball table fun", or "unlimited sodas fun" - but "getting in the flow fun". What is the flow? It's when you've worked for hours only to emerge with a fresh mind. It can happen alone in front of your computer, at a workshop session, reading a book, at a seminar, or while interviewing users. The key is that you get into the flow, which allows work to become a source of excitement and energy.
The company has grown gradually from 2016 with a healthy economy and positive revenue growth year by year. Our network organization counts 4 teams in 3 continents with a total of 20 high skilled resources. This gives us the opportunity to scale our own products and start-ups, and provide even better support with digital transformation to corporate and medium sized companies.
Iris Oculus was founded by the cousins Tommy Johannessen (Oslo, Norway) and Linda Laegreid Johannessen (San Francisco, US).

What people say about Tommy:
Tommy is the rare combination of full-scale geek and great business mind. With a master in programming and semantics, he's been developing new products for 15 years. During this time he has acquired extensive project management skills, business understanding and management skills. Having a passion for learning Tommy is always on the frontline of new technologies. His business mind lets him use ready-made frameworks when available, and if not he'll "just make it myself".
