Team
Knisper–founded as Audus Technologies–was created by Marciano Ferrier, a former ENT doctor from The Netherlands. Singularly dedicated to serving hearing-impaired patients, he sought the best technology to help them. Increasingly frustrated by the lack of innovation within the hearing aid industry, he took matters into his own hands. Together with Nouri Khalass, Joshua Krosenbrink, Saladin Afoh and Joost Taverne he developed this groundbreaking technology that improves audibility and speech intelligibility of audio on any device.
