Startups in the competition came from the areas of Big Data & Data Science, Internet & Mobile, Enterprise Software, Cyber-security, Storage, FinTech, IoT - Internet of Things, Wearable Computing and Digital Health.
"The competition is part of a new strategic cooperation between JVP and Shengjing to promote investment in Israeli startups and to promote Israeli startups in the Chinese market," said JVP Managing Partner Kobi Rozengarten. "Israel creates leading companies in technological development and innovation, and that is exactly what the Chinese are looking for. The Israeli finalists come from areas in which Israel is considered a world leader. I wish them much luck and am sure they will make us proud."
"The Israeli market is of great interest to us," said Sherrie Wang, Senior Partner at Shengjing. "We have invested $50 million in Israel already and we are only beginning. This competition is very important for us because it connects us directly to the Israeli startup industry and brings the startups directly to China. The Awards offer the biggest prizes ever in a startup competition. Our global prize has grown, reaching $25 million. Many Chinese investors joined in on the initiative after hearing that Israeli startups would be coming to China. Opportunities for these Israelis in China are enormous and we will open doors for them."
Among the participants in the event in which the Israeli finalists were chosen:
Mr. Han Jun, Science & Technology Counselor of Chinese Embassy to Israel. Jun emphasized that trade between Israel and China stands at $12 Billion and that China is Israel's largest trading partner in Asia.

'Canada’s Top Energy Innovators '15', 'From environmental reclamation to operational excellence, Canada’s Top Energy Innovators are pushing hard on their industry’s leading edges' - AOM, ALBERTA - Mar 2, 2015
www.albertaoilmagazine.com/2015/03/canadas-top-energy-innova…
"In retrospect, it almost sounded too good to be true. Toe-to-heel air injection, or THAI, was a process that combined controlled combustion with vertical and horizontal wells and promised to produce higher volumes of partially upgraded oil at a fraction of the cost of existing methods. And because it used negligible amounts of water, it was better for the environment as well. “It’s an ideal technical solution,” former Petrobank COO Chris Bloomer said. It was so ideal, in fact, that it enjoyed a place of prominence in a video on innovation that was produced in the mid-2000s, and which still plays today at the Oil Sands Discovery Centre in Fort McMurray.
Unfortunately, it didn’t unfold quite the way its proponents had hoped. Rather than revolutionizing the way heavy oil is extracted in Alberta, the technology has consistently failed to even meet the results set by more traditional methods of SAGD and nearly bankrupted the company that invested so much time and money into it in the process. Despite a major corporate restructuring and a shift out of the Athabasca oil sands and into Saskatchewan, Petrobank could never translate THAI’s technological potential into meaningful production gains on its various properties and demonstration projects. Last March, after the results at its Kerrobert property continued to underwhelm, Petrobank agreed to merge with Touchstone Exploration in order to form a new company that would focus its efforts on Touchstone’s assets in Trinidad. The only mention of THAI in the press release heralding the deal was a footnote indicating that the company would be “continuing our commitment to eliminate the negative operating cash flows from the Kerrobert THAI project.”
Did Petrobank’s executives oversell the possibilities associated with THAI? Maybe. But maybe, like so many ideas that promise to move the oil and gas sector forward, it will take longer to demonstrate its value than first expected. Hydraulic fracturing, after all, was around for decades before it transformed the U.S. shale industry into a global powerhouse. Not all technologies immediately find their market, or generate the kind of return that’s needed in order to grow it. But that doesn’t mean that they’re necessarily a failure either. It’s entirely possible that, one day, THAI will do for heavy oil deposits what hydraulic fracturing has done for shale.
How will the 26 innovations and technologies (yes, 26 – we can be innovative too) on our inaugural list of Canada’s Top Energy Innovators fare? To be honest, we have no idea. That’s the nature of innovation – the reward can’t come without some risk, and sometimes a product or process that seems destined to succeed ends in failure. What matters is that the people and the companies they work for continue to take those risks. In the 21st century, geology and geography are no longer enough to win. If Canada’s energy sector is going to create as much prosperity over the next 50 years as it did over the last 50, it’s going to have to continue to invest in technology and the high-wattage brains that can both put it to best uses and then make it better. That is the most important renewable resource we have.
The Innovation: Waste recycling
The Innovator: Enerkem, Environment
In the energy industry, heavy focus tends to be placed on cutting back the energy and materials required to produce and refine products. Of lesser interest tends to be what to do with the waste products that result from the production and consumption of said energy – or, better yet, how to convert that waste into its very own energy source. Enerkem’s commercial facility in Edmonton, Alberta, which converts municipal waste into methanol (and eventually ethanol in 2016), does exactly that. The facility’s construction was part of a partnership between the company, the city’s municipal government and Alberta Innovates – Energy & Environment Solutions that uses a proprietary thermochemical process to produce as much as 38 million liters of renewable chemicals and biofuels per year. Since building the facility, Montreal-based Enerkem has landed three major deals with Chinese companies to build similar plants that convert waste to ethanol. Demand for ethanol has waned in recent years as investors shift their focus toward electric engines rather than those that use higher ethanol blends, and as the energy-intense process of using corn crops to produce ethanol hampers the fuel’s reputation. A process such as Enerkem’s, at least on its surface, could argue against that latter notion.
The Innovation: Supply chain
The Innovator: MEG Energy, Strategy and Operations
Plenty of mid-tier producers in Canada’s energy space are making the most of the latest available technologies to coax oil out of the ground more economically and environmentally. But it would be hard to argue such a company is doing so with a more nimble and innovative spirit than MEG Energy. The company has repeatedly shown versatility in reaching new markets, from its 2010 joint venture on the Access Pipeline, to its construction of a private pipeline connecting the Stonefell Terminal to a rail facility in Bruderheim, to its decision to ship bitumen by barge to buyers in the United States. But MEG is known for more than increasing trade optionality: its HI-Q partial upgrading technology is one of several leading attempts to ship bitumen without the need for diluent. The company’s culture of adopting technologies in their early stages has paid off. In 2009, before the company had even gone public, it was setting industry-wide records due to the pace at which it was expanding its production profile at Christina Lake, growing from zero to 25,000 barrels per day in just 10 months.
The Innovation: Reputational Remediation
The Innovator: Linda Coady, Strategy and Operations
If Enbridge’s Northern Gateway pipeline does end up getting built, it’s safe to assume that the date June 17, 2013, will figure prominently in the timeline leading up to its completion. That’s when the company hired Linda Coady, a former MacMillan Bloedel executive who helped broker a breakthrough in the impasse between it and the environmental activists that were protesting its Clayoquot Sound operations in the mid-1990s. Time will tell whether she can engineer a similar breakthrough with Enbridge’s more vocal critics, but it appears that her influence is already being felt. Gone is the high-profile advertising campaign that attempted to sell Enbridge’s virtues with generic platitudes and soothing imagery. In its place is a meaningful attempt to engage the aboriginal communities that remain the project’s biggest roadblock, one that includes substantially increased equity participation and devolution of control from Enbridge to an independent entity governed by a board that represented the interests of all of the project’s various stakeholders. It’s not clear that this new strategy will work, but the very fact that it’s being attempted in the first place speaks to Coady’s influence. And while admitting one’s mistakes and changing course might not seem like much of an innovation, in this particular case it may well be the one that produces the biggest gains.

The Innovation: Partnering with aboriginal communities
The Innovator: Savanna Energy Services, Strategy and Operations
Finding skilled labor and establishing positive working relationships with aboriginal communities are two areas in which the energy sector has traditionally struggled. But Savanna Energy Services found a way to solve both problems at once by offering a 50 per cent equity stake in new service and drilling rigs to aboriginal communities who live where it does business. Since 2001, the company has partnered with 12 First Nations and Metis communities on the ownership and operation of 16 drilling rigs and nine service rigs, and in 2013 it formed a joint venture partnership with the Fort McKay First Nation (one that offers drilling, well servicing and oilfield equipment rentals) in which Savanna holds a 49 per cent stake. It’s also attracted significant investment in its shares by the Dene Tha’ First Nation, the Samson Cree Nation, the Saddle Lake First Nation, the Horse Lake First Nation and the Métis Nation of Alberta. As a result of these initiatives, the company has access to a local supply of labor and good working relationships with the communities they come from and whose land they’re often working on – strategic advantages that most service companies don’t always have.

The Innovation: StackFRAC
The Innovator: Dan Themig, Exploration and Development
If there was a hall of fame for oil and gas industry innovators, Packers Plus president Dan Themig would be an inner-circle member. Along with Peter Krabben and Ken Paltzat, Themig founded Packers Plus, a company that would help revolutionize the way horizontal wells were fracked – and in turn help revolutionize the entire North American oil industry. StackFRAC, the company’s prize product and primary innovation, is an open hole ball drop completion system that’s widely credited with unlocking old resource plays that were thought to be too expensive or too technically challenging to tap. The company has continued to press ahead in the years since, adding new functions and features to its StackFRAC process along with additional tools and technologies. That, in turn, has allowed operators to dramatically increase the number of frack stages in each well – and the production that comes with them. In 2012, Themig was recognized for his work with a Sproule Innovation and Achievement Award, which are given to individuals or organizations that “have made significant contributions and accomplishments towards advancing the development of unconventional gas resources in Canada.” It’s a safe bet that it won’t be the last award he receives for his contributions to that sector.

The Innovation: Collaboration between large oil sands companies
The Innovator: COSIA, Strategy and Operations
Co-operation isn’t exactly a game-changing innovation. But co-operation between multibillion-dollar oil companies? That’s a different story. And that’s precisely the story behind Canada’s Oil Sands Innovation Alliance (COSIA), a union of some of the biggest players in the oil sands. They’ve agreed to share technologies that can help reduce their carbon footprint, improve their environmental performance and minimize the impact of tailings and other waste products they generate in the course of their operations. As of the end of 2014, COSIA’s 13 member companies have shared 777 technologies with each other that cost nearly $1 billion. In 2014 alone, 68 projects were initiated at a cost of more than $200 million. Sharing valuable R&D isn’t something that publicly traded companies are known for doing with each other, but Suncor CEO Steve Williams says Canada’s oil sands companies have learned to see each other as peers rather than competitors. “I don’t see it as us versus each other. It’s us versus the rest of the world.” And while trial and error might have been an acceptable way to do business in the past, it’s no longer good enough. “If you’re smart, you learn from your mistakes,” Williams says. “And if you’re really smart, you learn from other peoples’ mistakes .”
The Innovation: Upcycling tailings
The Innovator: Titanium Corporation, Product Development
Most people see tailings ponds as a problem to be mitigated. But Calgary’s Titanium Corporation sees them as a resource to be tapped – and it’s doing just that with its suite of Creating Value from Waste technologies. They all seek to extract the valuable components found within tailings, be it heavy metals, bitumen, solvent or water, and find an outlet for them. Between 2008 and 2009 the company conducted more than 20 research projects with 12 different organizations, and in 2010 it performed a 12-month pilot for three oil sands companies. That pilot recovered 75 per cent of the bitumen and solvent in the tailings it was processing while also removing heavy mineral concentrates. Now the company is ready to move to a commercial deployment of its technologies, which would see a facility built near existing bitumen froth treatment plants that would apply a second stage of treatment. That treatment, it believes, would recover commercially attractive volumes of residual bitumen, solvents and heavy minerals like zircon and titanium while making the oil sands more environmentally friendly. Talk about a win-win.
The Innovation: Finding new markets, for natural gas
The Innovator: Ferus Natural Gas Fuels, Product Development
While oil sands producers have received more than their share of global scrutiny for the carbon intensity of their operations, their peers in the Bakken shale have largely gotten a free pass to date. That’s a curious oversight given the enormous volumes of natural gas that they’re flaring into the air – gas that could be captured and reused rather than simply burned off. But Calgary’s Ferus Natural Gas Fuels, along with Statoil and GE, has developed a solution to that underreported problem. Its Last Mile Fueling Solution, which captures flare gas and uses it to power as many as six of Statoil’s drilling rigs and one of its frack fleets in the region, reduces field emissions (and will help Statoil comply with new flaring regulations) while actually reducing its operating costs.
That’s not the only innovative work that Ferus is up to these days, either. In late October, the company announced the grand opening of the first merchant LNG facility in Canada in Elmworth, Alberta. The facility produces fuel for engines used in drilling rigs, pressure pumping services and water heating as well as heavy-duty highway and off-road trucks in the region. And Ferus continues to pursue other avenues through which to build out a more robust LNG supply chain in North America, one that it hopes will lead to more widespread use of natural gas in a variety of commercial, industrial and consumer applications.
The Innovation Taking the “dirty”, out of dirty oil
The Innovator: Neil Camarta, Exploration and Development
Whether it’s the European Union’s aborted fuel quality directive or the efforts of anti-Keystone protestors to single out oil sands crude, it’s clear that Canadian crude is under attack. These attacks share a common strategy: to effectively de-commoditize oil from various sources by defining them by the emissions attached to extracting them. That’s bad news for oil sands crude, given that it tends to have marginally higher emissions profiles than some of its competing sources of supply. But Neil Camarta, an industry veteran who has run oil sands operations for Shell and Petro-Canada, has a solution that could stop those efforts dead in their tracks: DSU. The acronym stands for desulfurization and upgrading, and it’s a new upgrading process being offered by his new company, Field Upgrading, that he describes as being both simpler and more elegant than existing options.
It involves mixing molten sodium with bitumen, which takes the sulfur, heavy metals and acids out of the oil and yields a pipe-ready product (no diluent needed) with just “a fraction of the hydrogen required in conventional upgrading.” As a result, the company says, its process reduces both operating costs and carbon emissions compared to existing upgrading options. Indeed, according to Camarta, a recent test of a sample of Fort McMurray bitumen which contained five per cent sulfur, 300 ppm of heavy metals, an API under eight and an acid number of five was transformed by the DSU process into a product with 0.1 per cent sulfur content, five ppm of heavy metals and no acid at all. And because it’s fully scalable, it can be deployed in a variety of ways, from on-site upgrading of SAGD production to a full-scale permanent facility.

The Innovation Digital: Drilling rig information
The Innovator: PetroFeed, Strategy and Operations
PetroFeed made some pretty big waves in 2014 with the launch (and subsequent adoption) of an app that allows users to see the real-time status of drilling rigs across the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. Its informative and user-friendly interface made it a hit with users on both Apple and Android platforms, with one iTunes reviewer noting that “Everyone I know in the industry uses this.” In 2015 PetroFeed has already rolled out a new feature (the product of a partnership with operators and major service companies) that will allow users to get directions to well sites. Doing this from a single platform, rather than relying on a mish-mash of Google Map printouts and operator-sourced instructions, will allow companies to get the same set of directions out to everyone who needs them in a timely fashion. PetroFeed believes that this will increase supply chain efficiency and safety by reducing so-called “windshield time” for operators, and it will also allow companies to be more responsive when it comes to changing conditions, be it a road that’s in bad shape or a local farmer who doesn’t want traffic passing close to his home. It remains to be seen whether the app can transition from a free distribution model to a paid one, but its growing popularity among users suggests that’s more likely a question of when than if.

The Innovation: CO2-EOR
The Innovator: Cenovus Energy, Exploration and Development
There are almost no examples of successful CO2-EOR projects in Canada – that is, with the exception of the Weyburn, Saskatchewan, field operated by Cenovus Energy. The company has had its Weyburn project under CO2 floods since 2000. Production peaked at the field in the 1960s at around 50,000 barrels per day, and eventually dropped south of 10,000 by the 1990s. The lack of CO2-EOR projects in Canada is largely due to a shortage of natural carbon deposits; in the U.S., where such deposits are widespread, producers regularly inject CO2 into lackluster wells to stimulate production. But Cenovus managed to cut a deal with a North Dakota company that would pipe CO2 to Weyburn, which soon brought production back up to about 26,000 bpd in 2014. Since this past October, much of that supply of CO2 started coming from the nearby Boundary Dam CCS project, which is the first brown coal-fired power plant ever built with an integrated carbon capture and storage segment. Like many of the other technologies Cenovus adopted early on, other companies are now following suit.

The Innovation: Low-cost CCS
The Innovator: Inventys, The Environment
Carbon dioxide is widely considered the main offender when it comes to greenhouse gases that cause global warming and climate change. And for reasons known only to certain environmental groups, oil and gas producers, despite leading the way in clean-energy investment, take almost all of the heat for it. It’s no wonder then that curbing the amount of CO2 that gets released into the environment whenever fossil fuels are burned is not only an industrial best practice but also the only way forward. Vancouver-based Inventys is both leading the way in Canadian carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) technology and taking the process one step further. In 2011, the company inked a research and development deal with Suncor Energy for trials of its proprietary VeloxoTherm technology for carbon capture, storage and eventual reuse in CO2-enhanced oil recovery. Technically a gas separation system, VeloxoTherm uses what’s called “temperature swing absorption” to capture carbon at the emission source – a flue stack for instance – resulting in a carbon capture cost of US$15 per tonne, or roughly one-third the cost of other post-combustion solutions. That carbon can then be injected underground for storage, or used either down-well for enhanced oil recovery or in chemical manufacturing.
The Innovation: Cutting-edge fluid additives
The Innovator: nFluids, Product Development
Drilling fluids have many jobs, from cooling and lubricating the drill bit to removing cuttings, sealing the wellbore and maintaining hydrostatic pressure to prevent kicks or blowouts, to name just a few. The loss of drilling fluids, while part of the process, is both costly and potentially dangerous. And while there was a time when drillers would chuck graphite, walnut shells and wool down the hole in a slapdash effort to stanch the flow when seepage into or out of the well was detected, today (thanks in large part to nFluids) they have the potential to block seepage using nanoparticles. Incubated at the University of Calgary, nFluids is a private company that has been developing custom fluid additives which should soon provide a safer, greener, more efficient and cost-effective drilling operation. And while other universities and research centers have experimented with adding nanoparticles to drilling fluids, what puts nFluids’s patent-pending technology ahead of the rest is that the company doesn’t use one-size-fits-all nanoparticles off the shelf. Instead it makes them in-house, each set specifically tailored to fit the geology of a specific site. With the average well in Western Canada’s tight oil formations losing between three and five cubic meters of drilling fluid for every 100 meters drilled, that seepage can cost between $30,000 and $80,000 per well, based on average drill depths. If they can prevent even a fraction of that – and previous laboratory tests show their nanoparticle additives can cut fluid loss by as much as 90 per cent – then they’re on to something huge.

The Innovation Wastewater: filtration and purification
The Innovator: Colleen Legzdins, The Environment
As in the wider world, access to clean water is an increasingly important asset in the energy industry. Clean water output is no longer just a favor to the planet but a requirement for doing business that shows up on balance sheets. Treating waste from water-intensive industries like fracking, oil sands mining and SAGD is expensive, labor- and chemical-intensive and, let’s face it, not always reliable. But after cutting her teeth pioneering early-stage hydrogen fuel cells, Axine Water Technologies founder and chief engineer Colleen Legzdins set out to change all that. The result is a quick, low-cost, chemical-free, one-step technology that uses electrochemical oxidation to remove high concentrations of environmental pollutants from industrial wastewater. The cell-based system is modular and scalable, and can “plug in” to any size project without disrupting existing mining or refining processes. The water that comes out isn’t drinkable, but it is reuseable on site in various applications, creating a clean-water loop that industry won’t have to keep going back to the well for.

The Innovation Wastewater: filtration and purification
The Innovator: Sky Hunter, Exploration and Development
Mapping oil and gas plays is nothing new, but doing it from an airplane certainly is. And that’s what Calgary-based Sky Hunter has done by taking seismic to the skies with its proprietary technology that detects and maps micro-seeps in the ground to predict the presence of pressurized hydrocarbon reservoirs. Sky Hunter uses a small aircraft equipped with a “hydrocarbon nose” and other devices that record airborne hydrocarbon intensities and electromagnetic indicators from approximately 100 meters above the ground – or sea or ice. While one data channel measures for dry gas, two others account for rich gas and oil, filtering for vertical micro-seepage only while eliminating the “noise” of random hydrocarbons present in the atmosphere. The process is not only cheaper than traditional seismic surveying, according to the company, but it can survey areas otherwise off-limits to simple seismic sampling, all while leaving the ecosystem – whether onshore or off – undisturbed. With well over 100,000 kilometers of flight test data proving the effectiveness of Sky Hunter’s patent-pending technology, it seems the sky’s the limit for continued innovation in the airborne exploration field.

The Innovation: Building industry-scale wind power
The Innovator: Kent Brown, Strategy and Operations
Clean Energy Canada named him 2014’s Canadian Innovator of the Year. We concur. With $730 million in operating assets expected by the end of 2015 and some key partnerships with First Nations governments, BluEarth and its president and CEO Kent Brown have created a viable renewable energy business in a country – and a city, Calgary – where many said it couldn’t be done. The independent power producer focuses on buying, building and operating wind, hydro and solar projects, with 16 projects now operating or in development across the country from B.C. to Nova Scotia. Brown, a former CEO of Canadian Hydro Developers, has put BluEarth on track to control $1 billion in spinning assets by 2017, despite the company only opening its doors four years ago. This year, BluEarth says it will target approximately $700 million in new acquisitions of development-stage projects and begin construction on a new wind project in Alberta.

The Innovation: Tailings mycore mediation
The Innovator: Kelcie Miller-Anderson, The Environment
Kelcie Miller-Anderson has been experimenting with mushrooms since she was 15 years old. Today, the science-minded Calgary teen has turned that interest into a potentially game-changing approach to remediating oil sands tailings. Miller-Anderson, 20, has shown how tiny white oyster mushrooms grown in tailings samples can quickly and substantially reduce levels of residual petroleum hydrocarbons, naphthenic acids and pH levels and increase sodium absorption in both solid tailings and tailings water. Miller-Anderson began her award-winning research using soybean plants, but, given the harsh climate of northern Alberta, soon switched to the hardier oyster mushroom common to northern British Columbia with equal success. Recently named one of Canada’s Top 20 Under 20, the University of Alberta student is now exploring whether there are other native species of mushroom that could also work. The theory behind tailings mycoremediation – remediation using fungi – is that the underground part of the fungus releases enzymes that break down hydrocarbons and then uses them as sugars to grow. With time on her side and industry looking closely over her shoulder, Miller-Anderson’s research may yet prove among the most cost-effective and environmentally friendly remediation options for tailings producers, both in the oil and gas industry and elsewhere.

The Innovation: Wired drill pipe
The Innovator: Beaver Drilling, Exploration and Development
Everyone and everything seems to be going wireless these days, but there’s at least one company that’s moving in the other direction. Beaver Drilling will be deploying wired drill pipe on one of its rigs in 2015, and the Ethernet-like cable that it plans to use will give its employees real-time analysis of what’s happening at the drill bit. That means they can process the data the drill is sending back and adjust the drilling parameters as needed, improving efficiency and reducing costs by as much as 30 per cent. And while the technology has been used offshore for several years, theirs will be the first time it’s been deployed on a land rig in Canada. In an environment where drilling costs will be scrutinized more closely, that kind of cost-saving improvement should be of interest to just about everyone.

The Innovation: Converting sulfur, into plant fertilizer
The Innovator: Sulvaris, Strategy and Operations
Sulfur is what puts the “sour” in sour gas and is a common waste product of many oil and gas industries, including Alberta’s. What to do with the poisonous pale-yellow powder once extracted from oil and gas has long been a question that’s answered by the chemical manufacturing industry. But last year, Calgary-based Sulvaris began to put shovels in the ground on its first production plant designed to convert sulfur into farm fertilizer. The Alberta facility is on the site of an existing gas plant operated by Keyera, which is a 50-50 partner in the project. The plant is designed to convert sour gas sulfur into 217,000 tonnes per year of a fertilizer the company is calling Vitasul. The product, which addresses the vital sulfur requirements of agricultural soil, will be marketed in the U.S., Canada and Asia. The product not only creates a competitive alternative to other sulfur fertilizers but provides a new value-added market for a Canadian oil and gas byproduct. And that market
is considerable: in 2011 Alberta produced nearly five million tonnes of sulfur (roughly two-thirds from sour gas and one-third from oil sands upgrading and refining), according to the Energy Resources Conservation Board.
The Innovation: Green energy storage
The Innovator: Rocky Mountain Power, The Environment
Renewables, primarily wind, already provide approximately eight per cent of Alberta’s electricity, with two more wind farms planned near Edmonton. But taking the excess power from when the wind really blows in order to save it for when it doesn’t has always been a challenge. Calgary’s Rocky Mountain Power thinks it has found a solution by going underground – literally. By carving out caverns the size of 60-storey skyscrapers in naturally occurring salt layers underneath the Lloydminster area, Rocky Mountain believes it can store enough energy per cavern, in the form of compressed air, to power a town of 100,000 people for five days. But the caverns would be less a source of emergency power than a means of stabilizing the electrical grid by taking excess power off the grid and converting it for storage when the wind is strongest.
The Innovation: Modular SAGD facilities
The Innovator: Oak Point Energy, Exploration and Development
To cut costs in the construction phase of steam-assisted gravity drainage projects, companies are offering increasingly modularized designs for steam generation plants. Oak Point Energy may have taken that trend a step further with its modular SAGD facilities, which it says can be assembled on site in all of 30 days. In 2011, Oak Point Energy bought KemeX, the company which designed the technology, and has plans to install the facilities at various oil sands operations, beginning with its Lewis Steepbank lease. The facilities vary in size, ranging from 1,260 barrels per day capacity to over 21,600 bpd. The economic argument for the pocket-size plants, according to the company, is that they can be constructed almost entirely from fabrication shops, making on-site assembly faster and less laborious. The modular facilities are said to shorten development cycles and use less water than larger, more conventional SAGD plants. As producers pare back their capital expenditure programs, all the while attempting to bring on new barrels, the modular technology, or others like it, is likely to have increased appeal amid low oil prices.

