ScandiNova Systems AB was founded in July 2001, by people with long commercial and technical experience in E-Beam technology and pulsed power applications. The Company has its location in Uppsala, Sweden.

ScandiNova has established a network of competence with highly skilled and experienced partners, such as MAX-LAB in Lund, the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), the Ångström Laboratory in Uppsala, Crewson Engineering Inc. amongst others.

ScandiNova Systems AB staff members have been building Line-type PFN-Modulators using thyratrons since the 1960s, producing pulse power from 1kW to 20GW and average power from 1kW to 5MW. When ScandiNova Systems opened for business in July 2001, the founders of the company were already fully experienced in this technology and established one objective – “To become the leader in the Solid State Modulator field by releasing the third generation of Solid State Modulator technology”. At the beginning of 2002 a new solid state modulator patent was filed by ScandiNova, which was granted in 2004.
