About Ange

Ange Optimization is a Copenhagen-based software and consulting company specialized in identifying, formulating and solving optimization problems. The company was founded in 2005 and has since implemented large scale optimization solutions in the container shipping industry. As these address the highly complex core processes of our customers, we also provide customization, user training and change management consultancy.

Optimization

The increasing complexity of our world propagates a need for better tools to visualize and understand our environment. The optimization framework, or "extracting the essence of a problem and it's solution through a mathematical formulation", provides fundamental building blocks for such tools.

Understanding

Our approach to optimization is first of all anthropocentric. Human beings demonstrate a faculty to adapt to and solve problems intractable by computers, probably because they (we) understand. That is one important reason for us to focus on building tools to assist humans, not replace them.

Simplicity

We value simplicity. Complexity is often inevitable, but unnecessary complexity obfuscates the structure and eventually renders the associated problems intractable.

Flexibility

We value flexibility and adaptability. The problems we work with are likely to change over time, or perhaps it is just our perception as we gain more understanding that changes. In both cases, choosing a solution model that is adaptable on the long term is vital.