The Innovation: Alternative Fuel Engines
The Innovator: Westport Innovations, Product Development
Anyone who still thinks that alternative-power engines are too wimpy to properly power cars and trucks is likely unfamilar with the work of Westport Innovations. The Vancouver-based company’s compressed natural gas (CNG) engines provide all the torque, power and efficiency of their diesel counterparts and are already powering long-haul trucks, municipal buses and the company has even delivered LNG tenders for a Canadian National Railway test engine. Under the Ford Motor Company’s vehicle modifier program, Westport’s trademarked Westport WiNG Power System has been integrated into several lines of Ford’s lightest- to heaviest-duty pickup trucks and a school bus. The WiNG system is in use by fire departments, construction companies and delivery fleets around the U.S., and will be coming to a town near you – if it isn’t there already.

The Innovation: Clean, Green, High-Efficiency Burners
The Innovator: Absolute Combustion, Product Development
Heat is a “hot” commodity in the oilfield. It’s a basic requirement all the way down the line from extraction to processing to distribution. So it stands to reason that any gains in heating efficiency, no matter how slight, can quickly stack up into real dollars saved. Most fire-tube burners in the oil sands – in separators and treaters, for example – use high-pressure fuels which send flames several feet from the combustion source. That’s not only a potentially dangerous waste of heat, but more flame also means more wear and tear on downstream equipment. So Edmonton-based Absolute Combustion International developed a high-intensity burner that delivers an even and consistent heat, and a near-flameless one to boot. That advanced efficiency means not only lower fuel costs but fewer greenhouse gas emissions. So far, the burner’s applications are targeted towards smaller fire-tube jobs in the three- to five-million Btu range, but down the line the company is considering building more powerful units capable of heating fracking water or producing steam for SAGD extraction.

The Innovation: Advanced Fiber-Optic Leak Detection, in Pipelines
The Innovator: Hifi Engineering, Product Development
A pipeline leak, rupture or spill is the worst-case scenario for pipeline companies and the industry as a whole. Leak detection systems are many and varied, but for all, speed and accuracy of leak location are paramount in mounting an effective response. Calgary-based Hifi has developed a next-generation fiber optic monitoring system that can provide precise acoustic, thermal and vibration data along an entire length of pipe – and do it all simultaneously. Founded in 2007, Hifi first developed its patented technology in the upstream sector, providing drillers and operators acoustic data in more than 1,000 oil and gas wells. The new midstream technology has been refined to locate extremely low-rate leaks and even indications of pipeline strain before a leak occurs. Now, using laser light pulses through glass fiber optic cable, Hifi can “listen” for hairline cracks and even potential problems like land movement or digging near a pipeline. The company’s goal? No less than 100 per cent safe, leak-free pipelines.
The Innovation: SAGD Evaporator
The Innovator: GE Canada, The Environment
By its very nature, SAGD is a water intensive process – for now, at least. But GE Canada has made some impressive progress on reducing the amount of water the average SAGD operation uses thanks in large part to the work of Bill Heins, a chemical engineer who’s spent the last two decades trying to figure out how to minimize water use and maximize the ability to recycle it in a variety of industrial settings. Now a general manager for thermal products at GE Water & Process Technologies, he’s developed a SAGD evaporator that could, at full capacity, purify and recover as much as 98 per cent of the water used in a given SAGD operation. His invention also requires far less energy to heat the water than a comparable evaporator. As a result, one of GE’s evaporators could save as much as 500 million gallons of fresh water per year. If you scale that up to the number of SAGD operations in the province today, the number climbs easily into the billions of gallons. For a province that’s already staring at potential water shortages in the near future, that would be a major – maybe even transformative – difference.

The Innovation: The Super Pad
The Innovator: Seven Generations Energy, Strategy and Operations
Despite being a relatively young company – or, perhaps, because of it – Seven Generations Energy has earned a reputation for being one of the most innovative companies in Albera. And while it stands out for its willingness to experiment with different combinations of drilling techniques, muds, completion techniques and well spacing and placements in an effort to maximize production and minimize costs, it’s the so-called Super Pads that it’s developed and deployed that are the real eyeopener. Each pad acts like a mini gas plant, with compression, dehydration and fluid-catching facilities on site that can perform a three-phase separation of the gas that’s drilled underneath them. At capacity, each pad is designed to handle 50,000 mcf of gas and 10,000 barrels of condensate per day, which it can then deliver to a central facility. And because they have the compression facilities on site, each length of pipe can handle more gas. All told, each pad adds to the company’s overall operational efficiency – no small consideration in a company that’s looking to grow as quickly as Seven Generations.

www.albertaoilmagazine.com/2015/03/canadas-top-energy-innova…
"In retrospect, it almost sounded too good to be true. Toe-to-heel air injection, or THAI, was a process that combined controlled combustion with vertical and horizontal wells and promised to produce higher volumes of partially upgraded oil at a fraction of the cost of existing methods. And because it used negligible amounts of water, it was better for the environment as well. “It’s an ideal technical solution,” former Petrobank COO Chris Bloomer said. It was so ideal, in fact, that it enjoyed a place of prominence in a video on innovation that was produced in the mid-2000s, and which still plays today at the Oil Sands Discovery Centre in Fort McMurray.
Unfortunately, it didn’t unfold quite the way its proponents had hoped. Rather than revolutionizing the way heavy oil is extracted in Alberta, the technology has consistently failed to even meet the results set by more traditional methods of SAGD and nearly bankrupted the company that invested so much time and money into it in the process. Despite a major corporate restructuring and a shift out of the Athabasca oil sands and into Saskatchewan, Petrobank could never translate THAI’s technological potential into meaningful production gains on its various properties and demonstration projects. Last March, after the results at its Kerrobert property continued to underwhelm, Petrobank agreed to merge with Touchstone Exploration in order to form a new company that would focus its efforts on Touchstone’s assets in Trinidad. The only mention of THAI in the press release heralding the deal was a footnote indicating that the company would be “continuing our commitment to eliminate the negative operating cash flows from the Kerrobert THAI project.”
Did Petrobank’s executives oversell the possibilities associated with THAI? Maybe. But maybe, like so many ideas that promise to move the oil and gas sector forward, it will take longer to demonstrate its value than first expected. Hydraulic fracturing, after all, was around for decades before it transformed the U.S. shale industry into a global powerhouse. Not all technologies immediately find their market, or generate the kind of return that’s needed in order to grow it. But that doesn’t mean that they’re necessarily a failure either. It’s entirely possible that, one day, THAI will do for heavy oil deposits what hydraulic fracturing has done for shale.
How will the 26 innovations and technologies (yes, 26 – we can be innovative too) on our inaugural list of Canada’s Top Energy Innovators fare? To be honest, we have no idea. That’s the nature of innovation – the reward can’t come without some risk, and sometimes a product or process that seems destined to succeed ends in failure. What matters is that the people and the companies they work for continue to take those risks. In the 21st century, geology and geography are no longer enough to win. If Canada’s energy sector is going to create as much prosperity over the next 50 years as it did over the last 50, it’s going to have to continue to invest in technology and the high-wattage brains that can both put it to best uses and then make it better. That is the most important renewable resource we have.
The Innovation: Waste recycling
The Innovator: Enerkem, Environment
In the energy industry, heavy focus tends to be placed on cutting back the energy and materials required to produce and refine products. Of lesser interest tends to be what to do with the waste products that result from the production and consumption of said energy – or, better yet, how to convert that waste into its very own energy source. Enerkem’s commercial facility in Edmonton, Alberta, which converts municipal waste into methanol (and eventually ethanol in 2016), does exactly that. The facility’s construction was part of a partnership between the company, the city’s municipal government and Alberta Innovates – Energy & Environment Solutions that uses a proprietary thermochemical process to produce as much as 38 million liters of renewable chemicals and biofuels per year. Since building the facility, Montreal-based Enerkem has landed three major deals with Chinese companies to build similar plants that convert waste to ethanol. Demand for ethanol has waned in recent years as investors shift their focus toward electric engines rather than those that use higher ethanol blends, and as the energy-intense process of using corn crops to produce ethanol hampers the fuel’s reputation. A process such as Enerkem’s, at least on its surface, could argue against that latter notion.
The Innovation: Supply chain
The Innovator: MEG Energy, Strategy and Operations
Plenty of mid-tier producers in Canada’s energy space are making the most of the latest available technologies to coax oil out of the ground more economically and environmentally. But it would be hard to argue such a company is doing so with a more nimble and innovative spirit than MEG Energy. The company has repeatedly shown versatility in reaching new markets, from its 2010 joint venture on the Access Pipeline, to its construction of a private pipeline connecting the Stonefell Terminal to a rail facility in Bruderheim, to its decision to ship bitumen by barge to buyers in the United States. But MEG is known for more than increasing trade optionality: its HI-Q partial upgrading technology is one of several leading attempts to ship bitumen without the need for diluent. The company’s culture of adopting technologies in their early stages has paid off. In 2009, before the company had even gone public, it was setting industry-wide records due to the pace at which it was expanding its production profile at Christina Lake, growing from zero to 25,000 barrels per day in just 10 months.
The Innovation: Reputational Remediation
The Innovator: Linda Coady, Strategy and Operations
If Enbridge’s Northern Gateway pipeline does end up getting built, it’s safe to assume that the date June 17, 2013, will figure prominently in the timeline leading up to its completion. That’s when the company hired Linda Coady, a former MacMillan Bloedel executive who helped broker a breakthrough in the impasse between it and the environmental activists that were protesting its Clayoquot Sound operations in the mid-1990s. Time will tell whether she can engineer a similar breakthrough with Enbridge’s more vocal critics, but it appears that her influence is already being felt. Gone is the high-profile advertising campaign that attempted to sell Enbridge’s virtues with generic platitudes and soothing imagery. In its place is a meaningful attempt to engage the aboriginal communities that remain the project’s biggest roadblock, one that includes substantially increased equity participation and devolution of control from Enbridge to an independent entity governed by a board that represented the interests of all of the project’s various stakeholders. It’s not clear that this new strategy will work, but the very fact that it’s being attempted in the first place speaks to Coady’s influence. And while admitting one’s mistakes and changing course might not seem like much of an innovation, in this particular case it may well be the one that produces the biggest gains.

The Innovation: Partnering with aboriginal communities
The Innovator: Savanna Energy Services, Strategy and Operations
Finding skilled labor and establishing positive working relationships with aboriginal communities are two areas in which the energy sector has traditionally struggled. But Savanna Energy Services found a way to solve both problems at once by offering a 50 per cent equity stake in new service and drilling rigs to aboriginal communities who live where it does business. Since 2001, the company has partnered with 12 First Nations and Metis communities on the ownership and operation of 16 drilling rigs and nine service rigs, and in 2013 it formed a joint venture partnership with the Fort McKay First Nation (one that offers drilling, well servicing and oilfield equipment rentals) in which Savanna holds a 49 per cent stake. It’s also attracted significant investment in its shares by the Dene Tha’ First Nation, the Samson Cree Nation, the Saddle Lake First Nation, the Horse Lake First Nation and the Métis Nation of Alberta. As a result of these initiatives, the company has access to a local supply of labor and good working relationships with the communities they come from and whose land they’re often working on – strategic advantages that most service companies don’t always have.

The Innovation: StackFRAC
The Innovator: Dan Themig, Exploration and Development
If there was a hall of fame for oil and gas industry innovators, Packers Plus president Dan Themig would be an inner-circle member. Along with Peter Krabben and Ken Paltzat, Themig founded Packers Plus, a company that would help revolutionize the way horizontal wells were fracked – and in turn help revolutionize the entire North American oil industry. StackFRAC, the company’s prize product and primary innovation, is an open hole ball drop completion system that’s widely credited with unlocking old resource plays that were thought to be too expensive or too technically challenging to tap. The company has continued to press ahead in the years since, adding new functions and features to its StackFRAC process along with additional tools and technologies. That, in turn, has allowed operators to dramatically increase the number of frack stages in each well – and the production that comes with them. In 2012, Themig was recognized for his work with a Sproule Innovation and Achievement Award, which are given to individuals or organizations that “have made significant contributions and accomplishments towards advancing the development of unconventional gas resources in Canada.” It’s a safe bet that it won’t be the last award he receives for his contributions to that sector.

The Innovation: Collaboration between large oil sands companies
The Innovator: COSIA, Strategy and Operations
Co-operation isn’t exactly a game-changing innovation. But co-operation between multibillion-dollar oil companies? That’s a different story. And that’s precisely the story behind Canada’s Oil Sands Innovation Alliance (COSIA), a union of some of the biggest players in the oil sands. They’ve agreed to share technologies that can help reduce their carbon footprint, improve their environmental performance and minimize the impact of tailings and other waste products they generate in the course of their operations. As of the end of 2014, COSIA’s 13 member companies have shared 777 technologies with each other that cost nearly $1 billion. In 2014 alone, 68 projects were initiated at a cost of more than $200 million. Sharing valuable R&D isn’t something that publicly traded companies are known for doing with each other, but Suncor CEO Steve Williams says Canada’s oil sands companies have learned to see each other as peers rather than competitors. “I don’t see it as us versus each other. It’s us versus the rest of the world.” And while trial and error might have been an acceptable way to do business in the past, it’s no longer good enough. “If you’re smart, you learn from your mistakes,” Williams says. “And if you’re really smart, you learn from other peoples’ mistakes .”
The Innovation: Upcycling tailings
The Innovator: Titanium Corporation, Product Development
Most people see tailings ponds as a problem to be mitigated. But Calgary’s Titanium Corporation sees them as a resource to be tapped – and it’s doing just that with its suite of Creating Value from Waste technologies. They all seek to extract the valuable components found within tailings, be it heavy metals, bitumen, solvent or water, and find an outlet for them. Between 2008 and 2009 the company conducted more than 20 research projects with 12 different organizations, and in 2010 it performed a 12-month pilot for three oil sands companies. That pilot recovered 75 per cent of the bitumen and solvent in the tailings it was processing while also removing heavy mineral concentrates. Now the company is ready to move to a commercial deployment of its technologies, which would see a facility built near existing bitumen froth treatment plants that would apply a second stage of treatment. That treatment, it believes, would recover commercially attractive volumes of residual bitumen, solvents and heavy minerals like zircon and titanium while making the oil sands more environmentally friendly. Talk about a win-win.
The Innovation: Finding new markets, for natural gas
The Innovator: Ferus Natural Gas Fuels, Product Development
While oil sands producers have received more than their share of global scrutiny for the carbon intensity of their operations, their peers in the Bakken shale have largely gotten a free pass to date. That’s a curious oversight given the enormous volumes of natural gas that they’re flaring into the air – gas that could be captured and reused rather than simply burned off. But Calgary’s Ferus Natural Gas Fuels, along with Statoil and GE, has developed a solution to that underreported problem. Its Last Mile Fueling Solution, which captures flare gas and uses it to power as many as six of Statoil’s drilling rigs and one of its frack fleets in the region, reduces field emissions (and will help Statoil comply with new flaring regulations) while actually reducing its operating costs.
That’s not the only innovative work that Ferus is up to these days, either. In late October, the company announced the grand opening of the first merchant LNG facility in Canada in Elmworth, Alberta. The facility produces fuel for engines used in drilling rigs, pressure pumping services and water heating as well as heavy-duty highway and off-road trucks in the region. And Ferus continues to pursue other avenues through which to build out a more robust LNG supply chain in North America, one that it hopes will lead to more widespread use of natural gas in a variety of commercial, industrial and consumer applications.
The Innovation Taking the “dirty”, out of dirty oil
The Innovator: Neil Camarta, Exploration and Development
Whether it’s the European Union’s aborted fuel quality directive or the efforts of anti-Keystone protestors to single out oil sands crude, it’s clear that Canadian crude is under attack. These attacks share a common strategy: to effectively de-commoditize oil from various sources by defining them by the emissions attached to extracting them. That’s bad news for oil sands crude, given that it tends to have marginally higher emissions profiles than some of its competing sources of supply. But Neil Camarta, an industry veteran who has run oil sands operations for Shell and Petro-Canada, has a solution that could stop those efforts dead in their tracks: DSU. The acronym stands for desulfurization and upgrading, and it’s a new upgrading process being offered by his new company, Field Upgrading, that he describes as being both simpler and more elegant than existing options.
It involves mixing molten sodium with bitumen, which takes the sulfur, heavy metals and acids out of the oil and yields a pipe-ready product (no diluent needed) with just “a fraction of the hydrogen required in conventional upgrading.” As a result, the company says, its process reduces both operating costs and carbon emissions compared to existing upgrading options. Indeed, according to Camarta, a recent test of a sample of Fort McMurray bitumen which contained five per cent sulfur, 300 ppm of heavy metals, an API under eight and an acid number of five was transformed by the DSU process into a product with 0.1 per cent sulfur content, five ppm of heavy metals and no acid at all. And because it’s fully scalable, it can be deployed in a variety of ways, from on-site upgrading of SAGD production to a full-scale permanent facility.

The Innovation Digital: Drilling rig information
The Innovator: PetroFeed, Strategy and Operations
PetroFeed made some pretty big waves in 2014 with the launch (and subsequent adoption) of an app that allows users to see the real-time status of drilling rigs across the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. Its informative and user-friendly interface made it a hit with users on both Apple and Android platforms, with one iTunes reviewer noting that “Everyone I know in the industry uses this.” In 2015 PetroFeed has already rolled out a new feature (the product of a partnership with operators and major service companies) that will allow users to get directions to well sites. Doing this from a single platform, rather than relying on a mish-mash of Google Map printouts and operator-sourced instructions, will allow companies to get the same set of directions out to everyone who needs them in a timely fashion. PetroFeed believes that this will increase supply chain efficiency and safety by reducing so-called “windshield time” for operators, and it will also allow companies to be more responsive when it comes to changing conditions, be it a road that’s in bad shape or a local farmer who doesn’t want traffic passing close to his home. It remains to be seen whether the app can transition from a free distribution model to a paid one, but its growing popularity among users suggests that’s more likely a question of when than if.

The Innovation: CO2-EOR
The Innovator: Cenovus Energy, Exploration and Development
There are almost no examples of successful CO2-EOR projects in Canada – that is, with the exception of the Weyburn, Saskatchewan, field operated by Cenovus Energy. The company has had its Weyburn project under CO2 floods since 2000. Production peaked at the field in the 1960s at around 50,000 barrels per day, and eventually dropped south of 10,000 by the 1990s. The lack of CO2-EOR projects in Canada is largely due to a shortage of natural carbon deposits; in the U.S., where such deposits are widespread, producers regularly inject CO2 into lackluster wells to stimulate production. But Cenovus managed to cut a deal with a North Dakota company that would pipe CO2 to Weyburn, which soon brought production back up to about 26,000 bpd in 2014. Since this past October, much of that supply of CO2 started coming from the nearby Boundary Dam CCS project, which is the first brown coal-fired power plant ever built with an integrated carbon capture and storage segment. Like many of the other technologies Cenovus adopted early on, other companies are now following suit.

The Innovation: Low-cost CCS
The Innovator: Inventys, The Environment
Carbon dioxide is widely considered the main offender when it comes to greenhouse gases that cause global warming and climate change. And for reasons known only to certain environmental groups, oil and gas producers, despite leading the way in clean-energy investment, take almost all of the heat for it. It’s no wonder then that curbing the amount of CO2 that gets released into the environment whenever fossil fuels are burned is not only an industrial best practice but also the only way forward. Vancouver-based Inventys is both leading the way in Canadian carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) technology and taking the process one step further. In 2011, the company inked a research and development deal with Suncor Energy for trials of its proprietary VeloxoTherm technology for carbon capture, storage and eventual reuse in CO2-enhanced oil recovery. Technically a gas separation system, VeloxoTherm uses what’s called “temperature swing absorption” to capture carbon at the emission source – a flue stack for instance – resulting in a carbon capture cost of US$15 per tonne, or roughly one-third the cost of other post-combustion solutions. That carbon can then be injected underground for storage, or used either down-well for enhanced oil recovery or in chemical manufacturing.
The Innovation: Cutting-edge fluid additives
The Innovator: nFluids, Product Development
Drilling fluids have many jobs, from cooling and lubricating the drill bit to removing cuttings, sealing the wellbore and maintaining hydrostatic pressure to prevent kicks or blowouts, to name just a few. The loss of drilling fluids, while part of the process, is both costly and potentially dangerous. And while there was a time when drillers would chuck graphite, walnut shells and wool down the hole in a slapdash effort to stanch the flow when seepage into or out of the well was detected, today (thanks in large part to nFluids) they have the potential to block seepage using nanoparticles. Incubated at the University of Calgary, nFluids is a private company that has been developing custom fluid additives which should soon provide a safer, greener, more efficient and cost-effective drilling operation. And while other universities and research centers have experimented with adding nanoparticles to drilling fluids, what puts nFluids’s patent-pending technology ahead of the rest is that the company doesn’t use one-size-fits-all nanoparticles off the shelf. Instead it makes them in-house, each set specifically tailored to fit the geology of a specific site. With the average well in Western Canada’s tight oil formations losing between three and five cubic meters of drilling fluid for every 100 meters drilled, that seepage can cost between $30,000 and $80,000 per well, based on average drill depths. If they can prevent even a fraction of that – and previous laboratory tests show their nanoparticle additives can cut fluid loss by as much as 90 per cent – then they’re on to something huge.

The Innovation Wastewater: filtration and purification
The Innovator: Colleen Legzdins, The Environment
As in the wider world, access to clean water is an increasingly important asset in the energy industry. Clean water output is no longer just a favor to the planet but a requirement for doing business that shows up on balance sheets. Treating waste from water-intensive industries like fracking, oil sands mining and SAGD is expensive, labor- and chemical-intensive and, let’s face it, not always reliable. But after cutting her teeth pioneering early-stage hydrogen fuel cells, Axine Water Technologies founder and chief engineer Colleen Legzdins set out to change all that. The result is a quick, low-cost, chemical-free, one-step technology that uses electrochemical oxidation to remove high concentrations of environmental pollutants from industrial wastewater. The cell-based system is modular and scalable, and can “plug in” to any size project without disrupting existing mining or refining processes. The water that comes out isn’t drinkable, but it is reuseable on site in various applications, creating a clean-water loop that industry won’t have to keep going back to the well for.

The Innovation Wastewater: filtration and purification
The Innovator: Sky Hunter, Exploration and Development
Mapping oil and gas plays is nothing new, but doing it from an airplane certainly is. And that’s what Calgary-based Sky Hunter has done by taking seismic to the skies with its proprietary technology that detects and maps micro-seeps in the ground to predict the presence of pressurized hydrocarbon reservoirs. Sky Hunter uses a small aircraft equipped with a “hydrocarbon nose” and other devices that record airborne hydrocarbon intensities and electromagnetic indicators from approximately 100 meters above the ground – or sea or ice. While one data channel measures for dry gas, two others account for rich gas and oil, filtering for vertical micro-seepage only while eliminating the “noise” of random hydrocarbons present in the atmosphere. The process is not only cheaper than traditional seismic surveying, according to the company, but it can survey areas otherwise off-limits to simple seismic sampling, all while leaving the ecosystem – whether onshore or off – undisturbed. With well over 100,000 kilometers of flight test data proving the effectiveness of Sky Hunter’s patent-pending technology, it seems the sky’s the limit for continued innovation in the airborne exploration field.

The Innovation: Building industry-scale wind power
The Innovator: Kent Brown, Strategy and Operations
Clean Energy Canada named him 2014’s Canadian Innovator of the Year. We concur. With $730 million in operating assets expected by the end of 2015 and some key partnerships with First Nations governments, BluEarth and its president and CEO Kent Brown have created a viable renewable energy business in a country – and a city, Calgary – where many said it couldn’t be done. The independent power producer focuses on buying, building and operating wind, hydro and solar projects, with 16 projects now operating or in development across the country from B.C. to Nova Scotia. Brown, a former CEO of Canadian Hydro Developers, has put BluEarth on track to control $1 billion in spinning assets by 2017, despite the company only opening its doors four years ago. This year, BluEarth says it will target approximately $700 million in new acquisitions of development-stage projects and begin construction on a new wind project in Alberta.

