He is the founder and CEO of Anabi Agritech Solutions, a company dedicated to integrating IoT (Internet of Things) solutions for beekeeping in Africa and globally.

Founded in 2020, Anabi Agritech Solutions is a tech-driven agricultural company specializing in apiculture. The company utilizes sensors installed inside beehives to collect and analyze data, making decision-making easier for beekeepers. The collected data includes temperature, humidity, weight, and sounds, all of which are transmitted directly to the beekeepers' mobile devices.

"Our sensor units send hive information to any mobile device creating a transparent monitoring system between small beekeepers and their contractors, simultaneously alerting and notifying hive operators to guarantee zero loss in production," the startup’s founder explained in 2021.

Anabi Agritech Solutions also connects monofloral honey beekeepers to the global market through its online platform, helping them expand their customer base and boost sales.

Abiye Tadeos holds a bachelor's degree in computer engineering, which he earned in 2017 from the Addis Ababa Science and Technology University. After his studies, he interned at iCog Labs, a company specializing in artificial intelligence, before becoming a junior software developer there in 2018. He left the company in 2019 to focus on developing his startup.
