esvanir: A fully distributed, infrastructure-less, end-to-end secured communication solution with user privacy. The startup aims at building and marketing a fully distributed, infrastructure-less, end-to-end secured communication solution with user privacy as primary concern. Current solutions only focus on security, which does not protect users from powerful adversaries. The product does not require any investment in depreciating assets (i.e., server farm) which also significantly strengthens privacy guarantees, and reduces operating cost.

Odoma: Turning historical archives into searchable information system. Historical archives are dormant, fragile physical systems. But they are also full of promises: A dense network of people and places, dates and objects, a rich source of untold stories and heritage knowledge. Using the right mix of technology and expertise, Odoma’s goal is to help organizations transform their past into a customized, searchable information system.

Wicard: A free app that allows smartphone users to share their playlists of businesses with their friends. What about sharing mood instead of ratings? Wicard is a free app that allows smartphone users to share their playlists of businesses with their friends. They can memorize in one touch their entire favorite places, add personal notes and pictures.

reseaTECH: Micro dosing unit for bioreactors. This project is an innovative droplet dispenser which helps to make biotech experiments smaller and simpler to control, thus saving time, waste, material and money.