The Innovation: Tailings mycore mediation
The Innovator: Kelcie Miller-Anderson, The Environment
Kelcie Miller-Anderson has been experimenting with mushrooms since she was 15 years old. Today, the science-minded Calgary teen has turned that interest into a potentially game-changing approach to remediating oil sands tailings. Miller-Anderson, 20, has shown how tiny white oyster mushrooms grown in tailings samples can quickly and substantially reduce levels of residual petroleum hydrocarbons, naphthenic acids and pH levels and increase sodium absorption in both solid tailings and tailings water. Miller-Anderson began her award-winning research using soybean plants, but, given the harsh climate of northern Alberta, soon switched to the hardier oyster mushroom common to northern British Columbia with equal success. Recently named one of Canada’s Top 20 Under 20, the University of Alberta student is now exploring whether there are other native species of mushroom that could also work. The theory behind tailings mycoremediation – remediation using fungi – is that the underground part of the fungus releases enzymes that break down hydrocarbons and then uses them as sugars to grow. With time on her side and industry looking closely over her shoulder, Miller-Anderson’s research may yet prove among the most cost-effective and environmentally friendly remediation options for tailings producers, both in the oil and gas industry and elsewhere.

The Innovation: Wired drill pipe
The Innovator: Beaver Drilling, Exploration and Development
Everyone and everything seems to be going wireless these days, but there’s at least one company that’s moving in the other direction. Beaver Drilling will be deploying wired drill pipe on one of its rigs in 2015, and the Ethernet-like cable that it plans to use will give its employees real-time analysis of what’s happening at the drill bit. That means they can process the data the drill is sending back and adjust the drilling parameters as needed, improving efficiency and reducing costs by as much as 30 per cent. And while the technology has been used offshore for several years, theirs will be the first time it’s been deployed on a land rig in Canada. In an environment where drilling costs will be scrutinized more closely, that kind of cost-saving improvement should be of interest to just about everyone.

The Innovation: Converting sulfur, into plant fertilizer
The Innovator: Sulvaris, Strategy and Operations
Sulfur is what puts the “sour” in sour gas and is a common waste product of many oil and gas industries, including Alberta’s. What to do with the poisonous pale-yellow powder once extracted from oil and gas has long been a question that’s answered by the chemical manufacturing industry. But last year, Calgary-based Sulvaris began to put shovels in the ground on its first production plant designed to convert sulfur into farm fertilizer. The Alberta facility is on the site of an existing gas plant operated by Keyera, which is a 50-50 partner in the project. The plant is designed to convert sour gas sulfur into 217,000 tonnes per year of a fertilizer the company is calling Vitasul. The product, which addresses the vital sulfur requirements of agricultural soil, will be marketed in the U.S., Canada and Asia. The product not only creates a competitive alternative to other sulfur fertilizers but provides a new value-added market for a Canadian oil and gas byproduct. And that market
is considerable: in 2011 Alberta produced nearly five million tonnes of sulfur (roughly two-thirds from sour gas and one-third from oil sands upgrading and refining), according to the Energy Resources Conservation Board.
The Innovation: Green energy storage
The Innovator: Rocky Mountain Power, The Environment
Renewables, primarily wind, already provide approximately eight per cent of Alberta’s electricity, with two more wind farms planned near Edmonton. But taking the excess power from when the wind really blows in order to save it for when it doesn’t has always been a challenge. Calgary’s Rocky Mountain Power thinks it has found a solution by going underground – literally. By carving out caverns the size of 60-storey skyscrapers in naturally occurring salt layers underneath the Lloydminster area, Rocky Mountain believes it can store enough energy per cavern, in the form of compressed air, to power a town of 100,000 people for five days. But the caverns would be less a source of emergency power than a means of stabilizing the electrical grid by taking excess power off the grid and converting it for storage when the wind is strongest.
The Innovation: Modular SAGD facilities
The Innovator: Oak Point Energy, Exploration and Development
To cut costs in the construction phase of steam-assisted gravity drainage projects, companies are offering increasingly modularized designs for steam generation plants. Oak Point Energy may have taken that trend a step further with its modular SAGD facilities, which it says can be assembled on site in all of 30 days. In 2011, Oak Point Energy bought KemeX, the company which designed the technology, and has plans to install the facilities at various oil sands operations, beginning with its Lewis Steepbank lease. The facilities vary in size, ranging from 1,260 barrels per day capacity to over 21,600 bpd. The economic argument for the pocket-size plants, according to the company, is that they can be constructed almost entirely from fabrication shops, making on-site assembly faster and less laborious. The modular facilities are said to shorten development cycles and use less water than larger, more conventional SAGD plants. As producers pare back their capital expenditure programs, all the while attempting to bring on new barrels, the modular technology, or others like it, is likely to have increased appeal amid low oil prices.

The Innovation: Alternative Fuel Engines
The Innovator: Westport Innovations, Product Development
Anyone who still thinks that alternative-power engines are too wimpy to properly power cars and trucks is likely unfamilar with the work of Westport Innovations. The Vancouver-based company’s compressed natural gas (CNG) engines provide all the torque, power and efficiency of their diesel counterparts and are already powering long-haul trucks, municipal buses and the company has even delivered LNG tenders for a Canadian National Railway test engine. Under the Ford Motor Company’s vehicle modifier program, Westport’s trademarked Westport WiNG Power System has been integrated into several lines of Ford’s lightest- to heaviest-duty pickup trucks and a school bus. The WiNG system is in use by fire departments, construction companies and delivery fleets around the U.S., and will be coming to a town near you – if it isn’t there already.

The Innovation: Clean, Green, High-Efficiency Burners
The Innovator: Absolute Combustion, Product Development
Heat is a “hot” commodity in the oilfield. It’s a basic requirement all the way down the line from extraction to processing to distribution. So it stands to reason that any gains in heating efficiency, no matter how slight, can quickly stack up into real dollars saved. Most fire-tube burners in the oil sands – in separators and treaters, for example – use high-pressure fuels which send flames several feet from the combustion source. That’s not only a potentially dangerous waste of heat, but more flame also means more wear and tear on downstream equipment. So Edmonton-based Absolute Combustion International developed a high-intensity burner that delivers an even and consistent heat, and a near-flameless one to boot. That advanced efficiency means not only lower fuel costs but fewer greenhouse gas emissions. So far, the burner’s applications are targeted towards smaller fire-tube jobs in the three- to five-million Btu range, but down the line the company is considering building more powerful units capable of heating fracking water or producing steam for SAGD extraction.

The Innovation: Advanced Fiber-Optic Leak Detection, in Pipelines
The Innovator: Hifi Engineering, Product Development
A pipeline leak, rupture or spill is the worst-case scenario for pipeline companies and the industry as a whole. Leak detection systems are many and varied, but for all, speed and accuracy of leak location are paramount in mounting an effective response. Calgary-based Hifi has developed a next-generation fiber optic monitoring system that can provide precise acoustic, thermal and vibration data along an entire length of pipe – and do it all simultaneously. Founded in 2007, Hifi first developed its patented technology in the upstream sector, providing drillers and operators acoustic data in more than 1,000 oil and gas wells. The new midstream technology has been refined to locate extremely low-rate leaks and even indications of pipeline strain before a leak occurs. Now, using laser light pulses through glass fiber optic cable, Hifi can “listen” for hairline cracks and even potential problems like land movement or digging near a pipeline. The company’s goal? No less than 100 per cent safe, leak-free pipelines.
The Innovation: SAGD Evaporator
The Innovator: GE Canada, The Environment
By its very nature, SAGD is a water intensive process – for now, at least. But GE Canada has made some impressive progress on reducing the amount of water the average SAGD operation uses thanks in large part to the work of Bill Heins, a chemical engineer who’s spent the last two decades trying to figure out how to minimize water use and maximize the ability to recycle it in a variety of industrial settings. Now a general manager for thermal products at GE Water & Process Technologies, he’s developed a SAGD evaporator that could, at full capacity, purify and recover as much as 98 per cent of the water used in a given SAGD operation. His invention also requires far less energy to heat the water than a comparable evaporator. As a result, one of GE’s evaporators could save as much as 500 million gallons of fresh water per year. If you scale that up to the number of SAGD operations in the province today, the number climbs easily into the billions of gallons. For a province that’s already staring at potential water shortages in the near future, that would be a major – maybe even transformative – difference.

The Innovation: The Super Pad
The Innovator: Seven Generations Energy, Strategy and Operations
Despite being a relatively young company – or, perhaps, because of it – Seven Generations Energy has earned a reputation for being one of the most innovative companies in Albera. And while it stands out for its willingness to experiment with different combinations of drilling techniques, muds, completion techniques and well spacing and placements in an effort to maximize production and minimize costs, it’s the so-called Super Pads that it’s developed and deployed that are the real eyeopener. Each pad acts like a mini gas plant, with compression, dehydration and fluid-catching facilities on site that can perform a three-phase separation of the gas that’s drilled underneath them. At capacity, each pad is designed to handle 50,000 mcf of gas and 10,000 barrels of condensate per day, which it can then deliver to a central facility. And because they have the compression facilities on site, each length of pipe can handle more gas. All told, each pad adds to the company’s overall operational efficiency – no small consideration in a company that’s looking to grow as quickly as Seven Generations.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 50.425.179 von sdaktien am 18.08.15 14:10:02
wenn Du auf die Namen gehst
"ING DIRECT is aiming to become their customers’ main financial institution. Their secondary bank heritage means that the majority of ING DIRECT customers only hold a savings or home loan product, and do not consider ING DIRECT as an option for their broader banking needs. ING DIRECT recognized that an everyday transaction account is the core financial product for the vast majority of Australians, therefore increasing Orange Everyday transaction accounts was the key to their goal of becoming their customers’ primary bank.
In 2014, we created a new customer proposition to encourage new and existing customers to switch their everyday banking to ING DIRECT. In an industry first, introductory rates were abolished on the Savings Maximiser product. It was replaced with a new proposition based around ongoing customer loyalty. Customers who use ING DIRECT as their main financial institution receive an ongoing bonus interest rate on their savings (to earn one of the highest rates in market) when they transfer their salary into their Orange Everyday account. This new proposition helps to give customers peace of mind, knowing that they are getting a great deal that isn’t simply for a limited introductory new customer phase. As an additional reward, Orange Everyday customers who deposit their salary into their account each month have free access to every ATM in Australia, irrespective of the amount they are withdrawing.
These innovations have had significant impacts including: a threefold increase in the number of customers opening an Orange Everyday product; 65 per cent growth in the past 12 months of customers who now use ING DIRECT as their core financial institution; and a market-leading Net Promoter score for Primary Bank customers of over 40. Furthermore, the level of competition for everyday banking products in the Australian market has thus increased, providing greater options and enhanced value for all Australian consumers. "

The 'Next Innovation From Israel, @the StartUp Open IL Competition' - W: 0/PRNW/SUOIC/GEN/GWE50, TEL AVIV - Sep 10, 2015
www.wallstreet-online.de/nachricht/7938005-the-next-innovati…
"StartUp Open was originally launched as part of the Kauffman Foundation in 2010 and is part of Global Entrepreneurship Network. It is one of the world's largest competitions for startup companies, boosting participation from over 60 countries.
StartUp Open welcomes entrepreneurs from all over the world to share their business skills and gain global exposure to help start-ups develop their ideas.
The Israeli winner of the competition, Lishtot, was one of the six finalist companies, and will automatically enter the list of the World's Top 50 Most Promising Startups, also known as the GEW50 . There it will compete on the global package of the competition prizes. It will also receive a business and strategic Consulting and get the opportunity to present its products to the international community during Global Entrepreneurship week in November 2015
Lishtot has developed a technology for water testing, which answers the question "to drink or not to drink?" on the spot. Lishtot technology detects bacteria, heavy metals, pesticides, etc. and the complete test takes only 2 seconds to complete. Lishtot products will not only save lives in developing countries, but they will help people in developed countries live safer as well. Today, there are many situations where people in the developed world have been told to boil their water, but the "boil water notice" is usually announced about 36 hours after the water has been identified as contaminated. Another 24 hours may pass after water is safe to drink until bacterial plates confirm the same. Lishtot's technology will help those people to bridge the gaps and will give individuals the ability to test their water by themselves.
The second place winners were SmartLogic, which has developed a product for "listening" to machines and predicting future failures.
The Third place winners were InnerEye, a visual target detection capabilities by combining the human brain and computer vision.
StartUp Open main supporters in Israel include: Global Entrepreneurship Network Israel, Barnea & Co Law firm, The Jerusalem Development Authority, JNext, The Jerusalem Municipality, The MIT Enterprise Forum - Israel, Israel advanced technology industries, and more.
The final competition was held at the Hansen center in Jerusalem, in the presence of investment entities, startups, high-tech executives and an interested audience.
The jury of the competition included: Managing Partner from Barnea & Co; Michael Barnea, Chairperson of Global Entrepreneurship Week of Israel; Ayla Matalon, Manager of the Hi-Tech Entrepreneurship project at the Jerusalem Development Authority; Stav Erez, Head of the Asper Centre for Entrepreneurship; Professor Niron Hashai, CEO of Algomizer Ltd; Noam Band, Co-Founder of Gilat Satellite Networks; Joshua Levinberg, Founder and CEO of Continuity Software; Gil Hecht , CEO of Pilat Media; Avi Engel,and Partner at AfterDox; Micki Scheinbach.
According to Ayla Matalon , Chairperson, Global Entrepreneurship Network Israel: "After having conquered the worlds with "Breezometer" in 2014, Startup Open 2015 judging committee elected "Lishtot", which is developing a personal water safety device that can be deployed in a café in Paris or along a river in India, and answers the question "to drink or not to drink? Within seconds of testing."
Additionally, Michael Barnea, Managing Partner from Barnea & Co, said: "Entrepreneurship forms the basis of our local technology industry, which plays an important role in the Israeli economy. We are in an era in which support in the initial stages of a company's endeavors is unprecedented, including the activities of many accelerators operating in Israel. However, there is still a significant lack of spheres of support for the next steps that need seed funding. Competitions like Startup Open provide a boost, opportunities and exposure for the successful companies among the participants. We are delighted to accompany this event for the 2nd time and support the community of Israeli entrepreneurship."

About the EuropaBio Most Innovative European Biotech SME Awards
According to the European Commission, “small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the backbone of Europe's economy. They represent 90% of all businesses in the EU. In the past five years, they have created around 85% of new jobs and provided two-thirds of the total private sector employment in the EU.”[1] In other words, SME matter and the leaders in innovation should be recognized and rewarded.
Since their launch in 2010, the annual Most Innovative European Biotech SME Awards recognise exceptional small and medium-sized companies in Europe that have developed novel ways of meeting our societal, technical, and environmental problems through the application of biotechnology.
About the EuropaBio Benefits of Biotechnology Event
Over the past few years, the biotech industry has focused on the need to contribute to increasing society’s understanding of the solutions and benefits that are offered via the application of biotechnology. In addition to EuropaBio’s annual editions of European Biotech Week (www.biotechweek.org) with more than 100 events and activities across Europe, the Benefits of Biotech Event aims to give a snapshot of the significance and importance of biotech today in relation to the grand challenges we face in Europe and the Union’s agenda of Growth and Jobs.

The company has partnered with PharmaEngine for clinical development and commercialization of NBTXR3 in Asia. Nanobiotix is listed on the regulated market of Euronext in Paris. The company, based in Paris, France, opened an affiliate office in the US Boston area in September 2014.
MolMed S.p.A. is an Italian healthcare biotechnology company, focused on oncology and genetic orphan diseases, with two products in late clinical development stage addressing large unmet medical needs. MolMed is listed on the Milan Stock Exchange since 2008 and is positioned as a worldwide recognized leading company in the booming field of cell & gene therapies. Its unique technological platform in this space is exploited for the progress of company’s proprietary programs as well as for projects performed in collaboration with third parties.
Based in the UK, Redx Pharma is focused on the development of proprietary, small molecule therapeutics to address areas of high, unmet medical need, principally in cancer and infection and immunology. By improving the characteristics of existing drug classes to create highly differentiated, novel, best-in-class drugs, Redx has already established a portfolio of 13 proprietary, drug programs. Five programs have achieved pre-clinical proof of concept, with relevance for respective therapies to treat MRSA, and solid and liquid tumours.
Industrial or White Biotech Category
Svanvid is a Polish biotech company engaged in the production of active - and at the same time - natural substances, which are applicable in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. It has elaborated methods for the production of ultraclean, natural and innovative products based on research in microalgae cultivation.
The internationally acclaimed Celtic Renewables Ltd is widely regarded as one of the most innovative new renewables companies in the UK, producing environmentally and commercially sustainable “drop-in” advanced biofuel (biobutanol) from the copious residues of one of Scotland’s most important industries - the £4-billion malt whisky industry (each year 2 billion litres of liquid effluent and 750,000 tonnes of barley residue is generated) - not only providing a sustainable disposal route for the by-products of one of the UK’s largest and most iconic industries, but also integrating renewable energy production with environmental sustainability and carbon reduction, by producing sustainable biobutanol as a direct replacement for fossil road fuel.
No applications received in the Agricultural or Green Biotech Category
Sadly, as in previous years, there have been no applications from agricultural biotech SMEs in Europe. EuropaBio considers this to be a symptom of Europe’s hostile and unpredictable regulatory and policy environment for companies operating in this sector.

In his opening address, EU Commissioner Andriukaitis noted that ‘I would like to restate the European Commission’s strong interest and fundamental support for what the biotech sector has to offer, namely benefits for people, the economy, and sustainability’.
The event concluded with the unveiling of the winners of the 2015 Most Innovative European Biotech SMEs Awards: MolMed S.p.A. for the healthcare category and Celtic Renewables Ltd for the industrial biotechnology category. In his introduction to the 6th edition of the annual SME Awards, Commissioner Moedas underlined how ‘We need to have a healthy disregard for the impossible in order to make truly great leaps in innovation. All the winners and finalists of this year’s EuropaBio Most Innovative European Biotech Awards undoubtedly share that healthy disregard for the impossible, and it has been inspirational for me to play a small part in these awards’.
The winner in the Healthcare Biotech Category sponsored by the Deerfield Management Company*, MolMed S.p.A. is an Italian healthcare biotechnology company, focused on oncology and genetic orphan diseases, with two products in late clinical development stage addressing large unmet medical needs. MolMed is listed on the Milan Stock Exchange since 2008 and is positioned as a worldwide recognized leading company in the booming field of cell & gene therapies. Its unique technological platform in this space is exploited for the progress of company’s proprietary programs as well as for projects performed in collaboration with third parties.
The winner in the Industrial Biotech Category, the internationally acclaimed Celtic Renewables Ltd is widely regarded as one of the most innovative new renewables companies in the UK, producing environmentally and commercially sustainable “drop-in” advanced biofuel (biobutanol) from the copious residues of one of Scotland’s most important industries - the £4-billion malt whisky industry (each year 2 billion litres of liquid effluent and 750,000 tonnes of barley residue is generated) - not only providing a sustainable disposal route for the by-products of one of the UK’s largest and most iconic industries, but also integrating renewable energy production with environmental sustainability and carbon reduction, by producing sustainable biobutanol as a direct replacement for fossil road fuel.

About the EuropaBio Most Innovative European Biotech SME Awards
According to the European Commission, “small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the backbone of Europe's economy. They represent 90% of all businesses in the EU. In the past five years, they have created around 85% of new jobs and provided two-thirds of the total private sector employment in the EU.”[1] In other words, SME matter and the leaders in innovation should be recognized and rewarded.
Since their launch in 2010, the annual Most Innovative European Biotech SME Awards recognise exceptional small and medium-sized companies in Europe that have developed novel ways of meeting our societal, technical, and environmental problems through the application of biotechnology.
About the EuropaBio Benefits of Biotechnology Event
Over the past few years, the biotech industry has focused on the need to contribute to increasing society’s understanding of the solutions and benefits that are offered via the application of biotechnology. In addition to EuropaBio’s annual editions of European Biotech Week (www.biotechweek.org) with more than 100 events and activities across Europe, the Benefits of Biotech Event aims to give a snapshot of the significance and importance of biotech today in relation to the grand challenges we face in Europe and the Union’s agenda of Growth and Jobs.

MolMed S.p.A. is an Italian healthcare biotechnology company, focused on oncology and genetic orphan diseases, with two products in late clinical development stage addressing large unmet medical needs. MolMed is listed on the Milan Stock Exchange since 2008 and is positioned as a worldwide recognized leading company in the booming field of cell & gene therapies.

Industrial or White Biotech Category
Svanvid is a Polish biotech company engaged in the production of active - and at the same time - natural substances, which are applicable in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. It has elaborated methods for the production of ultraclean, natural and innovative products based on research in microalgae cultivation.
The internationally acclaimed Celtic Renewables Ltd is widely regarded as one of the most innovative new renewables companies in the UK, producing environmentally and commercially sustainable “drop-in” advanced biofuel (biobutanol) from the copious residues of one of Scotland’s most important industries - the £4-billion malt whisky industry (each year 2 billion litres of liquid effluent and 750,000 tonnes of barley residue is generated) - not only providing a sustainable disposal route for the by-products of one of the UK’s largest and most iconic industries, but also integrating renewable energy production with environmental sustainability and carbon reduction, by producing sustainable biobutanol as a direct replacement for fossil road fuel.
No applications received in the Agricultural or Green Biotech Category
Sadly, as in previous years, there have been no applications from agricultural biotech SMEs in Europe. EuropaBio considers this to be a symptom of Europe’s hostile and unpredictable regulatory and policy environment for companies operating in this sector.

Aquanos Wins Coveted Cleanvest Cup, @Watec Israel Conference, Top Israeli Wastewater Firm in the Leading Country for Water Technology, Globally - W: 0/PRNW, TEL AVIV - Oct 19, 2015
www.wallstreet-online.de/nachricht/8038314-aquanos-wins-cove…
"Aquanos, the Israeli water-tech company spearheading energy efficient wastewater purification, won the Cleanvest Cup award for best innovative company at the 2015 Watec Israel conference.
The prestigious event, taking place from October 13-15, 2015 in Tel Aviv, has brought together technology companies of all stripes in the water technology and environmental control sectors. The grand prize is a sponsored trip to Beijing, China in January, 2016 to help Aquanos continue to grow and expand in the Asian market.
Aquanos' first-of-its-kind technology tackles two of the world's most pressing challenges: clean water and clean energy. Its microalgae-based system is capable of delivering high-grade effluent while using up to 90% less energy compared with conventional aerobic wastewater treatment plants. The Aquanos wastewater treatment plant produces biogas, making it a net-energy positive facility, and its algae can be harvested to produce valuable by-products such as fertilizers and bioplastics.
The conference is teeming with delegations from the Southwestern United States, eager to find solutions for their drought and inefficient use of their water supply. Israel recycles upwards of 80% of its water and wastewater and states like California are working to emulate this. Due to increased publicity from the award, Aquanos is seeing substantial interest in its technology from this region as a low-cost way to build wastewater treatment capacity to produce clean water for agricultural uses.
"Our novel approach represents a paradigm shift in the business model of wastewater treatment," remarked Udi Leshem, Aquanos founder and CEO. "We are offering both developing and developed nations an opportunity to generate income from what is currently a costly and energy intensive process," he continued.
Founded in 2011 and completing four years of intensive R&D, Aquanos now has contracts to install its unique wastewater treatment systems across Africa, Asia, North America and Israel. In May, 2015, Aquanos was featured at a Global Entrepreneurs' event at the White House with President Obama. In December 2014, Aquanos was one of four winners in the Tel Aviv Challenge Cup, a competition organized by US-based accelerator 1776, covering 16 global cities in search of the world's most promising start-ups.
Aquanos International is part of Fortuna-Holdings B.V., a Netherlands based financial group that facilitates large-scale infrastructure transactions in the areas of Water Treatment, Energy Production and Transport.

CylancePROTECT - Receives the 'Orange County Tech Alliance High-Tech Innovation Award', for Cybersecurity, IRVINE - Octt 20, 2015
http://cylance.com/company/news/press-release-31.shtml
https://scawards.secure-platform.com/a/
"Cylance, the company that is revolutionizing cybersecurity with products and services that proactively prevent, rather than just reactively detect advanced persistent threats and malware, today announced that its enterprise endpoint security solution, CylancePROTECT, is the 2015 recipient of the Orange County Tech Alliance High-Tech Innovation Award for Cybersecurity.
CylancePROTECT uses a radically different technological approach to cybersecurity that prevents over 99.9% of advanced threats and malware from ever executing in real-world situations where traditional endpoint anti-virus and detect and respond solutions typically fail to even detect 50%. CylancePROTECT employs artificial intelligence to analyze the DNA of code prior to its execution on the endpoint to determine what is safe and what isn't, neutralizing malicious files before they can do harm. It provides superior protection without requiring a constant cloud connection or frequent updates, all while using a fraction of the system resources associated with endpoint security solutions in wide use today.
"We're pleased to recognize Cylance and the other finalists in the Cybersecurity category for the 2015 High-Tech Awards ceremony," said Peter Craig, CEO, Orange County Technology Alliance. "With 45 finalists, every one of our award categories was extremely competitive and I congratulate all of them for their innovation. This was not an easy choice for our judges and we especially congratulate Cylance for the outstanding innovation of CylancePROTECT that earned them this year's award."
"Innovation is important to keeping any business or industry successful, but it is critically important in the cybersecurity industry because our cyber-adversaries are well funded, very determined, and themselves highly innovative," said Stuart McClure, Chief Executive Officer of Cylance. "The 2015 OCTA Cybersecurity Award is yet another industry recognition of how truly innovative our artificial intelligence-based and preventative approach to cybersecurity is technologically, as well as how much more effectively it protects enterprises from falling victim to ever-escalating cyber-threats."
Cylance is a privately owned company, headquartered in Irvine that employs over 200 people there across all corporate functions.
"Outstanding innovators and companies, such as Cylance, represent the finest of Orange County. Our tech community has a bright and exciting future," added Craig.

