networking sessions

FlowCube

The FlowCube enables researchers to perform dynamic cell interaction experiments on vertically positioned cell layers, bridging the gap between low-cost static systems and expensive, highly advanced technologies and animal trials.

WatAir

We have developed a cost-effective, durable material that efficiently captures water from air – even in the desert – and releases it only using sunlight, offering a scalable and energy-efficient solution to global water scarcity. Our goal is to revolutionise water access by producing water out of air – anytime, anywhere.

Cancer Biotherapy

We are Silvia and Laura, researchers in macromolecular cancer therapeutics, working toward one goal: curing cancer. Our approach uses a microorganism as a smart mini-robot that detects, targets and destroys tumour cells while sparing healthy ones with minimal side effects.

Hirebuddy

Hirebuddy turns everyone into a recruiter by leveraging personal networks to share job openings. Our referral platform uses an innovative reward system to expand reach across multiple connections, enabling fast, cost-efficient hiring. Initially tackling healthcare labour shortages, our scalable, industry-agnostic solution has proven successful in numerous use cases.

Re:Customize

Re:Customize aims to revolutionise the fashion industry with AI-driven software that automates textile finishing, cutting costs and enabling scalable upcycling. By repurposing embroidery and print machines, we enhance garments efficiently, promoting sustainability and personalised fashion.
