·       CiRCLR - helps businesses reduce waste going to landfills by connecting them with businesses that could use their waste as a resource. 

·       Gentian - a technology which combines ecology surveying knowledge, satellite data and machine learning to identify plant communities and biodiversity opportunities in urban environments using remote sensing and hyperspectral imaging. 

·       Informed Solutions - combines advanced AI-based search technology with sophisticated data integration techniques to transform how planning authorities work with landowners, estate managers, and property owners/developers. 

·       Klimate - build a robust and scalable analysis framework to identify future-proof carbon removal projects and only work with high-quality projects to avoid greenwashing.

·       Local Ocean - Developing a unique shrimp farming solution, merging and adapting low-cost shrimp production methods from outdoor pond farming and indoor RAS (Recirculating Aquaculture System) fish aquaculture technology best practices, to create a fully sustainable, low-cost, high-yield shrimp production solution on a small footprint. 

·       Project Green - Eden4 is a holistic Green Asset Management Platform that seeks to give the environment a voice and to enable informed decision-making by enabling people to interact with the environment through nature education, with a vision to use technology as a weapon to fight climate change. 

·       Tupinambá Energia - Recharge infrastructure for electric vehicles. An App to locate and initiate a car charge. A customer-facing platform to manage charge stations and clean energy credits.

·       Viezo -  an autonomous IoT solution for monitoring railway wagons. The core knowledge of Viezo is a patent-pending vibration energy harvesting technology, which converts vibrations into electricity to power sensors and is embedded in the hardware of Powerail.  

Green Public Procurement 

·       Blockchain Triangle - aggregates and reports Big Data (outputs from smart meters and IoT sensors) to baseline and benchmark economic output and climate compliance, and delivers this information to key stakeholders (governments, credit rating agencies, banks, insurance and asset managers). 

·       LEMOBS - The Smart School Food solution that supports the management of meals in Brazilian public schools. The technology helps nutritional enrichment, reduces food waste, and valorizes food from traditional communities such as family farmers, in compliance with the Brazilian National School Feeding Program (PNAE). 

·       ReFlow - ReFlow Platform incorporates advanced life cycle assessment (LCA) modelling with product or system-specific impact assessments, quantifying all direct and indirect carbon emissions in different life cycle perspectives. 

·       ValAi -  an automated sustainability rating tool and customer platform that provides personalized home insights for a sustainable net zero future.

·       WeDRT - a customisable procurement platform for transport services (first focused on public DRT) connecting buyers (predominantly local authorities ‘LAs’) with a broad supplier marketplace. 

·       Xpand Access - SAAS platform used for the end-to-end design, delivery and evaluation of public sector-backed programmes and projects linked to green aims.