CNS Response - Wins Platinum Innovations, in Healthcare, Award - Oct 22, 2015
http://globenewswire.com/news-release/2015/10/22/779271/0/en…
"ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Oct. 22, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CNS Response (OTCQB:CNSO) won the Platinum Innovations in Healthcaresm Award by the Adaptive Business Leaders Organization (ABL), a healthcare CEO organization focused on growing great companies. The ABBY awards, held yesterday in Long Beach, CA, recognize the most innovative national firms that improve the delivery and quality of healthcare, while lowering its cost.
“CNS Response addresses a major health issue for a significant portion of our population who wrestle with mental health issues,” said ABL President Mimi Grant. “CNS’ PEER Online solution impressed the judges on ABL’s Finalists Selection Committee that it was not only innovative, but has significant clinical and financial metrics that prove their service is reducing the cost of providing quality care. INCREASINGLY, IT WILL BE INNOVATIVE COMPANIES,LIKE CNS RESPONSE,THAT WILL NOT ONLY WIN ABBY AWARDS, BUT WILL BE BIG WINNERS AS THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY SHIFTS FROM ‘VOLUME TO VALUE’”
The finalist event was held before a live audience of CEO’s, ABL members and supporters. ABBY Award Winners were chosen by secret ballot following live presentations made by the chief executives of the nine Finalist organizations. This is CEO George Carpenter’s 2nd ABBY award. He previously won the Platinum Award for Workwell Systems in 2004.
“The ABBY award is a win for the more than 10,000 patients and their doctors who contributed their outcomes data to help others receive more targeted therapy for mental health illnesses,” said Chairman of the Board Dr. Robin Smith.
About CNS Response Inc.
CNS Response (www.cnsresponse.com) provides a unique set of reference data and analytic tools for clinicians and researchers in psychiatry. While treatment for mental disorders has doubled in the last 20 years, it is estimated that 17 million Americans have failed two or more medication therapies for their mental disorders. The Company’s Psychiatric EEG Evaluation Registry, or PEER Online, is a new registry and reporting platform that allows medical professionals to exchange treatment outcome data for patients referenced to objective neurophysiology data obtained through a standard electroencephalogram (EEG). Based on the company’s original physician-developed database, there are now more than 38,000 outcomes for over 10,000 unique patients in the PEER registry. The objective of PEER Online is to reduce trial and error pharmacotherapy, which is the dominant approach for treatment resistant patients.

“Fierce 15” Biotech Companies of 2014, some familiar faces are driving many of this year's Fierce 15 biotechs - FB - Sep 22, 2014
www.fiercebiotech.com/special-reports/fiercebiotechs-2014-fi…
"A few things struck us while gathering this year's class of the Fierce 15, our 12th annual take on some of the most noteworthy private biotech upstarts making headway these days.
First, you'll find a higher than usual accumulation of early-stage companies in the group. And it's not hard to see why. Once the IPO window opened in early 2013, we saw a whole slew of earlier winners jump through--many like bluebird ($BLUE) and Agios ($AGIO) winning some extraordinary returns for investors. By the end of last year we were beginning to see plenty of other newcomers make the move as well, definitely winnowing out the number of more advanced companies to select from.
So here's the other kicker: These new companies are getting started with what I call the biotech redux generation, very experienced executives who were able to take advantage of the most recent wave of acquisitions to make a deal and are now coming back to start new companies like Editas (Avila's Katrine Bosley) and Cidara (Jeff Stein). Experienced drug developers with some excellent contacts in both the scientific world as well as the venture crowd make for some of the savviest new players in the business.
This year we're also seeing some new technologies at the forefront, with gene therapy making a big mark alongside CAR-T and TCRs. Immuno-oncology in general represents a major portion of this year's report, and we're including one potential breakout on the cancer vaccine side, which just may have figured out how to beat the odds that have scuttled so many of its predecessors.
Or not. High rewards come to those willing to take high risks, and few industries score as high on the risk scale as biotech. Smart money, proven executives and great science may improve the odds, but they can't eliminate the cloud of uncertainty that surrounds every early-stage, and most late-stage, treatments. All we can say is that if any of these biotechs don't make it in the end, it will be a disappointment. They are all aiming at big targets--not a me-too in the mix. And their success would spell a better world for patients.
Finally, I'd say that the science behind drug development is perhaps more clearly defined in this year's class than ever before. Every entrepreneur now understands just how important it is to have the right lab behind the company. That kind of scientific credibility is at the heart of many success stories. And as more scientists get bitten by the biotech bug, I'd be willing to wager that you'll see many of them come back to launch more new companies in years to come.
Like last year, all of this year's winners were selected by myself and News Editor Damian Garde, who shares the workload on FierceBiotech. -- John Carroll (email | Twitter)

'15 ACES finalists announced, four spin-outs, from Norway, Sweden +France, will go through to final awards competition, in Barcelona, on 20 Nov '15 - SB/ACES - Oct 29, 2015

http://sciencebusiness.net/eventsarchive/InnovationConnectio…
"The four finalists chosen by a selection of innovation experts to compete for first prize in the 2015 Academic Enterprise Awards (ACES) are Seram Coating (Norwegian University of Science and Technology), Neosense Technologies (KTH Royal Institute of Technology), CAILabs and Pep-Therapy (both Pierre-and-Marie-Curie University).
The finalists will present their three-minute ‘elevator-pitches’ on 20 November 2015 at the 2015 Science|Business annual summit in Barcelona, where leaders from research, industry and policy will debate how best unleash Europe’s technological potential. The ACES awards programme, running since 2008, is the only pan-European contest for university spin-out companies.
Finalists
Norway’s Seram Coatings claims it is the first in the world to have developed an anti-corrosion and wear-resistant coating based on silicon carbide, one of the world´s hardest compounds. Because this material has no melting point, it has not previously been possible to use it for coating. The company expects its spray, which should be able to withstand fierce heat or high doses of radiation, will replace coatings made of chrome and tungsten carbide.
Sweden’s Neosense Technologies has developed a sensor with monitoring systems that keeps tabs on the blood oxygen levels and temperature of preterm infants. The company claims its system can reduce mortality and morbidity for pre-term babies at risk of developing lifelong disorders due to impaired oxygen therapy. Oxygen supply for premature new-borns needs to be tightly controlled: if levels are too high there is a risk of eye damage, even blindness, if too low there is a risk of permanent damage to the brain and other organs. The developers estimate a market of 50,000 patients across Europe and calculate that a reduction of minor and major disabilities by 10 per cent would save health systems €4 billion a year.
France’s CAILabs uses ‘multi-plane light conversion’ technologies, protected by three patent families, to design optical components that manipulate the shape of coherent light, allowing optical fibres using the technology to carry more data. With its technology, CAILabs helped Japan’s KDDI, the country’s second biggest telecoms firm, break the world record for fibre capacity, as reported this year.
France’s other finalist, Pep-Therapy, is developing drugs based on peptides – protein fragments that are small enough to get through the cell wall and lock onto intracellular targets, blocking the effects of cancer-promoting enzymes. The first product, DPT-PEP1, targets the caspase-9/PP2 pathway, which is implicated in the development of breast, lung and ovary cancers. DPT-PEP1 consists of two sequences, a shuttle to deliver the drug into cancer cells and a second to block the target protein. Preclinical results support the initial clinical development of DPT-PEP1 in triple-negative breast, lung and ovary cancers, uveal melanoma (orphan disease) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Two further products are in preclinical development.
Whaaaaat are the ACES?
The ACES is a programme created in 2008 to celebrate spin-outs from universities and public research institutes in Europe. Since then, more than 150 companies across the EU have been recognised for excellence, and several have gone on to success in growing sales, adding investment or finding new corporate partners and buyers. For past winners of ACES, see here
Science|Business, a media and communications company that runs the ACES awards, manages a network of 42 universities, companies and public-sector organisations focused on research and innovation.
In its 7th edition, ACES 2015 was open to individuals who have created a promising spin-out, created after 1 June 2013 and based on ideas developed at European universities. Each member of the Science|Business Network was invited to nominate two candidates for this ‘fast-start’ ACES award. This year there were 20 entries.
The finalists were chosen , by three panels of spin-out experts, from university tech-transfer offices, companies and investment firms specialised in ICT, medtech and engineering/materials. Judges will look at the progress the four finalists accomplished during the first two years of their existence, with particular focus on:
- Novelty: what makes the company unique?
- Business development and market potential production, marketing, and sales
- Fundraising strategy
- Expected impact on society
- Looking forward –growth targets, foreseen in five years

'Global Awards '15' - IChemE - Nov15
www.icheme.org/media_centre/news/2015/low%20impact%20frackin…
"Public concern over the environmental impact of shale gas extraction is driving innovation amongst chemical engineers searching for ways to improve the hydraulic fracturing process. A novel fracturing fluid designed to make fracking greener was named the overall winner at the Institution of Chemical Engineer’s (IChemE) Global Awards 2015 in Birmingham, UK, last night.
Researchers based at[b] Pacific Northwest National Laboratory[/b] in Richland Washington, US, have come up with a new fluid, which significantly reduces the pumping pressures required to stimulate shale gas production. Their work was chosen by judges from a list of over 100 shortlisted entries.
The Pacific Northwest team had triumphed earlier in the evening by seeing off stiff competition from global names including PETRONAS and Costain to pick up the Oil & Gas Award. They then went on to win the night’s blue riband Award for Outstanding Achievement in Chemical and Process Engineering.
It was a successful night all round for entries from the USA. Lehigh Technologies claimed the Sustainable Technology Award for their micronized powder manufactured from used industrial rubber. Ohio State University claimed the Water Management and Supply Award, and California based lubricants producer, Novvi, were presented with the Best Business Start-Up Award – a new category for 2015.
Individual winners on the night included Worley Parson’s Christopher Jansen, who was named best Young Chemical Engineer in Industry. He narrowly beat Malaysian winner Ezmal b Ab Rashid, and James Perrin from New Zealand’s Lion brewery.
Dr Ho Wai Shin was presented with the global award for best Young Chemical Engineer in Research. The Universiti Teknologi Malaysia lecturer also won in the same category at last week’s IChemE Malaysia Awards.
Stuart Campbell triumphed in the Industry Leader category. A new category, the award is presented to an individual who has demonstrated exceptional leadership and motivational skills in the chemical engineering profession. Stuart is a project director at Costain who also won the Industry Project of the Year Award.
Higher education in the UK was well represented with three out of 16 awards taken home by UK Universities. The Sir Joseph Swan Centre for Energy Research in Newcastle was presented with the Dhirubhai Ambani Award for Outstanding Chemical Engineering Innovation for the Resource-Poor. Their novel technology uses waste heat for drying, chilling and preserving foods.
The University of Liverpool picked up the Energy Award, for their solar power project. Cardiff University took the Innovative Product of the Year prize – a joint win with Johnson Matthey for their work with gold catalysts. And the Cork Institute of Technology, walked away with the Education and Training Award, for their project with Pfizer Ireland.
Other winners during the evening included a team from Lion’s Auckland brewery ‘The Pride’ who claimed the Food and Drink Award, for their sustainability credentials. Laurentian University in Canada took home the Research Project of the Year Award. Senscient, GexCon and Suncor Energy collected the Process Safety Award for their joint collaboration on laser-based alarm sensors.
IChemE’s president, Andrew Jamieson, extended his congratulations to the winners and he said: “IChemE is a truly international institution and tonight’s diverse range of winners from industry and academia is a compelling illustration of our commitment to recognise and advance chemical engineering worldwide."
The IChemE Global Awards, held in partnership with Aramco, celebrate and recognise excellence in chemical engineering worldwide. This year’s awards show was hosted by BBC business journalist, Steph McGovern, at the Hilton Metropole, Birmingham, UK on 5 November 2015.
Official winners of the IChemE Global Awards 2015
Award for Outstanding Achievement in Chemical and Process Engineering sponsored by Aramco
Winner: 'Making fracking greener', Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, USA

Winner: Novvi LLC, USA
Summary of winning entry: Novvi has developed targeted hydrocarbon molecules from plant sugar. The technology has met both the environmental and performance criteria in the lubricants industry, at a competitive cost. Novvi’s product also offers an opportunity for biochemical’s to directly replace petroleum without compromise.
Food and Drink Award sponsored by PM Group
Winner: 'The Pride – Sustainability', Lion – Beer, Spirits, & Wine (NZ) Ltd, NZ
Summary of winning entry: Lion's Auckland brewery uses a process to continuously improve in the areas of energy, water, and waste reduction. Projects in 2014 resulted in approximately 9,600 GJ/y sustained energy reduction, and 80m l/y sustained water reduction.
Innovative Product of the Year Award sponsored by AstraZeneca
Winner: 'Gold catalysts for VCM production', Johnson Matthey; Cardiff University, UK
Summary of winning entry: Vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) is a major chemical used to produce polyvinyl chloride. The manufacturing process through hydro-chlorination of acetylene using mercuric chloride, supported on a carbon catalyst, is non-sustainable. Cardiff University and Johnson Matthey have designed and commercialised a new gold catalyst, which is non-polluting and has improved performance.
Young Chemical Engineer in Industry Award sponsored by GSK
Winner: Christopher Jansen, WorleyParsons, Australia
Summary of winning entry: Chris Jansen is a Chartered Chemical Engineer with experience in oil and gas, engineering services and wastewater treatment. He won the 2014 IChemE Global Process Safety Award, presented a paper at Hazards Australasia 2015, facilitated a HAZOP for Santos GLNG and won seed funding from the Worley Parsons Innovation Council to develop his idea that could revolutionise confined space safety during unit turnarounds.
Young Chemical Engineer in Research Award sponsored by ExxonMobil
Winner: Ho Wai Shin, University Teknologi Malaysia, Malaysia

"LONDON, March 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- CleanEquity® Monaco 2016, hosted by Innovator Capital and the Monaco Economic Board, closed on Friday 4th March with its traditional awards ceremony and address by event co-founder His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco.
CleanEquity showcased 27 world relevant, disruptive technologies sourced using a tried and tested process run by London based investment bank, Innovator Capital, with help from its international partners in Asia, Europe, Australasia, North America and South America.
His Serene Highness conferred with the expert panel of judges, which selected the following companies for the CleanEquity Monaco 2016 Awards for Excellence:
Lightbridge Corp. (USA) (NASDAQ: LTBR) received the award for Technology Research; the company is developing and commercialising an innovative, alternative nuclear fuel technology, which will improve significantly the economics and safety of existing and new reactors - potentially a huge contributor to low carbon energy generation.
Desolenator (UK) received the award for Technology Development; the company has developed and patented a highly affordable and environmentally friendly method of water purification.
Drayson Technologies (UK) received the award for Technology Commercialisation; the company has launched an app and a device. The app, CleanSpace™, allows consumers to accumulate CleanSpace™ miles and the device, which is integrated with the app, is a personal air quality sensor. Visit our.clean.space.com to find out more.
The runners up were Vantage Power (UK) for commercialisation, Flash Bainite (USA) for development and Corrosion Radar (UK) for research.
His Serene Highness said in His address:
"I want to thank each of you for coming to the conference. For sharing your vision and committing to being part of the solution. We must all do what we can, both individually and collectively, to create, develop and implement political and practical solutions to the very considerable problems that we face.
"This conference is very much a "family affair" – run by a young team who remind us that the work we are engaged upon is vitally important to preserve and improve the environment that they and their children will be inheriting."
Mungo Park, Chairman of Innovator Capital and co-founder of CleanEquity Monaco, said:
"We thank His Serene Highness for His continued support for this event. Technology innovation is still not adequately recognised as an essential part of the solution to the problems we are all trying to fix but by all accounts, this year, we had greater numbers of quality investors than in prior years. I am proud of this achievement.
"My thanks go also to Covington & Burling, Parkview Group, Deloitte, PR Newswire, Cranfield University, INNEON, Gillamor Stephens, Enereau, the Oceanographic Museum of Monaco, the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, Monaco Economic Board and the Société des Bains de Mer de Monaco."

World Economic Forum Names GlassPoint Solar Technology Pioneer 2016
------> http://widgets.weforum.org/techpioneers-2016/
"GlassPoint Solar, the leading supplier of solar to the oil and gas industry, today announced it was named as one of the World Economic Forum’s Technology Pioneers, a selection of the world’s most innovative companies. GlassPoint was selected by an expert committee for its development of a solar energy solution that delivers low-cost steam used to produce crude oil more sustainably and economically.
“It is an honor to be recognized and included alongside some of the most innovative companies in the world. This recognition further substantiates the increasing convergence between traditional and renewable energy. Our solar technology was specifically designed to meet the needs of one of the world’s largest consumers of energy—the oil and gas industry itself,” said GlassPoint President and Chief Executive Rod MacGregor. “By integrating alternative energy and traditional energy, the world can benefit from substantial carbon savings while deploying renewable energy at unprecedented scale.”
The World Economic Forum’s Technology Pioneers program was started in 2000 to recognize global companies that can significantly impact business and society through new technologies. GlassPoint was selected from among hundreds of candidates to join a special group of companies with transformative solutions across the IT, health, energy, environment, food and financial services sectors. Previous recipients of the honor include Google, Twitter, SoundCloud and Airbnb.
Technology Pioneers will also participate in the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2017 in Davos-Klosters, Switzerland.
Fulvia Montresor, Head of Technology Pioneers at the World Economic Forum, said, “We welcome GlassPoint to this extraordinary group of pioneers. They are among a list of companies that are helping to shape the Fourth Industrial Revolution, a technological revolution that will fundamentally alter the way we live, work and relate to one another. Through the platform of the World Economic Forum, they will be able to scale and share their technology in order to achieve a larger impact.”
The company’s solar steam generators harness sunlight to produce steam for the process of extracting heavy oil, replacing natural gas typically burned to generate steam. GlassPoint’s solar oilfield projects are unlocking a tremendous opportunity to deploy solar energy in the global oil and gas industry.
GlassPoint is one of the fastest-growing solar companies in history. In the past five years, GlassPoint has gone from commissioning the world’s first commercial solar enhanced oil recovery (EOR) project to building one of the largest solar projects of any kind. Last year, GlassPoint partnered with Petroleum Development Oman (PDO), the largest producer of oil and gas in Oman, to build Miraah, which will generate in excess of one gigawatt of solar thermal energy.
Once complete, Miraah reduce emissions by 300,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) each year, the equivalent of removing 63,000 cars from the road. The project will generate 6,000 tons of solar steam each day for oil production, saving 5.6 trillion British Thermal units (BTUs) of natural gas each year. The gas saved can instead be exported as liquefied natural gas (LNG), used for power generation or redirected to the private sector to power new industries and create jobs.
GlassPoint’s unique enclosed trough technology enables the use of lightweight, readily available materials that are a fraction of the cost of alternative technologies. The company’s proven technology demonstrates the massive opportunity for the traditional and renewable energy industries to work together and develop economically viable solutions to today’s energy challenges.
The full list of recognized Technology Pioneers can be viewed here.
About GlassPoint Solar
GlassPoint Solar is the leading supplier of solar to the oil and gas industry. The global oil and gas industry consumes an amount of energy equal to 10% of its own production, making it one of the biggest markets for renewable energy. Operating worldwide from the Middle East to California, GlassPoint’s enclosed trough technology delivers the lowest cost energy to power oilfield operations. By harnessing sunshine, instead of burning natural gas or other fuels, GlassPoint helps oil producers reduce operating expenses while significantly cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
GlassPoint is one of the fastest-growing solar companies in the world with more than than one gigawatt of solar oilfield projects under construction. The World Economic Forum recently recognized GlassPoint as a 2016 Technology Pioneer for its role in enabling more economical and sustainable oil production.

The Three Finalists that Will Represent Israel in the Beijing Finals:
Boomerang is developing a genetic device for cancer therapy based on a concept of a logic AND gate: the activation of our CRISPR-based system is dependent on the existence of two cancer-specific markers inside the cell, promising an extremely specific treatment.

"BHP has launched its first Technology and Innovation award, with Henry Muller taking it out.
According to BHP “the CTO Award recognises outstanding contribution in the field of technology and innovation”.
Muller was recognised for his work in the 1980s that made Olympic Dam a more commercially viable operation, allowing it to extract four major products from the polymetallic deposit.
“Mr Muller, a former employee, developed a single process flow sheet to mine and process one of the largest, most complex mineral deposits in the world,” BHP said.
BHP chief technology officer Diane Jurgens added, “Mr Muller’s process proved that economic benefit could be derived from Olympic Dam and other similar deposit styles.”
“The process flow sheet he created had never been done before. It was a creative and unique application of metallurgical technologies and allowed the Company to produce all four products at the one mine site,
“This is an example of how technology can create value by unlocking resources and lowering costs.
“Importantly, Mr Muller’s work opened up opportunities for mining of other similar complex ore bodies.”
Olympic Dam is one of the pillars of BHP’s asset portfolio, and was the first discovery of an iron oxide copper gold uranium orebody, and is the largest uranium, 5th largest copper, and third largest single gold deposit in the world.
The mine has recently undergone a spate of development as it seeks to tap its massive, newly discovered Southern Mine Area, which increased its resource by 70 per cent almost overnight. "

AMA Innovation Award, 2016: the Winners
www.ama-sensorik.de/en/science/ama-innovation-award/ama-inno…
" Magnetic Flow Cytometry +Nerves of Glass Sway Jury
The AMA Association for Sensors and Measurement (AMA) will present the winners of the AMA Innovation Award 2016 at the SENSOR+TEST trade fair in Nuremberg on 10 May. This year, the 10,000-euro prize will go in equal parts to the developers of two submissions, which the jury deems to have an outstanding degree of innovation as well as great market relevance: the Magnetic Flow Cytometry project by the developer team of Siemens Healthcare, Sensitec, Sencio, and M2 Automation swayed the jury, as did Nerves of Glass – Fiber-Optical 3D-Positioning of Cardiac Catheters by the developer team from Photonik Inkubator Niedersachsen and the Fraunhofer Heinrich-Hertz Institute.
Magnetic Flow Cytometry
The development of magnetic flow cytometry enables detection of target cell functions by marking blood cells with magnetic nanoparticles. The workflow uses a blood-filled cartridge without the need for sample preparation. The concentration measurement counts the magnetically marked cells on site, near the patient, within minutes. The high detection precision allows decisions regarding therapy for unstable cellular biomarkers, which was not feasible with competing processes, as routine applications would involve inordinate investments and specialized knowledge. The jury and AMA Association extend their best wishes to the developer team: Dr. Oliver Hayden, Lukas Richter, Michael Helou, Mathias Reisbeck (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen), Ronald Lehndorff (Sensitec), Ignas van Dommelen (Sencio), Mario Nitzsche (M2 Automation). ( www.healthcare.siemens.com )
Nerves, of Glass
The other award-winning innovation is Nerves o Glass. This novel, fiber-optical 3D positioning of cardiac catheters is a precision navigation and tracking system of great significance in minimally invasive radiology and surgery. Three-dimensional shape and motion detection by means of fiber optical sensors enables repositioning of cardiac catheters with an exactitude of less than one millimeter. This is a decisive contribution to the improvement of successful results and the reduction of the required operating duration for the medical therapy involved. The jury and AMA Association congratulatethe developer team: Professor Dr. Wolfgang Schade, Dr. Martin Angelmahr (Fraunhofer HHI, Goslar), Christian Waltermann, Anna Lena Baumann (Photonik Inkubator/ Fraunhofer HHI), Philip Gühlke (Photonik Inkubator, Göttingen). ( www.photonik-inkubator.de )
“Young Enterprise”, Special, Award, for 4D-Microscope Camera
The special award goes to the developer team headed by Dr. Rachel Wang Ruiqi (d'Optron Pte Ltd., Nanyang Technological University) for the development of the “d’Bioimager,” a real 4D-microscope camera (3D-imaging in real-time) dedicated to biomedical applications. The “young Enterprise” from Singapore received a free trade-fair presence at the SENSOR+TEST 2016. ( www.doptron.com )
Biomedical Technology, as Overall Winner
“This year, 41 innovate research and development teams submitted first-rate development projects competing for the AMA Innovation Award. Both winning projects, Nerves of Glass and Magnetic Flow Cytometry, with their scientifically outstanding solutions and evident practical utility were neck to neck with the other nominees, but won by a nose,” said jury chair Professor Andreas Schütze from the Saarland University, commenting on this year’s selection. “Over though, it was biomedical technology that won the race. Surprisingly, all five nominated teams had developed innovative solutions for medical applications, albeit based on completely different sensor and measurement principles,” added Schütze.Brochure with all Submissions for 2016The AMA Innovation Award, endowed annually by the AMA Association, has been considered for years as one of the most renown awards in sensor and measuring technology. All submitted projects and their innovations are briefly described in the brochure “AMA Innovation Award 2016 – the Competitors,” which can be downloaded free of charge.
Submissions, for the Innovation Award 2017
Forms for submissions to the AMA Innovation Award 2017 will be available online as of the end of October 2016. Projects can be submitted by individuals or development teams from enterprises and institutes. For more information, seeeeeeee ------> vwww.ama-sensorik.de/en/ "

