Our History
Launch and First Developments
uPlanner was founded in 2012 by Juan Pablo Mena and Rodrigo Hernández, who created the first system based on algorithms to optimize the use of physical infrastructure at the Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez (UAI) in Chile, where they worked as academics. After this experience, the founders partnered with Carolina Arce, Wilibaldo Bravo, and Cristian Espinoza to continue developing technology-based solutions that incorporate data science concepts such as predictive analytics and artificial intelligence.
