Connected operations management for agile manufacturing operations
The problem
We’re are on the long road to enable distributed manufacturing so that industrial facilities around the world can do keep on going efficiently and protect jobs, planes have the right parts they need when they need them, and we can get critical products to the people that need them as soon as they do.
The solution
Through our connected operations management software, we enable efficient and agile production facilities. In doing so we create the most detailed view of each part available. We use this contextual data not only toturbocharge local operations but also to determine its place within the value chain: spare capacity, part production status and more. Ultimately, the data generated will be sufficient to identify whether the part was produced correctly.

Circularise brings transparency to global supply chains and enables businesses to become circular.
The problem
In 2015 the annual production of plastics has reached 381 million tonnes, with most of it becoming waste. It’s clear now that there is an urgent need for an economy that is circular. Such a circular economy can only be achieved through cooperation between companies, governments, NGOs and the consumers themselves. Nowadays, however, achieving the necessary level of cooperation is practically impossible. It requires an unprecedented level of trust and transparency among all players, which cannot be achieved without addressing privacy/confidentiality at a fundamental level. To address this problem, Circularise is developing a way for all the parties in the value chain to become transparent while never exposing sensitive information. We believe that digitising assets such as raw materials, waste and recycled materials has the potential to boost recycling, improve resource use, open new markets for secondary raw materials, and advance the transition to a circular economy. In addition, our solution enables companies to put a premium on their sustainable product offerings, giving them a financial incentive to get involved in sustainability and circular economy.
The solution
Circularise helps OEMs and Manufacturers to trace raw materials from source, into parts and ultimately to end products. By digitising materials on blockchain Circularise is able to create a digital thread through the whole supply chain. It’s innovative technology enables companies to show “good-stewardship” practices towards customers and regulators on a public blockchain system, at the same time maintaining control over information that gives them a competitive advantage. We have a proven track record of working with companies such as BASF, Covestro, Domo Chemicals, Stanley Black & Decker, Arcelik, Porsche and a number of their Tier 1-2 suppliers in a paid pilot setting. As a supply chain transparency provider, in the most recent project with Porsche we enabled the traceability of plastics on blockchain to ensure the use of sustainable materials in Porsche cars. By digitizing materials Circularise was able to create a digital thread through the whole supply chain, enabling material traceability, tracking the CO2 footprint and other sustainability metrics like water savings. Recently partnered with the EU-level trade association of European plastics converters (EuPC) to use Circularise as the digital platform to monitor the rate of the plastics recycling activities in Europe. Moreover, we have partnered with the Alliance to End Plastic Waste to tackle the plastic waste problem through digital innovation.

Brazil
Everlog is a Brazilian startup accelerated by Plug and Play and one of the 100 most innovative startups in Latin America, according to the Innovation Latam Awards 2019. We are the 1st TMS in the SaaS model in Brazil and our main competitive advantage is to solve transportation problems without the hassle of implementing a common TMS, connecting shippers and logistics providers with technology and efficiency, delivering faster results, greater customer satisfaction and more affordable costs.
The problem
We solved the inefficiency of shippers in transport management. Logistics expending can consume about 12% of a company’s net revenue, with 95% of all freight contracts are made manually, the lack of visibility of deliveries generates extra costs, delays and angry customers. In addition, 7% of the freight charged is incorrect and 22% of the documents have some kind of divergence. There are many logistics provider, complex rates and many integrations. The shipper loses money, and for us, the customer, we have a more expensive product because this inefficiency.
The solution
We have a powerful and scalable transportation management software solution, covering the entire transportation process, such as a Freight Sourcing that connects carriers to the best logistics providers and that is designed to deliver the best rate. A delivery management platform that allows carriers, shippers and end customers to track and monitor their deliveries in real time. And a Freight Audit Recovery solution, automatically reviewing each type of shipment for accurate billing.

We add value to concrete. We make concrete more sustainable and durable by making it self healing .
The problem
Concrete is the most used building material in the world (7.4 Billion m3 each year( but concrete is also responsible for 8 % of the CO2 footprint yearly. We make self-healing concrete that needs less maintenance, has a longer lifespan, and is easier to apply.
The solution
Self-Healing concrete is being made by adding Basilisk Healing Agent into the concrete. Healing Agent containing (harmless) bacteria spores, nutrients, and special activators and has no influence on the properties of the concrete. But when a cack occurs (and it WILL) and moisture will enter the crack, the spores will be activated. The bacteria produce limestone that heals the crack. After healing the bacteria will stay dormant (as a spore). When anew crack occurs the whole rocs start over again. This is autogenous self-healing for concrete. Invented by the University of Technology in the Netherlands. Patented all over the world.

India
Sagar Defence Engineering is based out of Mumbai. SDE is the first ever company in the country to indigenously develop high speed long range unmanned marine surface vehicle for the Indian Armed Forces. Our areas of expertise include Unmanned Marine Surface Vehicles (UMSV), Unmanned Aerial vehicles (UAV), Autopilot technology, Navigational instruments and telemetry systems which will revolutionize the future at your fingertips. These vehicles help save lives at sea along with providing actionable insights to make informed decisions in mission-critical scenarios
The problem
The chief problem Sagar Defence Engineering(SDE) solves, is providing an efficient autonomous system solution for the collection of maritime & oceanic data in real-time. The solution puts no human life at risk & reduces OPEX (operation expenditure) by more than 60% & CAPEX (capital expenditure) by 45%. Even the simplest problem in a marine environment becomes complex & hazardous to solve. Typically, the solutions to these problems come at a high cost; they cannot provide real-time data, risk human life & the weather conditions restrict the collection of data. The degree, to which the SDE technology solves the problems, is by providing a marine unmanned vehicle system for the collection of maritime and oceanic data in real-time. This solution saves time, money & opens the doors to new research and areas to explore.
The solution
Sagar Defence Engineering(SDE) autonomous systems work closely with a human operator, by utilizing levels of “managed autonomy”. This allows the operator to focus on the work at hand rather than directly navigating the unmanned vessel. The technological advantage, is the hybrid technology with smart software algorithm engines/ hardware for both manned and unmanned operations can be configured to suit the particular vehicle and is not restricted to vehicle type. The technology is equally suited to controlling a torpedo shaped body and a high speed boat. It uses self- tuning artificial intelligence algorithms, which it learns from the vehicle responses and adapts itself to it. It can be used as a simple autopilot to a high-end standalone unmanned system. The technology is being used in survey, security and military applications.