- Stephen O'Hara, chief executive at OptiBiotix Health (LON:OPTI), talks to Proactive Investors about the role the company will play in tackling antibiotic resistance with its novel approach as all the member states of the United Nations are set to sign a declaration agreeing to fight the threat.
" We hope to start human studies by the start or second quarter of next year" he says, adding: "our solution will be a great benefit to hospitals and patients".
"This is a totally new concept in the market place because it has two actions: it kills bacteria and it stops them from re-attacking" O'Hara points out. -

3F Bio voted best speech, +MetGen won the John Sime award, @Efib 2016
https://ilbioeconomista.com/2016/10/28/3f-bio-voted-best-spe…
"3F Bio and MetGen were acknowledged by their peers as industrial biotech leaders at this year’s European Forum on Industrial Biotechnology and the Bioeconomy, which was held on 18-20 October in Glasgow, Scotland,
3F Bio, a technology spin-out company from University of Strathclyde, was voted strongest proposal for funding by a panel of venture capitalists, including BASF VC, S’InvesTec LLC, Sofinnova Partners, Emerald Technology Ventures and Capricorn Venture Partners, at EFIB’s first ever ‘pitchfest’. 3FBio won the pitch for their potential to transform the production economics of mycoprotein (commonly known by the brand name Quorn™) through integrated production within existing large scale biorefineries. Their process delivers both conversion cost efficiencies through a zero-waste process alongside the current production of bioethanol and high protein livestock feed, and unlocks capital efficiency by simplifying fermentation technology.
Commenting on the win, Ceo Jim Laird said: “3f’s innovative approach for zero waste integrated fermentation provides a strong solution to the challenge of meeting the protein requirements for an ever growing global population. This area is receiving global market interest, and with an aim to halve the conversion cost of mycoprotein, 3f’s approach provides a global food solution with exceptional sustainability benefits, demonstrating the merits of industrial biotech. We are delighted to have participated in the pitchfest, excited by the range of interest and quality of new contacts from EFIB, and enthused by the reaction from both potential investors and partners.”
MetGen received the coveted John Sime Award for best innovation presentation for their progress in designing enzymatic processes to unlock the potential of wood and forestry residues as a future feedstock for bio-based products. Ceo Alex Michine, who was presented with his Award by Roger Kilburn, Ceo of IBioIC and Joanna Dupont-Inglis, director of Industrial Biotech at EuropaBio, said “We believe it is a necessity for industries to move towards renewable feed stocks. It is a massive change that will create an enormous new market, in which the existing supply-chains of renewable feed stock – such as pulp and paper industry – will have a lot of common interests with chemical, energy, and other manufacturing industries. MetGen addresses challenges in all of these areas while maintaining a laser-focus on technical side. Companies like ours are needed to function as the catalyst for this change. Apart from our capabilities in enabling new and better end-products, I think it was this message that resonated with the audience. We like to collaborate in order to have impact on a larger scale, and this award is an excellent reminder that there are plenty of potential partners who are well motivated to work towards the same objectives. We find this encouraging and it motivates us to keep up the pace.” "

"3F Bio and MetGen were acknowledged by their peers as industrial biotech leaders at this year’s European Forum on Industrial Biotechnology and the Bioeconomy, which was held on 18-20 October in Glasgow, Scotland,
3F Bio, a technology spin-out company from University of Strathclyde, was voted strongest proposal for funding by a panel of venture capitalists, including BASF VC, S’InvesTec LLC, Sofinnova Partners, Emerald Technology Ventures and Capricorn Venture Partners, at EFIB’s first ever ‘pitchfest’. 3FBio won the pitch for their potential to transform the production economics of mycoprotein (commonly known by the brand name Quorn™) through integrated production within existing large scale biorefineries. Their process delivers both conversion cost efficiencies through a zero-waste process alongside the current production of bioethanol and high protein livestock feed, and unlocks capital efficiency by simplifying fermentation technology.
Commenting on the win, Ceo Jim Laird said: “3f’s innovative approach for zero waste integrated fermentation provides a strong solution to the challenge of meeting the protein requirements for an ever growing global population. This area is receiving global market interest, and with an aim to halve the conversion cost of mycoprotein, 3f’s approach provides a global food solution with exceptional sustainability benefits, demonstrating the merits of industrial biotech. We are delighted to have participated in the pitchfest, excited by the range of interest and quality of new contacts from EFIB, and enthused by the reaction from both potential investors and partners.”
MetGen received the coveted John Sime Award for best innovation presentation for their progress in designing enzymatic processes to unlock the potential of wood and forestry residues as a future feedstock for bio-based products. Ceo Alex Michine, who was presented with his Award by Roger Kilburn, Ceo of IBioIC and Joanna Dupont-Inglis, director of Industrial Biotech at EuropaBio, said “We believe it is a necessity for industries to move towards renewable feed stocks. It is a massive change that will create an enormous new market, in which the existing supply-chains of renewable feed stock – such as pulp and paper industry – will have a lot of common interests with chemical, energy, and other manufacturing industries. MetGen addresses challenges in all of these areas while maintaining a laser-focus on technical side. Companies like ours are needed to function as the catalyst for this change.

Device for mine revegetation wins big, @innovation awards, a new tool to help revegetate mine sites +degraded agricultural lands has won the top prize, @the 2016 WA Innovator of the Year
www.australianmining.com.au/news/device-for-mine-revegetatio…
"A new tool to help revegetate mine sites and degraded agricultural lands has won the top prize at the 2016 WA Innovator of the Year awards.
The ‘seed flamer’, designed by researchers from The University of Western Australia and the Botanic Gardens and Parts Authority, won the Mitsubishi Corporation Emerging Innovation category at the ceremony held on Wednesday.
The awards are designed to promote and acknowledge the success of Western Australian innovators and provide future opportunities for collaborative research with industry and government.
The tool works by repeatedly exposing seeds to a flame inside a rotating drum in a precisely controlled fashion, allowing the fluffy appendages and hairs on the seeds to be carefully removed and making them easier to handle.
It is set to transform the way mine sites and agricultural land are rehabilitated.
Dr. Andrew Guzzomi, an agriculture engineer and assistant professor in UWA’s School of Mechanical and Chemical Engineering, said the fluffy appendages and hairs on wild collected seeds make them bulky to store and transport and they stick together, making them difficult to sort and use in direct seeding machinery.
“Removing the appendages enables the application of artificial coatings to seeds to improve germination and allow precision machine sowing,” he said.
“Importantly, the exposure of the seeds to the flame is controlled to have the desired result without harming the seeds’ ability to germinate.”
Dr. Guzzomi collaborated with Dr. Todd Erickson from UWA’s School of Plant Biology and Dr. David Merritt, senior research scientist at the Botanic Gardens and Parks Authority on the project.
The $25,000 prize money will be used to explore seed flaming of diverse plant species at a commercial scale in Australia and the USA for revegetation and rangeland management.
The ‘flash flaming’ device has been patented and a partnership to support the commercialisation of the invention is being offered through UWA’s Research Development and Innovation office."

NREL Technologies Honored, @R&D 100 Awards Ceremony; last night received three R&D 100 Awards, an honor presented by R&D Magazine, +considered to be the "Oscars of innovation"
www.nrel.gov/news/press/2016/39760
"The Energy Department's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) last night received three R&D 100 Awards, an honor presented by R&D Magazine and considered to be the Oscars of innovation.
The prize in the Mechanical/Materials category was awarded to the EcoSnap-AC Heat Pump System created by Chuck Booten and Jon Winkler from NREL's Advanced Residential Buildings research group.
The award in the Analytical/Test category went to the Battery Internal Short-Circuit Device developed by Matthew Keyser and Ahmad Pesaran from NREL's Energy Storage research group.
"We are honored to receive this prestigious award with our collaborators at NASA," said Keyser. "With the recent lithium battery safety incidents being highlighted in the media, it is imperative to introduce advanced tools such as the ISC to ensure that consumers are safe while meeting their performance expectations for electronics and electrified vehicle applications."
A North Carolina company, Wolfspeed, won in the IT/Electrical category for the High-Temperature, Wide Bandgap Underhood Inverter developed with NREL, Toyota, and the University of Arkansas' National Center for Reliable Electric Power Transmission. Kevin Bennion, Sreekant Narumanchi, Gilbert Moreno, Paul Paret, and Doug DeVoto of NREL's Advanced Power Electronics and Electric Machines research group were part of that project.
Booten and Winkler devised the EcoSnap-AC heat pump as an alternative to window-mounted air conditioning units. The device installs anywhere on an exterior wall, so that people can be comfortable without losing the view from their window. It is also quieter, more energy efficient, heats and cools, doesn't jeopardize home security, is easy for a homeowner to install in just a few minutes, and can be left in place year-round. The approach divides the heat pump into two separate yet tightly integrated parts, with one external to the home and the other on the interior.
"It's always gratifying to know that all the extra effort you have put into developing an idea actually resonates with people," Booten said. "It shows that your vision has some validity."
The newly patented NREL Battery Internal Short-Circuit Device is the first mechanism able to accurately simulate a true internal short circuit within a battery cell, providing researchers with reliable data to determine how the size, resistance, and location of an internal short circuit will affect safety measures implemented in new battery designs. The advanced technology of the tiny, easy-to-implant device is capable of pinpointing different types of internal short circuits in all types of batteries. This includes lithium-ion batteries found commonly in vehicles, cell phones, and laptops.
Wolfspeed's Wide Bandgap Inverter is a traction drive for electric vehicles that could significantly boost their adoption by consumers. The company's partnership with industry leaders, such as Toyota, ensures that the technology is adoptable for implementation into vehicle applications. Bennion said that while NREL's work on the project has ended, it gave the laboratory "the opportunity to develop working relationships with industry partners leading to new collaborations."
Since 1963, the R&D 100 Awards have identified revolutionary technologies newly introduced into the market. The winners represent a cross section of industry, academia, private research firms, and government labs. Winners of the R&D 100 Awards are selected by an independent judging panel and the editors of R&D Magazine.
NREL has won 61 R&D 100 Awards since 1982.
NREL is the U.S. Department of Energy's primary national laboratory for renewable energy and energy efficiency research and development. NREL is operated for the Energy Department by The Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC.

"The 5 Most Innovative US Pre-Series A Startups
Biome Makers, San Francisco, CA
An ag bioinformatics startup for the wine industry, Biome Makers offers a soil testing service to vineyards to give them recommendations and insights on improving the quality and yield of their crop. It does this by testing for microbial species in the soil, and determining the impact they will have on a vineyard through an extensive microbial database. Biome Makers raised a $2.2 million seed round in 2016.
IntelinAir, San Jose, CA
IntelinAir uses imagery analytics to find anomalies that could have an adverse effect on a farmer’s operations and profitability, such as a weed infestation, nutrient deficiencies, weather damages, or insects and fungus. IntelinAir raised a $3.5 million seed round in September 2016.
n.io, Broomfield, CO
An Internet of Things software and automation platform boasting the ability to connect to unlimited sensor and data inputs, n.io works across industries and its first ag product is an irrigation management and control service.
Abundant Robotics, Hayward, CA
The startup’s mission is to “bring robotic solutions for the hardest jobs in agriculture,” and its first robot is an apple-picking robot, designed to pick one apple a second, without damaging the tree or the fruit. It uses computer vision to recognize the apples on the branch that are ready for harvest and picks them using a type of vacuum.
Produce Pay, Los Angeles, CA
Farmers are often left waiting for produce to sell before they’re paid, leaving them in a risky financial position post-harvest. ProducePay is an online platform that connects them directly with distributors and suppliers but also pays them for their produce the day after it’s shipped through a lending platform. ProducePay raised a $2.5 million seed round in July 2016.
The 5 Most Innovative US Startups at Series A and Beyond:
AgBiome, Raleigh, NC
AgBiome is using microbiome research to manufacture biofungicides and other bio-control products. It has isolated, sequenced and screened over 26k microbes through its discovery and development platform Genesis. It’s also discovered several new mode-of-action traits and biological input products in what it describes as “the microbe land grab.” The company has attracted equity and grant investment from The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which saw the potential for AgBiome’s technology to impact smallholder farmers in Africa.
Benson Hill Biosystems, St. Louis, MO
Benson Hill is a bioinformatics or bio-discovery platform using large amounts of genomic data and biological intelligence from public and private sources to pinpoint which plants will produce desired traits and improved performance. CropOS, which Benson Hill launched this year as its ‘cloud biology’ platform, uses machine learning to grow smarter and more predictive with every experiment and data set. It recently partnered with the National Corn Growers Association.
Blue River Technologies, Sunnyvale, CA
Blue River’s weeding robot uses computer vision and machine learning to observe and identify plants in need of chemical treatment, weeding or thinning; make a fast decision on the appropriate course of action, and execute that action in real time. The company claims that this precision application of inputs — in comparison to the broad-based application of fertilizer and chemicals that traditional equipment allows — will reduce the amount of chemicals used in agriculture by 90 percent.
Descartes Labs, Los Alamos, NM
The artificial intelligence and deep learning startup claims to be able to use satellite data to make agriculture predictions that are more accurate than the US Department of Agriculture. It will teach computers to identify specific information and find patterns across vast amounts of image data and pixels to give a better understanding of how crops are growing globally and over time. By the end of 2015, the company had looked at 2.8 quadrillion pixels of satellite data to predict the corn harvest by effectively measuring the weight of the average kernel of corn to better than 3 milligrams, or 99 percent accuracy.
Farmers Business Network, San Carlos, CA
Starting out as a farmer-to-farmer agronomic network and data aggregation service, it later added the FBN Procurement Platform with the aim of enabling farmers to purchase chemical inputs directly from manufacturers, with full price transparency, to help them reduce costs. The platform touts a 15 percent to 40 percent saving on popular chemicals and offers a best price guarantee.
The 5 Most Innovative International Pre-Series A Startups:
AgriWebb, Windsor, Australia
AgriWebb’s goal is to leverage the data coming off pastoral livestock farms to improve their efficiency and profitability. Through its mobile app, AgriWebb is also a record-keeping tool for producers, which they can feed into their budgeting, business analytics, and reporting processes. In July 2016 it raised $3 million in seed funding.
Connecterra, Amsterdam, Holland
The company manufactures wearable devices for dairy cows to monitor their health in real-time using machine learning and sensor technology. In May 2016 it raised $1.8 million in seed funding from a diverse investor base including UK IoT-focused incubator Breed Reply, UAE-based fund MENA Venture Investments, and Japanese video game developer DeNA.
SunCulture, Nairobi, Kenya
A solar-powered drip irrigation kit manufacturer, SunCulture has plans to become a one-stop shop for emerging market farmers by providing asset finance to help them purchase ag technologies and improve yields. The CEO Samir Ibrahim was recently named on Forbes’ 30 under 30 list for energy. The startup has won several grants including USAID’s Powering Agriculture: An Energy Grand Challenge for Development.
Taranis, Tel Aviv, Israel
A farm management software platform, Taranis focuses on making crop disease predictions using weather data, satellite imagery, and weather stations. Its SmartScout app sends messages and chat notifications to a farmers’ network of service providers, such as their agronomists or crop scouts, to help them prioritize their work on the farm each visit. Taranis raised $2 million in seed funding from Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff among others.
The Yield, Sydney, Australia
The startup offers sensors, data management platforms, and mobile apps to producers in the agriculture and aquaculture industries. This IoT approach allows clients to improve on-farm productivity, reduce the cost of complying with food safety standards, increase shelf life, and provide better risk management, according to the company. It raised $2.5 million in seed funding in a round led by global technology and services provider Bosch Group.
The 5 Most Innovative International Startups at Series A and Beyond:
Engender Technologies, Auckland, New Zealand
Engender uses lasers to effectively sort sperm by sex providing the $2.4 billion artificial insemination market with greater control over the sex of the offspring that is born. The company uses light in a number of ways, from orienting sperm cells, looking inside them, and separating them based on whether they bear an X chromosome or a Y chromosome. It raised a $4.5 million Series A in June 2016.
Farmers Edge, Winnipeg, Canada
The farm management and decision support software company focuses on collecting and analyzing big data coming off the farm. By “digitizing” each farm it undertakes — including installing a weather station for every 2,500 acres and connecting its CanPlug sensors to farm machinery — the company boasts an ability to bring solid predictive models to remote parts of the world. It raised several funding rounds in 2016 including providing an exit for Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers when Prem Watsa invested in December 2016.
Gamaya, Lausanne, Switzerland
Through the use of drone imagery, the company provides farmers with alerts about pests and disease, yield predictions, and prescriptions for input application rates. Its current platform services corn, soybean, and sugarcane growers. Gamaya differentiates itself from others in the drone imagery space through its hyperspectral sensing technology; the majority of drone imagery companies use multispectral images. It raised $3.2 million in Series A funding in May.
Prospera Technologies, Tel Aviv, Israel
This startup is taking a novel approach to monitoring crops with a camera and sensor hardware system, which currently captures half a million readings every day. Using computer vision and a large database of research around diseases, nutrient deficiency, and other types of crop stress, Prospera’s cameras can pick up on small changes to crops, and predict the issue afflicting them. It raised a $7 million Series A in July.
Ynsect, Évry, France
Ynsect is using robotics and automation to farm mealworm for use as a fishmeal replacement in fish feed. Ynsect’s proprietary technology produces TMP, or Tenebrio molitor protein — a de-fatted protein meal made of farmed mealworm larvae. It raised $15.2 million in Series B funding in December.

Lunar XPrize finalists to shoot for the moon, in 2017
- Israel's SpaceIL plans to use a "hopper" style spacecraft to complete the mission -
http://newatlas.com/confirmed-lunar-xprize-2017/47543/?li_so…
"The Google Lunar XPrize finale has been almost a decade in the making, but 2017 will be the year that we finally have lift off. The XPrize foundation has today confirmed the five finalist teams that have secured launch contracts and will make a final push for the Moon's surface (and US$30 million in prize money) before the year is out.
Announced in 2007, the Google Lunar XPrize is a competition designed to encourage and inspire more affordable approaches to robotic space exploration. Of the $30 million on offer, $20 million will be awarded to the first privately funded team to land a spacecraft on the moon, travel 500 m (1,640 ft) and transmit HD video and images of the action back to Earth. $5 million goes to second place while the other $5 million is designated for bonus prizes such as surviving the lunar night.
To those tracking the competition, a few of the names might sound familiar. US startup Moon Express and and its partners at the New Zealand-based Rocket Lab, who teamed up to tackle the Lunar XPrize back in 2015, will send the former's 600 kg (1,320 lb) lander off into space aboard the latter's shiny new rockets. The Moon Express team will launch from Mahia, New Zealand late in 2017.
Japan's Hakuto team, which also has a Moon resources exploration contract with the national space agency JAXA, has parted ways with Astrobotic, on whose Griffin Lander it had previously agreed to hitch a ride into space. It has now partnered with Team Indus, and will instead ride-share with the Indian team's Moon Rover ECA on a PSLV rocket in December 2017. Hakuto also hopes to explore holes in the surface that are believed to be "skylights" into lava tubes beneath.
- India's Team Indus will launch its rover into space alongside Hakuto's hopper spacecraft in December 2017 -
Israel's SpaceIL team was in fact the first to secure a verified launch contract for the Lunar XPrize, signing a launch agreement with SpaceX back in October 2015. It plans to use a "hopper" style spacecraft to complete the mission, a vehicle that has the ability to land and take off again to explore more freely than ground-based rovers. It is set to launch in late 2017.
And then there is Synergy Moon, the international collaboration that will use its own in-house launch service provided by team member Interorbital Systems. It will lift-off from the ocean off the California coast in the second half of the year.
All five teams have verified launch contracts and the guidelines have been updated to stipulate that each mission must be launched by December 31, 2017. So whoever ends up taking the cake, it seems the Moon's surface is set to see plenty of action in the months ahead. "

- One of the last teams to enter the GLXP, SpaceIL was co-founded by Yariv Bash, whose grandfather's life was tragically altered by the Holocaust. Inspired by his grandfather's work as an engineer, Bash hopes SpaceIL's efforts to build cool new technology will encourage others, including his young son, to improve the world for future generations. Episode Seven of Moon Shot, a documentary from Academy Award®-nominated director Orlando von Einsiedel, Executive Producer J.J. Abrams, Bad Robot, Epic Digital Google and XPRIZE (http://lunar.xprize.org). The Google Lunar XPRIZE is the largest prize competition of all time with a reward of $30 million and aims to incentivize entrepreneurs to create a new era of affordable access to the Moon and beyond, while inspiring the next generation of scientists, engineers, and explorers.
This character-driven, emotional, awe-inspiring series of 9 short films will follow a selection of the teams currently racing to complete their missions. It will explore the lives of their charismatic, quirky members, the sacrifices they have made to get to where they are today, and crucially, what drives them on this incredible journey.

From video game-based therapies and a liquid biopsy for cancer to deep learning and bioelectronics, 2016’s Fierce 15 are redefining what it means to be a medical device. If they’re not making big bets on nascent technology, they’re reimagining an existing device or therapy to deliver better results.
A big trend this past year was upending how we use imaging in healthcare. Acutus Medical is trying to improve catheter ablation as a treatment for atrial fibrillation using an alternative to traditional voltage-based heart activity mapping. The procedure is only successful about half of the time and Acutus is aiming to bring that success rate up to 100% with its AcQMap system. RefleXion Medical is combining PET imaging and radiotherapy in one device so that, for the first time, radiotherapy may be image-guided in real time. This allows the century-old cancer treatment, which could only be used to treat one tumor at a time, to be deployed against metastatic cancer.
Meanwhile, Arterys and Zebra Medical are both working on systems that will read and make diagnoses based on medical images, streamlining a time-consuming process. Arterys seeks not only to expedite physician decision-making, but also to “transform healthcare” by making image analysis a consistent, quantitative and data-driven process. Zebra, on the other hand, is marketing image-analyzing algorithms to hospitals and—since November—to consumers in an effort to bring high-end radiology services to more people.
Akili Interactive is reimagining the definition of medicine: It has a video game-based treatment for ADHD in phase 3 and is developing the tech for diagnostic purposes as well. And G-Therapeutics is working on restoring lower limb function in people with spinal cord injuries using a combination of a neurostimulator and gravity-assisted training.
Of course, this list wouldn’t be complete without the visionaries: Illumina spinoff Grail is trying to apply liquid biopsy—currently used to guide treatment in people already known to have cancer—to the early detection of the disease. And Auris Surgical Robotics and J&J/Verily joint venture Verb Surgical are both seeking to break new ground in the robotic surgery arena, which has long been commanded by Intuitive Surgical. Another Verily JV, Galvani Bioelectronics, is developing tiny implants that can be placed on nerves to effect changes in the body, inducing it to heal itself.
We received an impressive number of nominations and would like to thank everyone who submitted company names. So, without further ado, here’s the list of honorees for 2016. Let us know what you think and as we get on with 2017, send along any prospects you think we should keep an eye on. — Amirah Al Idrus, @FierceBiotech

Five Finalists Set to Take Stage @#DisruptMining
- Bio-Mine Ltd.
Using a bio-intelligent, augmenting consortium of organisms designed specifically for “targeted” metal recovery and remediation, this game changing environmental technology is programmable to specific mineralogy in many different environmental conditions. Discovered by Dr. Vasu Appanna, a Professor and former Dean of Science and Engineering at Laurentian University, also led by company co-founder Kurtis Vanwallegham, Bio-Mine Ltd. is set to drive the mining recovery and remediation sector towards the elusive and ultimate “0-footprint” goal.
- Cementation Canada Inc.
Using a combination of existing and proven crushing, pumping and slurry technologies, Cementation has developed a proof of concept model for process injection hoisting that would eliminate the need for mine shaft production hoisting or trucking, transporting ore to the surface using a pump driven pipeline loop. The technology is adaptable to all mining methods and would substantially reduce energy consumption and ventilation requirements. The team at Cementation “builds mines” from design through to construction and this invention has the potential to revolutionize underground mine development to the benefit of the entire industry.
- Goldspot Discoveries Inc.
developed a machine-learning algorithm capable of significantly improving mineral exploration targeting on both a regional and local scale. Goldspot Discoveries is revolutionizing the investment decision model by using the Goldspot Algorithm to stake acreage, acquire projects and royalties, and invest in public vehicles to create a portfolio of assets with the greatest reward to risk ratio. Managed by seasoned industry experts from both financial and technical backgrounds, the team is armed with a unique technological edge designed by the Data Miners, the next generation of mining genius and runners up in the 2016 Integra Gold Rush Challenge.
- KORE Geosystems Inc.
The true power of machine learning and artificial intelligence can only be unleashed with robust, high quality data inputs. KORE plans to install instruments onto the drill rig that can provide real-time, automated data accelerating timelines for multiple mining stages and decision-making intelligence. The KORE team, Vince Gerrie, Aaron Maher, Sebastian D. Goodfellow, Chris Drielsma, Patrick Hooker and Chris Lane, bring together years of expertise in geology, geophysics, software engineering, and technology development.
- TradeWind Markets Inc.
is a new electronic trading, settlement and custody platform for physical gold bullion. TradeWind Markets is using a combination of distributed ledger technology (blockchain) and exchange technology to unlock functionality in gold bullion, vaulted with a G7 Government counterparty. The business is a partnership between IEX, the Investors Exchange, a fair, simple and transparent stock exchange, and Sprott Asset Management, a globally recognized leader in precious metals investment.

