In 2017, Dr. Jörg Wurzer founded Hallo Welt Systeme UG at the Remscheid site in Germany, which later became Volla Systeme GmbH. In order to be and remain independent, the entrepreneur relied on his own capital and crowd funding. After almost 3 years of research & development and a successful Kickstarter campaign, the first Volla Phone was launched in 2020. In the meantime, thousands of smartphones have been sold in over 55 countries around the world.
The independence from investors not only allows consistent and long-term privacy protection, but also completely new ways: away from the focus on apps and cloud dependency, towards the focus on simplicity and independence from the cloud.
