CyanoGuard has developed an innovative quick technology to detect toxic substances in food, water and other samples. The technology combines efficient, non-toxic and easy-to-use indicators for toxins with accurate detection and will improve environmental monitoring, food safety and health care in remote settings and locations.



The idea of Prometheus is to replace whole liver transplantations by repopulating patient livers with transplantable liver cells. The technology will help to circumvent shortage of immune-compatible donor lives.




Insolight aims to simplify sunlight concentration for photovoltaic systems (CPV) by drastically changing the way of tracking the sun throughout the year. They combine the advantages of standard solar panels mounting structure, with the high efficiency of concentrated photovoltaics.