Six candidates, for the Innovation Award "Bio-based Material of the Year, 2017"
http://bio-based-conference.com/programme
" BIO-LUTIONS (DE): BIO-LUTIONS fibres (up-cycled agricultural residuals)
With its innovative mechanical process, bio-lutions produces high performance ecologically sustainable packaging and disposable tableware made directly from agricultural residuals. Converted into self-binding natural fibres, this innovation lets the contaminating and energy-intense process of cellulose extraction to be a thing of the past. The final products can either decompose under normal conditions, be used for biogas production and can be recycled or burned with a nearly CO2 neutral carbon footprint. Local raw material, local production and local market – decentralisation is the key.
Cooper Tire(US): Guayule natural rubber for tire application (guayule polymer - polyisoprene)
Guayule is a shrub that grows in regions such as the Southwestern U.S. It holds promise as a source of rubber for the tire industry - a possible alternative to Hevea rubber, which could be in short supply in the future and is subject to dramatic price fluctuations. This year, Cooper and its consortium partners completed a five-year bio-material study to assess how guayule rubber could be used in modern passenger car tires. Key wins include among others the creation of the first ever concept tire where all of the natural and synthetic rubber has been replaced with guayule.
Hexpol (BE/SE): Dryflex® Green (bio-based thermoplastic elastomer)
Dryflex® Green is a family of bio-based thermoplastic elastomers (TPE). They are opening up previously unreachable solutions to the bio-based thermoplastic market by covering a wider range of hardnesses, including softer grades, while incorporating high levels of renewable content to over 90%. Hexpol has also developed compounds using organic fillers from plants, crops or trees; these give additional organic appearance and haptics. Dryflex® Green TPEs are highly customisable, with grades tailored to meet specific application requirements to give manufacturers of household goods, sports equipment, toys, infant care and packaging new opportunities for sustainability.
Paptic (FI): PAPTIC® – the next generation of paper (novel renewable, recyclable and reusable material)
Paptic is replacing oil based plastics with bio-based, recyclable and reusable PAPTIC® material, which uses a novel wood fibre for a bioplastic composite paper combining the benefits of paper, plastics and textiles. First application of PAPTIC® is carrier bags, addressing the EU directive target for 55% reduction of plastic bag use by 2019. PAPTIC® bags have been launched to market in June 2016. The patented PAPTIC® technology is based on foam forming technology which is using 30% less energy and enabling up to 50% light weighting of products, when compared to traditional papermaking.
Patagonia (US): Yulex R3 wetsuit (85% natural rubber/15% synthetic rubber by polymer content, recycled polyester content in linings)
Wetsuits have always relied on neoprene (polychloroprene), which is non-renewable with energy-intensive manufacturing process. For eight years, Patagonia has been pioneering natural rubbers and sharing R&D with the surf/wetsuit industry to encourage a shift towards cleaner materials. In 2016, Patagonia launched the world’s first neoprene-free wetsuit, reducing their CO2 emitted in the polymer manufacturing by up to ~80% compared to conventional neoprene. The new plant-based material pioneered by Yulex Corp is sourced from Hevea rubber that is independently certified to the FSC® standard by the Rainforest Alliance, uses ambient rainfall and recycled water in manufacturing.
Phytowelt GreenTechnologies (DE): Chiral raspberry fragrance ((R)-alpha-Ionone)
The (R)-alpha-Ionone is the main component of raspberry fragrance. Usually it is synthesized chemically as an racemate which contains the enantiomer (R)-alpha-Ionone as well as the distomer (S)-alpha-Ionone. The (S)-form has a woody and musty flavour which gives the chemical racemate a different and impure fragrance. However, it is complex and uneconomic to separate enantiomers and distomers. With its patented process, Phytowelt is not producing any of the distomers but only the enantiomer. Therefore, the raspberry fragrance is chiral pure, smells intensive and is, because of the biotechnological production, a natural flavour component. This raspberry fragrance is the first natural in the market which can be produced in high quantity as well as quality resulting in a high competitive advantage."

"UN Global Pulse and Western Digital Announce Winners of 'Data for Climate Action' Challenge Nachrichtenquelle: Business Wire (engl.) | 29.11.2017, 14:15 | 142 | 0 | 0 Global Pulse, the United Nations innovation initiative on big data and data science, and Western Digital Corp. (NASDAQ: WDC) announced the winning solutions of the Data for Climate Action (D4CA) challenge at an event during COP23, a United Nations climate change conference. The challenge, which was launched earlier this year, is an unprecedented open-innovation competition to harness data science and big data to accelerate climate solutions. The challenge was organized by UN Global Pulse with the support of the Skoll Global Threats Fund and Western Digital. “The growing volume, velocity, variety and value of data tells a story of unlimited possibilities,” said Dave Tang, senior vice president, corporate marketing and communications, Western Digital. “This challenge is just one example of how we can capture, preserve, access and transform all types of data to unlock solutions to help our communities and our planet to thrive.” The D4CA challenge demonstrates what is possible when public and private sector organizations partner for social good. Access to large amounts of data – anonymized and aggregated to protect privacy – accelerates the ability to derive insights and develop predictive algorithms that provide more precise solutions. According to Robert Kirkpatrick, director of UN Global Pulse, “The inspiring innovations that resulted from this challenge are proof of how much we can achieve in enabling climate solutions when climate experts, data scientists and companies work together.” UN Global Pulse and Western Digital recently announced the winners of D4CA at an event on Data Innovation: Generating Climate Solutions, held during COP23 in Bonn, Germany. The innovation event celebrated the winning projects and brought together business leaders, data scientists, and climate experts for interactive talks, discussions, and demonstrations of data visualizations and innovations. “The success of this challenge is a testament to the tireless efforts and commitment of the companies we worked with, and even more so, the champions within each of them. If public and private sectors can work to replicate these efforts at larger scale, there is tremendous potential for innovation across all of the Sustainable Development Goals,” added Kirkpatrick. More than 450 teams of specialized data scientists and researchers from 67 countries applied to participate in the challenge. Of these, 97 semi-finalists worked to develop innovation projects using datasets and tools from 11 different companies. About the Winning Teams Grand Prize – Electro-mobility: Cleaning Mexico City's Air With Big Data and Climate Policy A team of researchers from the University of California, Berkeley and the Instituto Nacional de Ecología y Cambio Climático received the challenge grand prize for their research into Mexico City’s traffic patterns. The team analyzed data from Waze to evaluate different transportation electrification policies in order to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Thematic Awards Predicting and Alleviating Road Flooding for Climate Mitigation Using data from mobile operator Orange, a team from the Georgia Institute of Technology developed a framework to build the resilience of road networks in Senegal to flooding, which also helps to prioritize road improvements given a certain budget. EMMA: Ecosystem Monitoring for Management Application A team from the University of Cape Town and the University of Buffalo developed a platform using Planet satellite data to predict and monitor, in near real time, the impact of forest fires in the Cape Floristic Region of South Africa. Air Pollution Induced Micro-migrations: Impacts on Consumer Spending A team from Yale University evaluated shifts in spending patterns related to changes in air quality in Spain, using financial transaction data from BBVA Data and Analytics and weather data from Earth Networks. Data Visualization Awards A Framework for the Optimization of Winter Wheat Seeding Date Using weather data, a team based in Turkey developed a framework to determine the best winter seeding date for wheat in the context of climate adaptation, which was then visualized using tools from Tableau. Urban Physiology: A Dynamic Spatial-Temporal Model of Urban Carbon Emissions to Drive Climate Action by Cities Combining data from Crimson Hexagon, Plume Labs and multiple other sources, a team from New York University created a dashboard that incorporates a high-resolution hourly model of urban carbon emissions to help support decision-making by urban policymakers.

DISRUPT100 (2017)
http://disrupt100.com/#disrupt100
- ABOUT
The DISRUPT 100 is an annual index celebrating the businesses with the most potential to influence, change or create new global markets.
The report tracks the world’s most disruptive businesses, compiled and curated by the world’s leading entrepreneurs, investors and business people.
Each Disrupt 100 venture was sourced from over 5M global startups and corporate ventures, has been scored against a specific criteria measuring the potential it has to affect an existing market or geography, introduce new customers into an existing market and/or creating a new market with significant customer demand.
The ventures were then judged by global brands including Google, Uber, Oracle, Silicon Valley Bank and Virgin StartUp, tech accelerators Microsoft Ventures, Accelerated Digital Ventures and Whitespace Ventures and entrepreneurs Emma Sinclair, Tom Goodwin and Bill Liao.
The 100 listing provides greater public understanding of the innovation by companies worldwide. We’re going beyond providing a simple index with analysis of the disruption and its wider impact provided.
Background
Entire industries are being disrupted by new, often well-funded new businesses that can quickly scale and in many instances displace long-established companies.
Since 2002 52% of the Fortune 500 companies are no longer around; most are now expected to last no more than another 15-20 years.
The Disrupt 100 champions those businesses who are truly innovating; rethinking today’s products, services, technologies and business models to open new markets and create new demand.
Media
If you’d like to know more about the Disrupt 100, any of the companies featured within the index please drop us a line at disrupt100@tallt.ventures.
Partner, with us
In 2017 Disrupt 100 reached over 3 million people. We’re now looking for a corporate partner to help us build the brand and celebrate the exceptional companies in the upcoming 2018 index.
If you are interested in how we could work together, PLEASE contact Matt Connolly. -

DISRUPT100 (2017)
http://disrupt100.com/#disrupt100
- ABOUT
The DISRUPT 100 is an annual index celebrating the businesses with the most potential to influence, change or create new global markets.
The report tracks the world’s most disruptive businesses, compiled and curated by the world’s leading entrepreneurs, investors and business people.
Each Disrupt 100 venture was sourced from over 5M global startups and corporate ventures, has been scored against a specific criteria measuring the potential it has to affect an existing market or geography, introduce new customers into an existing market and/or creating a new market with significant customer demand.
The ventures were then judged by global brands including Google, Uber, Oracle, Silicon Valley Bank and Virgin StartUp, tech accelerators Microsoft Ventures, Accelerated Digital Ventures and Whitespace Ventures and entrepreneurs Emma Sinclair, Tom Goodwin and Bill Liao.
The 100 listing provides greater public understanding of the innovation by companies worldwide. We’re going beyond providing a simple index with analysis of the disruption and its wider impact provided.
Background
Entire industries are being disrupted by new, often well-funded new businesses that can quickly scale and in many instances displace long-established companies.
Since 2002 52% of the Fortune 500 companies are no longer around; most are now expected to last no more than another 15-20 years.
The Disrupt 100 champions those businesses who are truly innovating; rethinking today’s products, services, technologies and business models to open new markets and create new demand.
Media
If you’d like to know more about the Disrupt 100, any of the companies featured within the index please drop us a line at disrupt100@tallt.ventures.
Partner, with us
In 2017 Disrupt 100 reached over 3 million people. We’re now looking for a corporate partner to help us build the brand and celebrate the exceptional companies in the upcoming 2018 index.
If you are interested in how we could work together, PLEASE contact Matt Connolly. -

"Tackling windmill icing, Borealis takes top prize, @venture funding competition

As Canada, and many other countries in often inhospitable northerly climates, move to grow wind power generation on an industrial scale, a new problem has emerged: wintertime icing of windmill blades is sapping a considerable level of output — while causing a safety hazard.
“There are 200,000 wind turbines worldwide affected by this problem, which is 65 per cent of the wind market,” said Daniela Roeper, founder of Borealis Wind. “These wind farms are losing about $3 billion annually, $200 million of that is in Canada, and this market is growing at 13 per cent per year.”
Unlike aircraft wings that can be hosed down on the ground to remove ice buildup before takeoff, windmill blades aloft on increasingly tall structures present a larger — and more costly — challenge. In some cases, helicopters have been hired to spray the blades with piping hot water to remove the ice. In other cases, the blades are taken down to install heating systems on the exterior to the blades.
Borealis Wind believes it has come up with a better solution. The start-up developed an in-blade heater, blower and duct system that can heat and circulate hot air throughout the blade to prevent the buildup of ice. Tests have shown the system can heat through the fibreglass of the blade to 7 C. A simple retrofit can reclaim 80 per cent of the power that would otherwise have been lost to icing downtime, said the company, which is currently pilot testing the technology with Enbridge Inc.

The Kitchener, Ont.-based company won the hearts of both the judges and the audience at the Energy New Venture Competition hosted by the University of Calgary’s Hunter Hub for Entrepreneurial Thinking in Calgary Tuesday.
Ten companies were selected out of almost 100 applicants to present at the annual competition, divided into concept and venture streams. Borealis Wind took the top prize of $25,000 in the venture stream as well as the $1,000 audience choice award.
“What really differentiates our system is that it is simple to install and simple to maintain, which reduces the cost of implementation,” Roeper told the judges. “The entire system can be installed up tower without removing the blades.” Other heating solutions require the blades to be removed for installation. “By not doing this, our system is 10 times cheaper.”
The company is seeking to raise $500,000 by the summer and to have 50 systems installed this year, including 40 with Enbridge. On average, it estimates payback will take three years. The company plans to eventually see that the system is licensed for implementation on new turbines.
And as more wind farms dot the Alberta prairie in the coming years with the phase-out of coal, it is seeking new standards that could make those turbines safer, noted Roeper. “We are also looking at having deicing as a standard because ice throw off of turbines is incredibly dangerous; [there] can be hundreds of kilograms [of] ice chunks that can be thrown hundreds of metres from the turbine itself,” she said.
A full list of winners is on the Daily Oil Bulletin website .
The Energy New Venture Competition, which brings together promising entrepreneurs and venture capital funders, has raised almost $500,000 in cash and in-kind support for start-up companies over the past five years."

"Twelve Groundbreaking AgTech Startups Selected to Pitch at AgLaunch Startup Station
Companies will pitch to a panel of farmers and investors, including Innova Memphis, a $31 million fund seeking to invest in agriculture’s next big innovation
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (February 21, 2018) —
AgLaunch is bringing its Startup Station pitch event back to the Mid-South Farm and Gin Show for a second time on Friday, March 2, 2018. This event will host some of AgLaunch’s most innovative agtech entrepreneurs from across the country to showcase how their ideas will shape the future of food and agriculture.
Agtech entrepreneurs are addressing on-farm issues with real-world solutions like irrigation management, farm-level efficiencies, and autonomous equipment. The Startup Station will highlight more than a dozen companies that will receive feedback from an expert panel that includes farmers, investors, and industry experts. This event serves as the culmination of Phase II of the AgLaunch365 programming, a farm-centric model that supports agtech companies by connecting to them farmers early in their development process.
Current AgLaunch365 Cohort:
EarthSense is developing ultra-compact autonomous robots that use machine-learning to monitor and manage problems in agriculture, specifically to identify weeds and chemical-free methods of reliably eradicating superweeds.
Rabbit Tractors is building swarm-enabled, autonomous tractors that are approximately one-third the size and one-fourth the weight of normal tractors and spray rigs and capable of pulling implements as well as late-season spraying
Rantizo is developing an electrostatic spraying system for targeted drone-based spraying.
AgLaunch Alumni Teams:
Kilimo provides a decision-support tool for irrigation management in agriculture by using satellite, climate, and on-site data.
Microbiometer is a quick test used to estimate the microbial biomass in soil in 10 minutes for 10 percent of the cost of a lab test.
Persistence Data Mining is developing a non-intrusive remote hyper-spectral soil analysis to service large tracks of open farmland
Skycision rapidly identifies field stress through the analysis of aerial imagery.
Additional participating teams being evaluated for investment or participating in AgLaunch365 Phase III Farmer Network Field Trials and growth-track programming:
AgHelp is an app and wrap-around services helping ag workers find jobs and resources
AgriSync is a communication platform connecting farmers with trusted experts
Global AgSmarte has developed SmarteRoot, an irrigation add-on that increases absorption of water and nutrients for crops to increase yields.
Harvest Yield is an electronic record-keeping system to ensure accurate invoicing for custom harvesters.
Stable’N is a nitrification inhibitor process that utilizes electricity delivered into the soil by a retrofit to existing fertilizer application equipment
SwineTech has developed a farrowing safety device to protect the health of piglets.
During two investment pitch sessions, entrepreneurs will be given 8 minutes to pitch their ideas and 7 minutes to answer questions from a panel of farmers, investors, and agribusiness professionals who will provide feedback to refine these products and prepare the companies for follow-on investment and 2018 farm-scale trials. Participating panelists represent the following organizations:
Growing Acres Farm
Indigo Ag
Innova Ag Innovation Fund IV
Mid-South Family Farms
National Black Growers Council
Ritter Agribusiness
TechStar
Teams that perform well will have the opportunity for follow-on investment from Innova Memphis and participation in 2018 farm-scale field trials with the AgLaunch Farmer Network.
The AgLaunch Startup Station will be open at the Chickasaw Room on the Mezzanine Level at Booth #4027 for anyone wishing to engage with the startup companies or to learn more about AgLaunch from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. The investment pitch sessions will be held from 10:30 am-12:00 pm and from 1:30 pm until 3:00 pm.
The Mid-South Farm and Gin Show hosts more than 400 exhibitors and 20,000 farmers every year. You can learn more about the Farm and Gin Show at their website https://www.farmandginshow.com.

"Announcing the shortlist for Robot Launch 2017
in Uncategorized
The Robotics Hub, in collaboration with Silicon Valley Robotics, is currently investing in robotics, AI and sensor startups, with checks between $250,000 and $500,000. Current portfolio companies include Agility Robotics, RoBotany, Travelwits and Ariel Precision Technologies.
A team of judges has shortlisted 25 robotics startups who all deserve mention. Eight startups will be in our public voting which will start on Dec 1st and continue till December 10 on Robohub.org. Also eight startups are currently giving longer pitches to a panel of judges, so that the final winner(s) can be announced at the Silicon Valley Robotics investor showcase on December 14.
The Top 25 in alphabetical order are:
Achille, Inc.
Apellix
Augmented Robots (spin-off from GESTALT Robotics)
Betterment Labs (formerly known as MOTI)
BotsAndUs
C2RO Cloud Robotics
DroidX
Fotokite
Fruitbot, Inc.
Holotron
INF Robotics Inc.
Kinema Systems Inc.
Kiwi Campus
KOMPAÏ robotics
krtkl inc.
Mothership Aeronautics
Northstar Robotics Inc
Rabbit Tractors, Inc
Semio
TatuRobotics PTY LTD
Tennibot
UniExo
Woobo Inc.
The winners of last year’s Robot Launch 2016 startup competition, Vidi Systems, were acquired by Cognex earlier this year for an undisclosed amount. Some of the other finalists have gone on to expo at TechCrunch, and other competitions. Franklin Robotics raised $312,810 in a Kickstarter campaign, more than doubling their target. Business Insider called Franklin’s Tertill weed whacker ‘a Roomba for your garden’.
Modular Science were accepted into YCombinators Summer 2017 intake, and Dash Robotics, the spin off from Berkeley Biomimetics Lab, make the Kamigami foldable toy robots that are now being sold at all major retailers.
This year, the top 8 startups will receive space in the Silicon Valley Robotics Cowork Space @CircuitLaunch in Oakland. The space has lots of room for testing, full electronics lab and various prototyping equipment such as laser cutters, cnc machines, 3d printers. It’s located near Oakland International Airport and is convenient to San Francisco and the rest of Silicon Valley. There are also plenty of meeting and conference rooms. We also hold networking/mentor/investor events so you can connect with the robotics community.
Finalists also receive invaluable exposure on Robohub.org to an audience of robotics professionals and those interested in the latest robotics technologies, as well as the experience of pitching their startup to an audience of top VCs, investors and experts.
Robot Launch is supported by Silicon Valley Robotics to help more robotics startups present their technology and business models to prominent investors. Silicon Valley Robotics is the not-for-profit industry group supporting innovation and commercialization in robotics technologies. The Robotics Hub is the first investor in advanced robotics and AI startups, helping to get from ‘zero to one’ with their network of robotics and market experts.

Founded in 2014 and backed by the likes of Salesforce billionaire Marc Benioff with $20 million (£16 million), this Tel Aviv-based company says it has taught an algorithm to identify early signs of breast cancer with the help of thousands of previous mammograms.
That constantly improving algorithm — trained using a technique known as machine learning, which is a type of AI that equips computers with the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed — is now better than radiologists using the best computer aided detection (CAD) methods for mammography, the company claims.
In December, the company launched a service that allows people to upload their medical imaging scans such as CTs and mammograms to Zebra's platform, and receive an automated analysis for key clinical conditions.

Cortica was founded in 2007 by a team of researchers from Israel's renowned Technion University. Today it has over 100 staff in Israel, New York, and China.
The company has reverse-engineered the cortex in our brains to enable what it claims is a new generation of biologically inspired computational technologies. Today the company's technology can identify what's in photos. It can index and tag images in real time, enabling users, advertisers, and publishers to understand them better.
"Most of the time users want to engage with their photos," said Cortica CEO and cofounder Igal Raichelgauz on a call with Business Insider. "The big challenge of AI here is to show them the photos that will surprise and delight."

Mobileye develops vision-based advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). The systems can provide drivers with a warning if they are about to have a collision and help them to avoid the incident. Mobileye's HQ and main R&D centre is in Jerusalem but it also has offices in New York, Shanghai, Tokyo, and Dusseldorf.
Founded by Ziv Aviram and Ammon Shashua in 1999, the more established company was acquired by Intel in March for $15.3 billion (£11.8 billion), making it one of Israel's largest tech exits.

StoreDot
StoreDot's founder and CEO Doron Myersdorf told Business Insider that the batteries his company is making can charge a smartphone in one minute, compared with an hour and a half for the average device. That could revolutionise people's lives.
The company is using proprietary amino acids in place of some of a typical battery’s lithium components in order to achieve the battery breakthrough. The batteries are due to go into mass production in 2017, according to Bloomberg.
StoreDot has caught the eye of Korean electronics giant Samsung, which has helped the company to raise $66 million (£51 million)."

Share on LinkedInTweet about this on TwitterShare on Facebook
The winners of the 2018 Agfunder Innovation Awards were announced on Tuesday, March 20 at the World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit in San Francisco, CA.
Last year, we awarded 23 startups across five categories. Since then those winners have raised over $650 million, including one of the year’s largest rounds, a $110 million Series D for Farmers Business Network. And we even had an exit with Blue River Technology — winner of the Most Innovative US Startups at Series A and Beyond category — acquired by strategic heavyweight John Deere.
This year we have refined our process to make it easier for our network to participate and created a shortlist of candidates for each category to vote from. To remain as impartial in the process as possible, we put together a nomination committee of global agrifood tech investors to nominate startups into each category and we asked our community to vote. 5,000 votes later these are the winners.

