Participating Startups

AdVentura Works

AdVentura Works builds a solution for teleoperation of forklifts to help logistic companies tackle employee shortages, reduce cost and improve safety.

4QT

4QT builds high power electric drives to help (small) heavy equipment manufacturers overcome their struggles to electrify. This is done with a modular and fully recyclable solution that reduces both CO2 emissions and fuel consumption by up to 50%. They have trademarks & patents on the motor and the battery and face heavy interest from construction and defense, including 4 paid demonstrators with one of Switzerland’s biggest construction companies and the Swiss army.

SAFE-living by Sedimentum

Sedimentum's SAFE-living solution automatically calls for help in emergencies like falls, fainting, inability to get up, etc., as well as burglaries, and provides peace of mind. The fully proprietary hardware technology senses human motion without requiring residents to wear or operate anything. Privacy is preserved as the system uses neither cameras nor microphones. Paired with an app and 24/7 emergency call service, it minimizes response time and can save lives.

DAAV

DAAV is dedicated to improving the quality of life for people with disabilities by providing enhanced mobility services. Our focus is on robotic transportation for individuals with reduced mobility in indoor environments, with a specific emphasis on Mobility as a Service (MaaS) in airports.
