Why a Research Project on Bees and Pollinators?
We have developed technology that translates the language of bees, allowing us to understand their signals and needs.
Our goal is to map 90% of European territory, distinguishing between sustainable and problematic areas.
Our community of businesses and citizens is adopting this project, which has become one of the largest bee studies in Europe.
How to Adopt a Hive?
Adopt
Adopt
Select the technological beehive you want to adopt. Each hive is monitored by sensors and microphones that collect data on the bees and their environment.
Monitor
Monitor
Download our app, analyze sensor data, and track the growth of your hive. You are directly contributing to 3Bee's environmental research project.
Receive
Receive
Receive photos and videos from your hive and a jar of honey as a reward. In respect for the bees, we collect only a small part of the honey.
Who Are Bees and Pollinators?
Generalists, like domestic bees, visit many flower varieties, appreciating biodiversity.
Specialists focus on specific species, forming mutualistic relationships with these plants.
Nocturnal pollinators, like moths, work at dusk when some plants release nectar and intense fragrances.
What Threats Do Bees Face?
Climate Change
Extreme weather events lead to reduced food resources for bees
Pesticides
Careless use of chemical treatments becomes harmful poisons for biodiversity
Diseases
Pests, viruses, and bacteria affect pollinators and spread rapidly
Habitat Loss
Deforestation and urbanization reduce pollinator foraging areas
Bees Are Essential
With Bees
50,000 Species
Without Bees
Less than 1,000
3Bee Defends and Studies Pollinators
Monitor
3Bee has developed technology to study domestic and wild bees. The data allows us to understand the health of biodiversity.
Regenerate
By choosing a 3Bee hive, you contribute to the development of agroforestry systems that regenerate biodiversity. We spread nectar and pollen across the territory.
Educate
Our data is used by over 15 universities and research centers to study bees. More than 800 schools have also activated 3Bee's educational programs.
HOW DOES 3BEE WORK?
The research project
Hives
We do not create new hives but take care of existing ones. We protect them using innovative methods for accurate biomonitoring.
Pollinators
Actively contribute to the health of pollinators and the regeneration of biodiversity. Join us by developing nectar oases to care for all pollinators.
Technology
All hives are constantly monitored by biomimetic sensors that analyze bee health variations. Our bees have a mortality rate reduced by over 30%.

Discover the World
Explore the secrets of bees through the beekeeper's stories.
By adopting a 3Bee hive, you have the opportunity to establish a direct connection with the beekeeper. You will receive regular updates on bee health and hive status, and you can discover their secrets.
3Bee is committed to ensuring that our hives are entrusted to expert beekeepers engaged in biodiversity-regenerating practices. All of them use 3Bee's care and monitoring technology to control hive conditions and ensure bee well-being.
Receive the Gift
A Symbol of Honey.
As a thank-you for adopting a 3Bee hive, we will send you a small quantity of honey as a token of our appreciation.
By adopting a 3Bee hive, you support bee conservation and research, while enjoying the content created by the beekeeper who cares for your adopted hive.