Asia Pacific’s premier AgriTech and FoodTech competition
Future Food Asia (Finalists) (2018)
https://techstory.in/future-food-asia-awards-2018-finalists/
https://futurefoodasia.com/2018/02/announcing-the-launch-of-…
"Future Food Asia announced that 10 start-ups have been selected as the 2018 finalists and will join the award event on May 23rd in Singapore to showcase their solutions and technologies for a chance to win US$100,000. On the day of the event Enterprise Singapore will also award up to four winners S$50,000 Startup SG grants, selected in consultation with the FFAA judging panel.
With population, urbanization, land scarcity and global warming challenges continuing to loom, nurturing innovators working towards sustainable food solutions remains essential. The Future Food Asia Award returns after a highly successful inaugural year, to recognize the leading AgriTech and FoodTech start-ups that are creating solutions to address the ever present and growing challenges in the food industry.
“Future Food Asia was formed from the belief that Asia-Pacific has a major role to play in this nascent but most relevant innovation vertical, and that it delivers solid investment opportunities to forward-thinking investors,” said Isabelle Decitre, Founder and CEO of ID Capital, the lead organizer of the Future Food Asia Award.
She adds, “The diversity of the finalists and their technology solutions once again showcases the vitality of the region, as well as its capacity to tackle not only region-specific challenges but global ones too.”
The event rewards the best applicants to the FFAA annual competition. It also promotes open innovation in the region with the goal to catalyze and align an ecosystem to cope with the challenges of food. The competitive application process began in the first week of February and closed on April 3, 2018.
Startups from 19 different countries participated and applications grew by 30 per cent compared to 2017, demonstrating the momentum around technology innovations for the food & agriculture industry.
Future Food Asia Award has the continued support from Singapore Economic Development Board; Archer Daniels Midland Company (NYSE: ADM), one of the world’s largest agricultural processors and food ingredient providers; lead public research agency A*STAR (Agency for Science, Technology and Research); and enterprise development agency Enterprise Singapore.
It is joined by global science-based company Royal DSM, active in nutrition science and innovation across Asia Pacific, and global agricultural commodities and food merchant Louis Dreyfus Company.
The selection of the 10 finalists was determined by the experienced and diverse jury members: Gerard Jacquin, former Director of Partnerships, Transfer and Innovation at INRA, Europe’s leading agricultural research institute; Dr. Ralph Graichen, Director of Food and Nutrition at A*STAR’s Biomedical Research Council; Victoria de la Huerga, Vice President of ADM Ventures, Archer Daniels Midland Company; and Isabelle Decitre, Founder and CEO of ID Capital.
The event will be hosted on 23 May 2018 at Matrix Auditorium, Biopolis, in Singapore. You can register here

Liquid biopsies mark a step forward in the fight against cancer. First, they are an alternative where traditional tissue-based biopsies are not possible. Second, they provide a full spectrum of information compared to tissue samples, which only reflect the information available in the sample. Lastly, by homing in on circulating-tumor DNA (ctDNA), genetic material that routinely finds its way from cancer cells into the bloodstream, disease progression or resistance to treatment can be spotted much faster than otherwise relying on symptoms or imaging.
2. Harvesting clean water, from air
The ability to extract clean water from air is not new, however existing techniques require high moisture levels and a lot of electricity. This is changing. A team from MIT and University of California, Berkeley has successfully tested a process using porous crystals that convert the water using no energy at all. Another approach, by a start-up called Zero Mass Water from Arizona is able to produce 2-5 litres of water a day based on an off-grid solar system.
3. Deep learning, for visual tasks
Computers are beginning to recognize images better than humans. Thanks to deep learning, an emerging field of artificial intelligence, computer-vision technologies are increasingly being used in applications as diverse as driving autonomous vehicles, medical diagnostics, damage assessment for insurance claims and monitoring of water levels and crop yield.
4. Liquid fuels, from sunshine
Can we mimic the humble leaf to create an artificial photosynthesis to generate and store energy? The prospects are looking increasingly positive. The answer lies in using sunlight-activated catalysts to split water molecules into water and hydrogen, and then using the same hydrogen to convert CO2 into hydrocarbons. Such a closed system - wherein CO2 emitted by combustion is then transformed back into fuel instead of the atmosphere - could prove to be revolutionary for the solar and wind industries.
5. The Human Cell Atlas
An international collaboration aimed at deciphering the human body, called the Human Cell Atlas, was launched in October 2016. The project, backed by the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative aims to identify every cell type in every tissue; learn exactly which genes, proteins and other molecules are active in each type and the processes which control that activity; determine where the cells are located exactly; how the cells normally interact with one another, and what happens to the body’s functioning when genetic or other aspects of a cell undergo change, among other things. The end product will be an invaluable tool for improving and personalizing health care.
6. Precision farming
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is providing farmers with a new set of tools to boost crop yield and quality while reducing water and chemical use. Sensors, robots, GPS, mapping tools and data-analytics software are all being used to customize the care that plants need. While the prospect of using drones to capture plant health in real time may be some way off for most of the world’s farmers, low-tech techniques are coming online too. Salah Sukkarieh, of the University of Sydney, for instance, has demonstrated a streamlined, low-cost monitoring system in Indonesia that relies on solar power and cell phones.
7. Affordable catalysts, for green vehicles
Progress is being made on a promising zero-emission technology, the hydrogen-fed fuel cell. Progress to date has been stymied by the high price of catalysts which contain platinum. However, much progress has been made reducing reliance on this rare and expensive metal, and the latest developments involve catalysts that include no platinum, or in some cases no metal at all.
8. Genomic vaccines
Vaccines based on genes are superior to more conventional ones in a number of ways. They are faster to manufacture for one thing, which is crucial at times of a violent outbreak. Compared to manufacturing proteins in cell cultures or eggs, producing genetic material should also be simpler and less expensive. A genomics-based approach to vaccines also enables more rapid adaptation in the event of a pathogen mutating, and finally allows scientists to identify people who are resistant to a pathogen, isolate the antibodies that provide that protection, and design a gene sequence that will induce a person’s cells to produce those antibodies.
9. Sustainable design, of communities
Applying green construction to multiple buildings at once has the potential to revolutionize the amount of energy and water we consume. Sending locally-generated solar power to a smart microgrid could reduce electricity consumption by half and reduce carbon emissions to zero if a project currently under development at the University of California at Berkeley Goes to plan. Meanwhile, the same project’s plan to re-design water systems so that waste water from toilets and drains is treated and re-used on site, with rainwater diverted to toilets and washers, could cut demand for potable water by 70%.
10. Quantum computing
Quantum computers’ almost limitless potential has only ever been matched by the difficulty and cost of their construction. Which explains why today the small ones that have been built have not yet managed to exceed the power of supercomputers. But progress is being made and in 2016 the technology firm IBM provided the public access to the first quantum computer in the cloud. This has already led to more than 20 academic papers being published using the tool and today more than 50 start-ups and large corporations worldwide are focused on making quantum computing a reality. With such progress behind us, the word on people’s lips now is “Quantum Ready.” "

Martin Green – Australia’s “father of PV” – beats Elon Musk, to Global Energy Prize; UNSW’s Martin Green beats Elon Musk for major energy prize for his work in REVOLUTIONISING efficiency, +helping make solar PV cheapest energy option
https://reneweconomy.com.au/martin-green-australias-father-p…
"Australia’s “father of PV,” UNSW Scientia Professor Martin Green, has been awarded the 2018 Global Energy Prize, beating out a shortlist that included Tesla’s Elon Musk, and becoming the first Australian to win the $820,000 gong.
The University of New South Wales said on Thursday that Professor Green had been selected from 44 contenders from 14 countries by a committee of leading scientists, to share the prize with Russian scientist Sergey Alekseenko, an expert in thermal power engineering.
Green was honoured, UNSW said, for revolutionising the efficiency and cost of solar photovoltaics and making it the lowest cost option for bulk electricity supply.
And rightly so – Professor Green, who is Director of the Australian Centre for Advanced Photovoltaics at UNSW, is a world-renowned as a leading specialist in both monocrystalline and polycrystalline silicon solar cells.
In 1989, his team supplied the solar cells for the first photovoltaic system with an energy conversion efficiency of 20 per cent. In 2014, he headed the development team that first demonstrated the conversion of sunlight into electricity with an efficiency of 40 per cent.
Professor Green also invented the PERC solar cell, which accounted for more than 24 per cent of the world’s silicon cell manufacturing capacity at the end of 2017.
On top of all that, the research group he founded at UNSW – the largest and best-known university-based PV research group in the world – is broadly credited with driving the enormous reductions in costs in solar PV, largely through the work of his students in establishing manufacturing centres in Asia.
“Not everyone would agree with that attribution,” said Green in an interview with RE on Friday – adding that Tesla’s Musk would have been his pick for the prize, for his crucial work of putting electric vehicles on the agenda.
And the Professor was keen to pay tribute to his UNSW solar stablemates, Zhengrong Shi, who left Australia to form Suntech Power in the US; and Stuart Wenham – the “Einstein” of the solar world, who died, aged just 60, in December last year.
“In particular, Stuart created this computer program that was a virtual production line,” Green told RE. “That overcame the language barrier in training hoards of Chinese engineers in setting up these (solar PV) production lines.”
Some 15 to 20 years later, and the global growth of solar PV – now the cheapest new form of energy generation – has soared beyond virtually all predictions.
“If you look at the figures from the last few years growth has consistently stayed at around 40 per cent a year,” Green said.
“If it keeps growing at that rate, we’re looking at hitting a terawatt of solar production in 2024.
“Even if it slows to growth of 20 per cent a year, we are on track to reach production levels of a TW a year in the late 2020s.
“And that’s the area where you can really start cutting greenhouse gases.”
And that’s what it’s all about – a cheap transition that does not cost more than business as usual, in fact will likely deliver savings – although some people, and some governments, prefer to remain none the wiser.
Which is why awards like this one are so important.
“I think (this is) a good opportunity to get across the message that things have changed with solar and that it’s the best option out there,” Green said.
“That’s an important message to get out.
“There’s a growing consensus that we’re going to get most of our energy out of solar down the track.
“It’s not a matter having to help solar along. It’s not about removing the last remaining barriers – and getting out of the way of (renewable energy),” he said.
Green said removing barriers often meant changing regulations to make them consistent with a solar type of future, as well as overcoming political resistance in places like Australia and the US. "

“Even if it slows to growth of 20 per cent a year, we are on track to reach production levels of a TW a year in the late 2020s.
“And that’s the area where you can really start cutting greenhouse gases.”
And that’s what it’s all about – a cheap transition that does not cost more than business as usual, in fact will likely deliver savings – although some people, and some governments, prefer to remain none the wiser.
Which is why awards like this one are so important.
“I think (this is) a good opportunity to get across the message that things have changed with solar and that it’s the best option out there,” Green said.
“That’s an important message to get out.
“There’s a growing consensus that we’re going to get most of our energy out of solar down the track.
“It’s not a matter having to help solar along. It’s not about removing the last remaining barriers – and getting out of the way of (renewable energy),” he said.
Green said removing barriers often meant changing regulations to make them consistent with a solar type of future, as well as overcoming political resistance in places like Australia and the US. "

Clean Energy Council Awards (winners) (2018)
www.cleanenergysummit.com.au/awards.html
"The Clean Energy Council Awards, presented at the Australian Clean Energy Summit Gala Dinner, recognise excellence in the clean energy sector.
2018 Clean Energy Council Awards winners
Congratulations to the winners of the 2018 Clean Energy Council Awards.
Outstanding Contribution to Industry Award winner - Nigel Morris
The Clean Energy Council has awarded the Outstanding Contribution to Industry Award to Nigel Morris, a pioneer of the Australian solar industry through his work at Rainbow Power Company, BP Solar, RoofJuice and Solar Analytics.
Nigel is a determined advocate for solar power and has been a champion of quality and integrity throughout his 25-year career in the solar industry. He serves as a mentor to many, is a blogger and podcaster and was a driver behind the establishment of the CEC's Solar Retailer Code of Conduct.
Innovation Award winner - Energy Queensland
Energy Queensland, partnering with the Queensland Government's Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy, won the Innovation Award for developing a solution that delivered affordable access to renewable energy for public housing tenants in Lockhart River. Residents of the remote community depended heavily on diesel power, and the project delivered solar and storage with intelligent control systems. The money saved from reducing diesel use is being returned to the community.
Business Community Engagement Award winner - TasNetworks
TasNetworks worked with the Australian National University and ARENA to turn 40 homes on Tasmania’s Bruny Island into “mini power stations”. The project involved installing rooftop solar and batteries, along with energy management software from Reposit Power that allows households to actively trade the energy they produce and store with their electricity provider. The project will help reduce diesel use and the island’s dependence on the cable connecting it with Tasmania.
Award finalists
The quality of entries for the 2018 awards was exceptional. See below for the 2018 finalists.
Innovation Award finalists
Aalborg CSP provided the concentrated solar thermal technology for Sundrop Farms in South Australia, which uses a combination of sea water and sunlight to grow vegetables in the desert. The highly innovative project grows 17,000 tonnes of tomatoes annually, representing 15 per cent of the country’s tomato market. The technology produces solar energy and desalinates sea water from the nearby Spencer Gulf.
[b]Energy Developments[/b] worked with ARENA to deliver the Coober Pedy Renewable Hybrid project for the District Council of Coober Pedy. Through a mix of wind, solar, batteries and advanced control systems, the project was able to reduce diesel use and emissions at a remote, iconic Australian mining town. The project successfully integrated variable renewable sources to provide a reliable power system.
Tesla and Neoen partnered with the South Australian Government to build the world’s largest lithium battery. The project benefited from the personal involvement of Tesla founder Elon Musk, whose tweets became international news and gave the project plenty of public attention. The Hornsdale Power Reserve was delivered within the self-imposed 100-day deadline, in time for the 2017 summer.
Business Community Engagement Award finalists
BJCE Australia offered clean energy grants to residents living within 5 km of the Gullen Range Wind Farm. An energy audit helps people understand the savings they can make to both their carbon emissions and power bills, and a second phase allows them to apply for a solar hot water or solar power system, or an energy efficiency package. The program is intended to run for the life of the wind farm and create positive relationships with the community.
Synergy partnered with the Science Teachers Association of Western Australia to create the Synergy Schools Solar Challenge. The idea was to get people in the community excited about the potential of new clean energy technologies such as solar to meet future energy needs. As part of the challenge, students in Year 6 and Year 8 were sent solar car kits, which helped them understand and apply the science behind renewable energy by building and racing them throughout the term.
Awards ceremony
The 2018 Clean Energy Council Awards were presented on Tuesday 31 July at the NAB Gala Dinner at the 2018 Australian Clean Energy Summit.

"Harver
Harver founder and CEO Barend Raaff was working at online strategy and marketing startup Kominski when a friend and CEO of a large call centre complained of huge staff turnover. Realising hiring decisions were to blame, he developed AI-powered pre-selection platform TalentPitch to replace CVs with online judgment, personality and intelligence tests. Harver’s algorithms also use the data to calculate a candidate’s suitability. As of January 2018, the company had raised $15.6 million (£11.5 million) and boasts Zappos, Netflix, Booking.com, Vodafone, OpenTable and Casper as clients. At the end of 2017, Harver adapted TalentPitch for smaller companies. The elevator pitch? “Organisations using Harver hire better people, period,” says Raaff. harver.com

Hiber
When Dutch satellite start-up Magnitude Space rebranded last year, it chose the name Hiber for two reasons, according to co-founder and CFO Coen Janssen – the LPA Network provider connects nano-satellites with modems that effectively sleep 99 per cent of the time – until a satellite flies overhead. “It’s like they are hibernating – hence Hiber,” he explains. “And it was also one of the last unclaimed five-letter words on the internet.” Having secured €3 million in private funding and backing from the European Space Agency, Hiber launches two small satellites in spring 2018. Janssen is targeting the likes of truck trailers, hazardous chemicals, cattle in Australia and trawlers at sea to host its cheap tracking devices as it scales production in 2019. hiber.global

Shypple
Over 90 per cent of the world’s international trade travels by ship, but when Shypple founder Jarell Habets worked on logistics for the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, he found the industry dominated by freight forwarding agents – middlemen in manual organisations which make shipping slow, error-prone and expensive. “They’re like travel agents in 1996,” he argues. “But they have no competition from disruptors.” He launched Shypple the same year. The company provides a digital dashboard for businesses to search and book freight shipping directly – benchmarking quotes and offering real-time tracking. In February, the company received undisclosed funding from regional state investor the Brabant Development Corporation to finance their international expansion.

Helloprint’s platform connects smaller print producers with over 200,000 customers across the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Italy, United Kingdom, Spain, and Ireland. Offering free online designs and free delivery, the company has seen growth of 4,000 per cent in the last four years. In February, the company closed an undisclosed multi-million euro funding round with existing investors Bregal Unternehmerkapital and Project A, aimed at expanding its European network. helloprint.co.uk

Fairphone’s bold launch in 2013 promised easily repairable smartphones built to last using only sustainable, ethically mined materials. The Fairphone 1 raised funds from crowdsourcing and sold some 135,000 handsets – but struggled when suppliers retired the necessary spare parts and stopped releasing chip software updates. 2015’s Fairphone 2 fared better. In September 2017, co-founder Bas van Abel secured €6.5 million from social venture capital fund Pymwymic – making it one of the top ten fund raising Amsterdam startups of the year – to scale its approach to building sustainable electronics “throughout the entire electronics value chain, including material sourcing, production, distribution and recycling,” according to van Abel. Expect the Fairphone 3 this autumn. fairphone.com
Ohpen
When Chris Zadeh, CEO of Ohpen, ran an online broker, he spent ten years “cursing unreliable technology that was almost impossible to adapt to our needs,” he explains. “We put our money where our mouth was and created a complete new core banking engine from scratch.” Ohpen’s premise is simple – existing banks and financial service providers are hampered by legacy systems. Ohpen’s cloud-based core banking SaaS replaces the entire back end, allowing clients to focus on front-end experience and brand differentiation. In July 2017, Ohpen secured €15 million from private equity firm Amerborgh, which then led a €25 million Series C round in February 2018 – the cash will help expand into France, Canada, Australia and the United States. ohpen.com
MessageBird
MessageBird offers an SMS, voice and video platform for companies and developers that powers, for instance, the verification messages you get when you sign up for a new app. It’s a fast-growing market with more than a dozen cloud-based firms. MessageBird founder and chief executive Robert Vis bootstrapped the company’s launch in 2011, forged deals and built interfaces with 220 telecom carriers worldwide to build the only platform running on telecoms carrier-grade infrastructure and not the internet – making it faster, more reliable and cheaper, says Vis. In October 2017, MessageBird’s stealth years ended - it landed $60 million in series A funding - the largest ever early-stage venture capital investment into a European software company, led by Accel Partners with Atomico and Y-Combinator to fuel aggressive expansion. messagebird.com

Hotelchamp
Travel agents may have disappeared from the high street but their replacements – travel booking sites – dominate the travel market with commission fees of up to 30%, hitting hotels turnover, according to Kristian Valk, co-founder and CEO of Hotelchamp. Valk launched the company after watching a friend click from booking site to hotel web page then back to the site to pay. The company’s SaaS AI offers personalised incentives, special offers and best possible prices to encourage direct booking. Launched in April 2015, the company raised €1.7 million seed funding from a wide pool of private investors, returning for a €2.25 million round in August 2017. Clients include Bilderberg Hotels, Corinthia Hotels, Palazzo Versace and Apex Hotels. hotelchamp.com
Felyx
With the city’s drive to reduce carbon and liberal attitude to two wheels, Felyx, a shared electric scooter platform, is as Amsterdam as the Amstel. Co-founders Maarten Poot and Quinten Selhorst raised €400,000 from private investors and €450,000 from a crowdfunding round to launch in July 2017. An app allows registered users – currently waiting list only places – to locate, reserve and unlock available e-scooters. A ride costs 30 cents per minute, and the system is free-floating – scooters can be left anywhere. When the battery drops to 20 per cent, the scooter signals HQ and a team member comes to recharge it. felyx.nl"

"Harver
Harver founder and CEO Barend Raaff was working at online strategy and marketing startup Kominski when a friend and CEO of a large call centre complained of huge staff turnover. Realising hiring decisions were to blame, he developed AI-powered pre-selection platform TalentPitch to replace CVs with online judgment, personality and intelligence tests. Harver’s algorithms also use the data to calculate a candidate’s suitability. As of January 2018, the company had raised $15.6 million (£11.5 million) and boasts Zappos, Netflix, Booking.com, Vodafone, OpenTable and Casper as clients. At the end of 2017, Harver adapted TalentPitch for smaller companies. The elevator pitch? “Organisations using Harver hire better people, period,” says Raaff. harver.com
Otrium
“Fashion brands struggle with an abundance of excess inventory collecting dust in a warehouse,” explains Otrium’s cofounder Milan Daniels, 26. Launched two years ago by Daniels and Max Klijnstra, 27, Otrium is effectively Shopify for fashion brands, providing the e-commerce technology stack and logistics handling to create online outlet/clearance stores. The company’s technology and marketplace full-service offer is aimed at keeping entry costs low – helping up-and-coming brands in particular shift excess inventory, although each brand does ship its own orders. Claiming 300,000 users and 60 brands across Benelux countries, Otrium recently raised €750,000 (£662,000) – bringing total funding to €1.6 million (£1.4 million) – to fuel international expansion. otrium.nl

Hiber
When Dutch satellite start-up Magnitude Space rebranded last year, it chose the name Hiber for two reasons, according to co-founder and CFO Coen Janssen – the LPA Network provider connects nano-satellites with modems that effectively sleep 99 per cent of the time – until a satellite flies overhead. “It’s like they are hibernating – hence Hiber,” he explains. “And it was also one of the last unclaimed five-letter words on the internet.” Having secured €3 million in private funding and backing from the European Space Agency, Hiber launches two small satellites in spring 2018. Janssen is targeting the likes of truck trailers, hazardous chemicals, cattle in Australia and trawlers at sea to host its cheap tracking devices as it scales production in 2019. hiber.global

Shypple
Over 90 per cent of the world’s international trade travels by ship, but when Shypple founder Jarell Habets worked on logistics for the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, he found the industry dominated by freight forwarding agents – middlemen in manual organisations which make shipping slow, error-prone and expensive. “They’re like travel agents in 1996,” he argues. “But they have no competition from disruptors.” He launched Shypple the same year. The company provides a digital dashboard for businesses to search and book freight shipping directly – benchmarking quotes and offering real-time tracking. In February, the company received undisclosed funding from regional state investor the Brabant Development Corporation to finance their international expansion.

Helloprint
Europe’s print industry is worth around €160 billion per year, according to market analysts Smithers Pira – larger than the continents €135 billion car export trade. The vast majority of these orders still take place offline, according to Hans Scheffer, Helloprint co-founder and CEO. Helloprint’s platform connects smaller print producers with over 200,000 customers across the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Italy, United Kingdom, Spain, and Ireland. Offering free online designs and free delivery, the company has seen growth of 4,000 per cent in the last four years. In February, the company closed an undisclosed multi-million euro funding round with existing investors Bregal Unternehmerkapital and Project A, aimed at expanding its European network. helloprint.co.uk

Eco-friendly startups are becoming increasingly prevalent, and Sulapac is one of the frontrunners. Using renewable and sustainable raw materials, the company, which won the Green Alley Award for startups in the circular economy, is creating fully biodegradable packaging material that can be used to package watches or create tubs for makeup. The Finnish co-founders were inspired by the grand woodland that surrounds them – though the wood for Sulapac’s material comes from nearby Nordic forests. A number of different cosmetic and jewellery companies have started to use Sulapac’s greener, cleaner packaging materials. sulapac.com

Founded last year, this startup helps to smooth the rigmarole of selling your home by using AI to take away many of the complications – including pesky real estate brokers. Co-founders Rudi Skogman and Olli Gunst have raised €1.6 million from investors to develop the company. Blok is still in its earliest stages of development, but the first signs are promising: in its first year of existence, the company’s AI helped sell 70 apartments.

