Time to vote for THE BEST INNOVATION presented of the DIH² factor This challenge provided a unique opportunity to dive into the manufacturing sector, exploring areas such as vision automation, circularity, sustainability, 3D vision strategies, and data management. The target of the DIH² factor, was to navigate through the complexity of the sector while aligning with investors’ expectations. Reducing the climate impact remains a critical challenge in this sector: proximity, reshoring, and transitioning from cloud to edge technologies emerge as potential solutions to address this challenge effectively. Among the top 5 startups, we had Bot-Hive, LightCode Photonics, Youtiligent , Staex, and Circular IQ, coming from Estonia, Germany, Israel, The Netherlands, and the UK. Those innovative companies showcase the diversity and global reach of groundbreaking ideas in the manufacturing sector. DIH² factor has spotlighted cutting-edge innovations in the manufacturing sector, underscoring the need for sustainable solutions, as well as support from all stakeholders, such as European Commission, DIH entities, investors, corporates, and of course talented entrepreneurs! #cuttingedgeinnovation #Manufacturing #VentureCapital #INVESTINTECH #robotics #investors #vc
Over the past three weeks, we've seen 5 amazing #startups make their pitches to the DIH² Factor jury. We saw and heard testimony from Andrei Martîniuc on how the DIH² Network helped Transilvania IT Cluster increase its visibility in its target market, and from Tamás Szepessy on how our #Horizon2020 funding made an impact at MEDICOR Elektronika Zrt. We also heard from Cecile Huet and Malgorzata Nikowska at the European Commission on the vital role organisations such as DIH² Network play in the European #manufacturing ecosystem, and from Ali Muhammad on how we plan to keep advancing our cause to advance factories through #robotics. Thanks to Géraldine Andrieux Gustin, Regis Hamelin, Alice Perez Morillas and the entire team at BLUMORPHO for making the first edition of the DIH² Factor a success. And of course our fantastic jury of Nicolas Leterrier, Aurore Lanchart, Nicolas Topuz, and Hind Beaujon for their insights and wisdom. Bot-Hive, Circular IQ, LightCode Photonics, Staex and Youtiligent were all worthy finalists, but of course there can be only one winner, so watch the video to find which #startup was selected by the Jury as the first winner of the DIH² Factor.

What is the Wi-Fi Sensing Program really like? Don't take our word for it... Let's look at it through the prism of a startup! Meet Tiami Networks, a startup developing AI-powered hardware that extracts radar sensing information from ambient 5G and Wi-Fi signals. Their vision is simple yet very exciting: creating digital twins for cities with real-time information on pedestrians, traffic, and building occupancy - minus the cameras and new infrastructure deployment. Following the Wi-Fi Sensing Program's big launch in Berlin, the hands-on work and active co-innovation are now in full swing! 💡 Here's what Tiami's team shared about their program experience so far: "Whether it’s access to cutting-edge equipment for prototyping or assistance with regulatory compliance, we have found the support we need to stay ahead of the curve at hubraum." Tiami also highlighted the exciting opportunity to conduct pilots and validation tests with Deutsche Telekom: "These real-world deployments will provide invaluable feedback and validation, helping us fine-tune our solutions and demonstrate our value proposition to potential customers and investors." Mentored by Oliver Naumann, Tiami Networks is off to a great start! We're looking forward to the innovations we will build together throughout the course of our program. 🚀 Read their full testimonial here: https://bit.ly/3XfgiZY #WiFiSensing #MagentaZuhause #Startups

🌟 Last year, two groundbreaking companies took home the top prizes in the hardware segment of the pitching competition, and they’ve made incredible strides since: 🌊 Sealution - Connectivity Below Deck: Since winning, Sealution - Connectivity Below Deck has achieved a major milestone by securing their Type approval from Lloyd's Register, allowing them to transition from research & development to full-scale implementation and sales. They are now set to deploy their cutting-edge maritime communication technology on their first vessels, making waves in the industry with their groundbreaking solutions. Sebastian Hamers ❤️ ❤️ STUDIO TWINS PARIS: Specializing in health tech, STUDIO TWINS PARIS has confirmed strong interest from the Belgian market for their innovative solution—a sensory blanket designed to calm and soothe patients. Over the last year, they have pursued seed fundraising in partnership with LeanSquare, a firm specialized in Life Sciences, who is leading the round. Currently in the closing phase, this funding will allow them to proceed with Medical Device certification in 2025! Nancy Boehm Lou-Anne Boehm A special thank you to Voxdale | design-driven engineering for co-organizing last year’s hardware pitching competition and playing a crucial role in shaping the event’s success. For this year’s hardware segment, we are proud to partner with imec.istart and imec.xpand, who will be joining us to foster the next wave of hardware innovation. We’re excited to see what this year’s competitors will bring to the table! #GhentSlushD #PitchCompetition #Hardware #Innovation #StartupEcosystem #startup #founders

Very different takes on the same issue. The interesting part is that both non-institutionals (Beekee and Kiwix) had a client-centric, content- and results-first approach (and grow from there), whereas Giga is entirely top-down, working with governments to map schools everywhere before trying to get them all connected to the broader internet.
Thank you to the Foreign Press Association in Switzerland and Liechtenstein (APES) for featuring the work of Giga at the “Swiss Tech Meets the Press” event, alongside the University of Geneva Innovation, FacLab, International Geneva - a “kitchen” where crucial work gets done - as well as Beekee and Kiwix offline, two startups in the #edtech field, whose innovative solutions to connectivity-related challenges are a great synergy with Giga’s work to connect every school by 2030!

❓ Where can I find an investor for my hardware startup? This is one of the most common questions we hear from founders. Starting a hardware company isn’t the easiest path in life. It's for the brave ones. It comes with unique challenges: from scaling production and maintaining a laser focus on (only) core features, to having the courage to break things and learn. But one of the toughest hurdles remains — finding the right hardware-savvy investors. And it’s not just founders facing this issue. Hardware investors themselves often struggle to find co-investors who understand and are not afraid of the intricacies of scaling physical products. That’s why last year, we teamed up with Ghent Slush'D to shine a spotlight on hardware and make a difference. We aimed to push founders to elevate their pitches, refine their narratives, and set bolder ambitions. Today, we’re happy to see the impact: 🚀 STUDIO TWINS PARIS found their lead investor LeanSquare through our hardware-focused initiative. 🤝 imec.istart and imec.xpand are taking the baton, showcasing their commitment to hardware innovation. A shoutout to other hardware champions out there, to mention a few: LeanSquare, Leuven MindGate, La Grand Poste, Start it Accelerate | @KBC, Birdhouse, Techstars Berlin and many others who keep pushing the envelope for hardware startups! #hardwarestartups #investors #innovation #startups
