## A Message to Beekeepers from Beewise CEO, Saar Safra

Dear Beewise Community,

With 2024 behind us, we’re well under way with our 2025 plans. The last 12 months have been a period of remarkable growth for Beewise. Highlights include partnering with leading agribusinesses and exciting findings from researchers studying our impact on bee health.

I want to acknowledge that none of this success would have been possible without your support. Additionally, I want to emphasize my belief that our growth is also validation of a broader truth about the future of beekeeping: while experienced beekeepers will always be a crucial part of providing bees with quality care, a real-time, distributed, robotic solution will become increasingly essential to saving this species at scale.

I look forward to hearing about how all of you are embracing innovation and I wish you and your loved ones a safe, happy, and prosperous new year!

Sincerely,

Saar Safra  
CEO and Co-Founder  
Beewise

## Top Highlights from 2024

## Research Updates

Beewise Heat Chamber Kills 99% of Deadly Varroa Mites: Our research found that the BeeHome™'s heat treatment effectively kills 99% of deadly Varroa mites in capped brood. Auburn University researchers also brought Beewise Heat Chambers to Thailand, finding they killed 100% of Tropilaelaps, another mite even deadlier than Varroa that is found in Asia and not yet present in the US.