Canatu
Named after carbon nanotube, one of the materials first studied at Aalto University’s nanomaterials lab (to which the firm owes its inspiration), Canatu is one of Finland’s biggest physical tech success stories. The company, founded in 2004, has more than 100 patents, and supplies conductive films and touch sensors to touch module vendors and manufacturers working in the consumer electronics and automotive industries. Its main development is an all-new material it called Carbon NanoBud, which can be formed into almost any shape without breaking, thanks to a high stretch rate and small bending radius. canatu.com
A startup guide to Helsinki
WHERE TO VISIT
Teurastamo was once a working abattoir, but since 2012 has been an arty haven for culture and fantastic food. More than a dozen businesses have set up shop here, including restaurants and roasteries.
WHERE TO PLAY
Kuudes Linja is the place to catch live music in Helsinki. And if you can’t get in, hop next door to Kaiku or Siltanen – both equally excellent.
Carbo Culture
Turning methane-spewing biomass into high-carbon charcoal might not seem like the cleanest process in the world, but Helsinki startup Carbo Culture – co-founded by a Californian, a Belgian and a Finn – is a green company. Its patented technology transfers waste into charcoal in a carbon neutral way, allowing a cleaner, more efficient way to make charcoal and charcoal products. Miraculously, the process also permanently sequesters carbon – one of the biggest pollutants in the process – so that it doesn’t harm the planet. The tech managed to lure the likes of Rovio chairman Mika Ihamuotila to stump up €550,000 of seed funding earlier this year. carboculture.com
HappyOrNot
One of Finland’s biggest success stories, HappyOrNot is the company behind the real-time mood sensor stands that you see at the end of airport security checks, on shop floors and by office doorways. The company started out with a single terminal in a small supermarket and now has countless terminals logging hundreds of millions of responses at airports – including Heathrow – and businesses across the world. They’ve also secured €13.2 million in investment. With that success, co-founders Heikki Väänänen and Ville Levaniemi will be hitting the big green smiley face button. happy-or-not.com
ICEYE
Finland’s first-ever commercial satellite – and the world’s first synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite under 100 kilograms – was launched into orbit from India earlier this year. The payload that went up into space was the ICEYE-X1, which provides a bird’s-eye view of the planet, even in darkness and through cloud cover, using the SAR technology. The ICEYE-X1 launch was just the first of many: using $13 million of investment raised last August, ICEYE plan to launch 18 microsatellites into orbit, which will beam back data the company can then sell to maritime operators, insurance firms, and agriculture businesses. iceye.com

Oura
The quantified-self movement continues apace, with Helsinki startup Oura taking it in an altogether more fashionable direction. Its healthtech wearables aren’t rubbery plastic bands that slip around your wrist but sleek, stripped-back rings. More than 15,000 Oura rings were pre-ordered in the first two months they were available to reserve, with more than half of orders coming from the health-conscious United States. The ring tracks sleep patterns, making suggestions for users to change their lifestyles to restore their sleep to a more healthy routine. Big things are expected from the company, which was named one of Finland’s most promising startups earlier this year. ouraring.com
Varjo
Virtual reality tech has never fully lived up to its promise. Whether it’s the dizzy spells some people feel after donning a headset or the slight unreality as a result of fuzzy graphics, something feels amiss. Varjo aims to counteract both problems by increasing the resolution on VR displays, including the Rift and Vive by 17 times – taking it up to the same resolution we see through our eyes. In the two short years the company has been in existence, it’s managed to bring VR forwards leaps and bounds – and raised nearly €13 million in the process. varjo.com
Wolt
Uber Eats and Deliveroo may have a dominant hand in many of the world’s markets, but food delivery service Wolt is making major inroads across the Nordics and Baltics. It claims more than 1,400 restaurants are signed up to the service in over 20 cities, while backers including Supercell CEO Ilkka Paananen and Skype founder Niklas Zennström have helped the company raise €13.3 million to date, with plans for future funding rounds on the horizon. Convenience is king for modern-day consumers, and Wolt – founded in 2014 – recognised that earlier than most. wolt.com "

For decades, production processes have barely evolved for the majority of small businesses who make up Europe’s manufacturing industry, says Gonçalo Fortes, Prodsmart’s co-founder and CEO. His company sells a layer of virtual automation software which converts smartphones and tablets into sensors, to transform any manufacturing plant into a digital “smart factory”. Its real-time process-tracking collects data directly from the shop floor, eliminating the need for paper and providing real-time analytics to inform waste reduction and efficiency improvements. Prodsmart raised $150,000 (£112,000) from 500 Startups at launch and secured a seed funding round of $1.5 million in February 2018 from Join Capital, Caixa Capital, Innovation Nest and angel investors. prodsmart.com

Talkdesk
Talkdesk co-founders Cristina Fonseca and Tiago Paiva were inspired by success at a Twilio hackathon to base Talkdesk on the Silicon Valley model of “being truly disruptive with a capacity to scale fast”, says Fonseca. The company provides call-centre software that allows new centres to launch without the traditional expensive big switches and routers. Talkdesk customers require no hardware, phones, coding or downloads – just an internet connection. Backers, include Salesforce Ventures, DFJ and Storn Ventures, have helped funding for the San Francisco- and Lisbon-based company rise to $24.5 million. talkdesk.com
Codacy
Codacy was born from co-founders Jaime Jorge and João Caxaria’s frustration at having to manually review endless lines of code in previous software development and engineering jobs. Its automated platform integrates into existing systems and syncs with tools such as GitHub Enterprise to constantly review lines of code and search for mistakes – helping, according to Jorge, developers work faster. An August 2017 funding round of $5.1 million, led by Seedcamp, Faber Ventures, JOIN Capital, EQT Ventures and Caixa Capital, takes total investment to $6.7 million. The company now counts PayPal, Adobe, Cancer Research UK and Deliveroo among its customers. codacy.com
Veniam
Co-founders João Barros and Susana Sargento developed technology to turn vehicles into wireless hotspots during their time as professors at the Universities of Aveiro and Porto respectively. They then partnered with former Zipcar CEO Robin Chase and CTO Roy Russell to roll out Veniam’s in-vehicle Wi-Fi service across Porto and Singapore. The company now plans to provide cloud-based software linking and guiding autonomous vehicles. “AVs [autonomous vehicles] can scan the road and surrounding vehicles, but they can’t know about what’s ahead or what the surrounding vehicles intend to do unless they’re connected,” Barros explains. The company has raised $26.9 million, led by Verizon Ventures. veniam.com
Sensei
Sensei founders Vasco Portugal, Joana Rafael and Paulo Carreira took their fledgling business-intelligence platform for retail from the Technical University of Lisbon to the Techstars METRO Retail Accelerator Berlin in 2017. This resulted in February 2018’s €500,000 pre-seed funding from German retailer METRO and Portugal’s Sonae. The company turns any installed camera into a powerful sensor to capture and raw in-store digital data. The big idea, according to the founders, is to build customer profiles to increase sales. sensei.tech

WHERE TO EAT
Copenhagen Coffee Lab, Escolas Gerais 34, Alfama. Founded in Denmark in 2013, Lisbon’s mini-chain of Scandinavian-style coffee shops has Wi-Fi – despite some tables having a “no laptops” policy. The venue’s regulars love its understated Scandi cool for meetings and coffee breaks. copenhagencoffeelab.com
WHERE TO WORK
Second Home, Time Out Market, Mercado da Ribeira. This upmarket shared workspace is at the heart of the city’s tech community and the centre of the Cais do Sodre district. The nearby Pink Street is great for bars, restaurants and clubs.
DefinedCrowd
With most of the attention in AI focused on developing algorithms, its weak spot – and DefinedCrowd’s USP – is in collating high-quality data that’s properly labelled to train those AIs quickly and efficiently. Founded in 2015 by Amy Du and Daniela Braga, a data scientist and natural-language-processing expert, the company combines its crowd platform Neevo – where anyone can earn money helping label data – with a user interface and an API to search for and select appropriate datasets. The company raised $1.1 million in 2016 – including funds from Amazon and Sony – but has since relied on customer contracts to grow finance. definedcrowd.com
Heptasense
Heptasense co-founders Ricardo Santos and Mauro Peixe started out developing AI software that learns human gestures and emotions to help their elderly relatives navigate modern life. Their pivot was rapid. Launched in January 2017, Heptasense connects to cameras, motion detectors and touchscreens to measure human responses. The company is working with BMW, among others, on hand-gesture controls for drivers and a security company in the US on airport monitoring and threat detection. Santos and Peixe bootstrapped the company, relying on customer contracts for cashflow. “Investors wanted us to focus on three-year projections and follow the footsteps of other companies, but we were doing something different,” says Santos. heptasense.com
Aptoide
Proving the Portuguese appetite for tricky journeys didn’t end with Ferdinand Magellan, Aptoide CEO Paulo Trezentos launched against Google – building a third-party app store for Android and positioning it as an alternative to Google Play. It now hosts more than 750,000 apps, including the likes of Facebook, Instagram and Clash of Clans. Seed funding of €750,000 from Portugal Ventures led to a €3.7 million Series A round in 2015, followed in November 2017 by an $16.8 million Initial Coin Offering using AppCoins – an in-app currency for purchases, game upgrades and paying other users. Coin miners are paid if they engage with advertising – strengthening Aptoide’s ad revenue. aptoide.com
Probe.ly
Nuno Loureiro, Probe.ly’s founder and CEO, spent 15 years fighting hackers. He found testing security complicated – white-hat penetration-testing and bug bounties are the gold standard, but few companies employ both on a daily basis.

"Prodsmart
For decades, production processes have barely evolved for the majority of small businesses who make up Europe’s manufacturing industry, says Gonçalo Fortes, Prodsmart’s co-founder and CEO. His company sells a layer of virtual automation software which converts smartphones and tablets into sensors, to transform any manufacturing plant into a digital “smart factory”. Its real-time process-tracking collects data directly from the shop floor, eliminating the need for paper and providing real-time analytics to inform waste reduction and efficiency improvements. Prodsmart raised $150,000 (£112,000) from 500 Startups at launch and secured a seed funding round of $1.5 million in February 2018 from Join Capital, Caixa Capital, Innovation Nest and angel investors. prodsmart.com
James
Founded in 2013 by João Menano, Samuel Hopkins and Pedro Fonseca, James (formerly CrowdProcess) allows credit-risk managers and banks to create, validate, deploy and monitor regulation-ready, high-performing predictive models. Menano argues that it has become harder and harder for lenders to constantly update systems to cope with new regulations and new software developments, so James attaches itself to existing systems to provide constantly updated machine-learning software specialising in pattern detection. The company has raised $3.9 million in funding from private investors and VCs and opened offices in New York. james.finance

The hottest startups in Stockholm
By Oliver Franklin-Wallis
Talkdesk
Talkdesk co-founders Cristina Fonseca and Tiago Paiva were inspired by success at a Twilio hackathon to base Talkdesk on the Silicon Valley model of “being truly disruptive with a capacity to scale fast”, says Fonseca. The company provides call-centre software that allows new centres to launch without the traditional expensive big switches and routers. Talkdesk customers require no hardware, phones, coding or downloads – just an internet connection. Backers, include Salesforce Ventures, DFJ and Storn Ventures, have helped funding for the San Francisco- and Lisbon-based company rise to $24.5 million. talkdesk.com
Codacy
Codacy was born from co-founders Jaime Jorge and João Caxaria’s frustration at having to manually review endless lines of code in previous software development and engineering jobs. Its automated platform integrates into existing systems and syncs with tools such as GitHub Enterprise to constantly review lines of code and search for mistakes – helping, according to Jorge, developers work faster. An August 2017 funding round of $5.1 million, led by Seedcamp, Faber Ventures, JOIN Capital, EQT Ventures and Caixa Capital, takes total investment to $6.7 million. The company now counts PayPal, Adobe, Cancer Research UK and Deliveroo among its customers. codacy.com
Veniam
Co-founders João Barros and Susana Sargento developed technology to turn vehicles into wireless hotspots during their time as professors at the Universities of Aveiro and Porto respectively. They then partnered with former Zipcar CEO Robin Chase and CTO Roy Russell to roll out Veniam’s in-vehicle Wi-Fi service across Porto and Singapore. The company now plans to provide cloud-based software linking and guiding autonomous vehicles. “AVs [autonomous vehicles] can scan the road and surrounding vehicles, but they can’t know about what’s ahead or what the surrounding vehicles intend to do unless they’re connected,” Barros explains. The company has raised $26.9 million, led by Verizon Ventures. veniam.com
Sensei
Sensei founders Vasco Portugal, Joana Rafael and Paulo Carreira took their fledgling business-intelligence platform for retail from the Technical University of Lisbon to the Techstars METRO Retail Accelerator Berlin in 2017. This resulted in February 2018’s €500,000 pre-seed funding from German retailer METRO and Portugal’s Sonae. The company turns any installed camera into a powerful sensor to capture and raw in-store digital data. The big idea, according to the founders, is to build customer profiles to increase sales. sensei.tech
A startup guide to Lisbon
WHERE TO EAT
Copenhagen Coffee Lab, Escolas Gerais 34, Alfama. Founded in Denmark in 2013, Lisbon’s mini-chain of Scandinavian-style coffee shops has Wi-Fi – despite some tables having a “no laptops” policy. The venue’s regulars love its understated Scandi cool for meetings and coffee breaks. copenhagencoffeelab.com
WHERE TO WORK
Second Home, Time Out Market, Mercado da Ribeira. This upmarket shared workspace is at the heart of the city’s tech community and the centre of the Cais do Sodre district. The nearby Pink Street is great for bars, restaurants and clubs.
DefinedCrowd
With most of the attention in AI focused on developing algorithms, its weak spot – and DefinedCrowd’s USP – is in collating high-quality data that’s properly labelled to train those AIs quickly and efficiently. Founded in 2015 by Amy Du and Daniela Braga, a data scientist and natural-language-processing expert, the company combines its crowd platform Neevo – where anyone can earn money helping label data – with a user interface and an API to search for and select appropriate datasets. The company raised $1.1 million in 2016 – including funds from Amazon and Sony – but has since relied on customer contracts to grow finance. definedcrowd.com
Heptasense
Heptasense co-founders Ricardo Santos and Mauro Peixe started out developing AI software that learns human gestures and emotions to help their elderly relatives navigate modern life. Their pivot was rapid. Launched in January 2017, Heptasense connects to cameras, motion detectors and touchscreens to measure human responses. The company is working with BMW, among others, on hand-gesture controls for drivers and a security company in the US on airport monitoring and threat detection. Santos and Peixe bootstrapped the company, relying on customer contracts for cashflow. “Investors wanted us to focus on three-year projections and follow the footsteps of other companies, but we were doing something different,” says Santos. heptasense.com
Aptoide
Proving the Portuguese appetite for tricky journeys didn’t end with Ferdinand Magellan, Aptoide CEO Paulo Trezentos launched against Google – building a third-party app store for Android and positioning it as an alternative to Google Play. It now hosts more than 750,000 apps, including the likes of Facebook, Instagram and Clash of Clans. Seed funding of €750,000 from Portugal Ventures led to a €3.7 million Series A round in 2015, followed in November 2017 by an $16.8 million Initial Coin Offering using AppCoins – an in-app currency for purchases, game upgrades and paying other users. Coin miners are paid if they engage with advertising – strengthening Aptoide’s ad revenue. aptoide.com
Probe.ly
Nuno Loureiro, Probe.ly’s founder and CEO, spent 15 years fighting hackers. He found testing security complicated – white-hat penetration-testing and bug bounties are the gold standard, but few companies employ both on a daily basis. Probe.ly’s software runs continuously on apps and sites, searching for flaws and launching attacks to analyse their response. Unlike its competitors, Probe.ly is aimed at developers, not security professionals. Founded in 2016, the company raised €620,000 through winning the Lisbon Challenge acceleration programme and 2017’s Caixa Empreender Award. It launched in private beta in 2017 and, in March 2018, raised €435,000 from investors including Caixa Capital. probe.ly "

"SpaceTime Enterprises
http://spacetime.enterprises/#about
In the so-called New Space Age, a new generation of space startups are taking the industry to new heights, including SpaceTime Enterprises. Its SpaceTime service aims to democratise space by giving consumers and businesses, virtual and augmented reality real-time views of space and immersive space experiences at better than retina level resolution, but starting at ‘loose change’ prices.
Formed in August 2018 SpaceTime Enterprises is a joint venture between boutique space mission consultancy In-Space Missions and REWIND, an Emmy award-winning creative agency specialising in VR/AR experiences.
In addition to delivering innovative VR/AR products where a consumer can experience the Earth 'live', the SpaceTime satellites and service will deliver a whole-Earth, live imagery dataset with applications for news media, meteorology, disaster relief, education, marine pollution and more.

CEO Doug Liddle says: “The time is right to do this now as we leverage a combination of recent advances in low cost nanosatellite platforms, high performance video compression, real time ground station networks and user handset/headset AR/VR technology.”
The plan is to launch an exploratory pathfinder spacecraft in June 2019, which will be followed in early 2020 by the first generation of operational spacecraft.
Yora
www.yorapetfoods.com/about-us
With pets consuming a significant proportion of the world’s meat and fish, and a growing trend for feeding human grade meat to dogs and cats, scientists are asking the question, ‘Is it time we started feeding our four-legged friends something different?’ Insects maybe?
New pet food startup Yora has developed a dog food made from insects, combined with oats, potato and natural botanicals that looks and tastes like regular food. The business was founded by Tom Neish who had calculated that the 500 million pet cats and dogs in the world consume around 23 billion tons of meat each year.
Insects, already being touted as a sustainable solution to global food shortages, are packed with essential proteins, fats, minerals and amino acids. They use a fraction of the resources to farm - Yora’s grubs are reared in a brand new, high tech facility in Holland – and with a 40% insect protein yield, the company has its sights set on revolutionising the pet food market.
Cognetivity
www.cognetivity.com/technology/how-it-works/
One in three children born today will develop dementia in the course of their lifetimes, while the cost of treatment for the disease is expected to reach $2 trillion globally by 2030. However, early diagnosis of dementia has the potential to save $118,000 per patient, and London-based startup Cognetivity has just raised $4.1 million dollars to commercialise a new breakthrough technology that uses AI to improve dementia diagnosis rates across the UK.
Founded by a team of Cambridge PhDs, Cognetivity has developed an integrated cognitive assessment (ICA) test that challenges large portions of the brain with natural images, and is designed as a quick, easy-to-use tool for clinicians.
The five minute test, administered via an iPad, carries out analysis by proprietary AI which clusters test performance in terms of accuracy, speed and image properties to calculate the user’s risk of having early signs of dementia, with a previously unattainable level of accuracy. By diagnosing patients with dementia earlier, doctors will be able to provide faster treatment and ongoing monitoring that can radically improve patients' lives.
ObjectTech
http://www.objecttechgroup.com/
Imagine getting on a plane, flying to any destination, and getting off again, without the hassle of going through passport control. UK tECH startup ObjectTech aims to make that traveler's dream a reality by creating digital passports using technology that combines biometric verification and blockchain technology.
As well as containing the data currently stored in existing e-passport chips, the digital passports will include biometric data such facial recognition or fingerprint data. A key element of the digital passport is that it also protects the privacy of the individual through the creation of what ObjectTech describes as a ‘self-sovereign identity’. The ‘gate-less’ border technology will be tested at Dubai's new airport.
Bee Vectoring Technologies
www.beevt.com/solution
Canadian tech firm Bee Vectoring Technologies (BVT) has developed a commercial alternative to pesticide spraying of food crops using bumblebees to distribute a naturally occurring, organic, inoculating fungus during their natural foraging cycle, makes it one to watch.
The BVT system, which has been in R&D for several years, has commercially reared bumblebees walk through a specialist tray dispenser of organic, inoculating powder before exiting their hive and dropping spores on each plant they visit. The powder contains a naturally occurring fungus, clonostachys rosea. When absorbed by a plant it enables it to effectively block destructive diseases such as botrytis in strawberries.
The process is 100% natural, harmless to bees, animals and humans, and reduces the need for chemical pesticide spraying. In recent large-scale commercial demonstrations on strawberries in Florida, not only did the BVT system deliver comparable or improved disease protection over sprayed chemicals, it also delivered fruit yield increases of between 7% and 29%. In a recent trial on blueberries in Nova Scotia, yield increases were recorded at 77%."

"Climate change and population growth is already putting a huge strain on the global food industry. And with vegetarianism, veganism and other ethic- and eco-based diets on the rise, it has never been more vital that the tech industry starts to change how we eat. Here are five fascinating startups targeting food from all angles. If we’ve missed any out, let us know via Twitter, or below in the comments!
1. Apeel Sciences
Each plant on earth has a peel, or skin, that protects it from the elements. By adding an extra “peel” to the surface of produce, Apeel Sciences, based near Santa Barbara, California, aims to “work with nature – rather than against it” – to make food last longer, reducing waste and water usage, streamlining a fruit and vegetable industry worth $57.2 billion in the United States alone. Apeel produce stays fresh two to three times longer than its regular counterpart: little wonder CBS News calls it “The biggest revolution in food since refrigeration.”
https://apeelsciences.com/our-story/
2. Finless Foods
California-headquartered startup Finless Foods promises that, in the future, fishing will be obsolete – and that it will lead the revolution. The company harnesses cellular biology to create fish and seafood products in a laboratory “at affordable prices, without catching of farming the species on which they’re based.” Finless is starting with Bluefin tuna, a dinner table staple under severe threat from overfishing. Investors are enthused: A June 2018 Seed round drew $3.5m.

3. Memphis Meats
Red Herring has already reported California’s Impossible Foods, a plant-based burger company that last year won a $75m funding round led by Singapore state investment vehicle Temasek. Memphis Meats is an addition to the cell-based meat field, that this January got a big boost from food giant Tyson Foods, whose VC wing Tyson Ventures put an undisclosed sum into the firm. It confirms Memphis’ quick rise to prominence since a 2015 foundation – and mainstream recognition for a company promising to change the meat industry that carries a gigantic environmental cost.

Irvington, NY-based BrightFarms might just be the brightest of the bunch when it comes to tech-based agricultural innovation. The company, founded in 2011, now has over $100m in venture backing, as the local food craze shows no sign of dying. Using LED lights and sensors it is able to grow greens indoors, which it currently sells to huge brands including Kroger and Walmart. BrightFarms has three farms in Pennsylvania, Virginia and Illinois, and is soon to open a large premises in Abilene, Texas. It is using funds to reduce its carbon footprint – a move that cements its dedication to greener farming.

"It’s rare to hear Chicago, America’s third most populous city, mentioned in the same breath as Silicon Valley, New York or Boston when it comes to the country’s tech industry. But make no mistake: exciting innovations are blowing through the Windy City, and they’re making plenty of cash too. A recent Chicago VC Ecosystem report found that Chicagoan startups give investors an MOIC (median multiple on invested capital) of 5.6 times – far ahead of Boston (3.6x), New York City (4.4x) and even the Bay Area (4.2x).
Chicago’s startups have raised over $620m in late-stage VC so far in 2018. That’s more than any year since 2011, when travel site Groupon closed a massive $950m deal. While the city’s reputation has been attacked by President Trump, whose dog-whistling about “inner city” crime has energized his voter base, Chicago business is booming. Here are five of the best tech startups coming out of Chi-Town.
1. project44
This month logistics solution project44 won a $45m funding round led by Silicon Valley-based Sapphire Ventures, bringing its “Amazon-like” service for the industry to national attention. Founded in 2014 the company is one of a number of Chicagoan outfits catering to the growing logistics tech market, and recently announced plans to add 200 jobs in the city. Little wonder, when its lead customers include FedEx, Uline and GE Transportation.

2. Cresco Labs
Another company winning huge investment sums, medical cannabis grower Cresco Labs is backed by $104m in VC cash. The firm aims to lead “the cannabis conversation with a dogged dedication to developing quality cannabis products, each one obsessively researched and refined.” It has corporatized and regulated a wild market, winning admirers across the financial and political spectrum. Cresco already has operations in six US states, and plans to grow further–in both senses–in 2019.

3. FourKites
Another logistics platform, another popular VC target. FourKites, founded in 2014, produces software that allows users to more accurately predict drop-off times, shipping quantities and companies’ supply chain data. It already has over 200 employees and is on a program of rapid growth, following a $35m cash injection this February from several of the industry’s biggest investment names including Bain Capital and Hyde Park Ventures.

4. Truss
Founded in 2016 Truss, which has been described as “Zillow for commercial real estate”, began after Andrew Bokor exited his cybersecurity firm Trustwave the previous year for a whopping $770m. Unsurprisingly investors have come flocking to Bokor’s latest project, targeted specifically at the small business community. Truss already has around 85% of the Chicago downtown area covered, and it’s active in seven other American cities including Austin and Boston.

5. ShipBob
Chicagoans really love their logistics! ShipBob, founded in 2014, is an “e-commerce fulfillment” service that helps SMEs ship quickly and securely. Last week it won a $40m Series C round from Menlo Ventures, bringing the company’s total funding to $62.5m, with a staff count of over 400. That makes ShipBob one of the logistics tech sector’s most exciting up-and-comers, and cements its place among Chicago’s startup elite. Y Combinator recently placed it 56th of its 100 most valuable startups.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 60.546.432 von Popeye82 am 11.05.19 20:18:42Eine Hochrisikoaktia für Hassadeure aber nicht ganz unerotisch: sie regt meine Phantasie an. Ob die Story
stimmt und wenn ja ob sie sich großtechnisch umsetzen läßt bevor die Kasse leer ist kann ich nicht
beurteilen, da es keinen newsflow gibt und dieses wird wohl ersteinmal so bleiben. (Einzige neue Nach-richt konnte lauten: Suspension ASX wegen Verstosses der Bilanzveröffentlichungspflicht, Kraken hat
das ja gerade vorgemacht)
Ein Stück weit ist die Firma für mich vergleichbar mit Kraig Biocraft: beide wollen mit ihrer jeweiligen
Methode neue Standards im schier unendlichen Markt der Textilindustrie setzen. Eine Enzymbrühe
erscheint mir dabei sehr viel leichter handhab- und skalierter als eine Raupenzucht.
Reizvoll finde ich zudem den Gedanken, daß die Brühe wohl auch für 3D Drucker geeignet sein konnte.
Alles in Allem: nicht unerotisch.
Nachtrag: Die Internetseite befindet sich gerade in Überarbeitung und ist wenig ergiebig. Momentan
wirkt sie gerade wie eine Seite eines "Hess Natur" Prospektes.

Der einzigste Sachwert über den ich verfüge ist mein Körper………………..relativ , die Folter ausgenommen.

Nachtrag zu meinem Beitrag 447
Die liquid organic hydrogenous carriers (LOHC) könnten ein Meilenstein in der Handhabung von flüssigem
Wasserstoff werden. Toyota hatte diese schon vor ungefähr 30 Jahren ins Spiel gebracht.
Tankstellenexplosionen wie bei NEL ASA /UNO-X wären ausgeschlossen.
Immerhin gibt es namhafte UNTERSTÜTZER :VOPAK, COVESTRO, MITSUBISHI CORPORATION,MAN und die Forschungsanstalt Jülich.
Das Wittenstein Galaxie Getriebe in einem Radnabenmotor für Automobile wäre ebenfalls der Hammer.
Nippon Denso ist ambitioniert und kapitalkräftig.
Zu meinen Schrunntzen wie sie diese bezeichnen: allesamt AWARD WINNERS )
Ansonsten spare ich auf einen Kandelaber von Motoko Ishii. Verkaufswert 26000 Euro, Wiederverkaufs-
wert 50000 Euro. Japaner und Amis sind wild auf solche Dinge.

Der Radnabenmotor wird kommen. Seit dem Lohner Porsche der im Jahre 1900 vorgestellt wurde krankt
es bis heute am Gewicht. Nippon Denso (NIDEC) hat Marktmacht, ist breit aufgestellt und könnte in den
