Aquaculture is the target market for products and services.
Beelife is developing an isolated, autonomous and connected beehive capable of treating Varroa (destructive parasite) with a purely biological weapon: heat (patent pending). CoCoon helps bees live longer in good health and beekeepers harvest more honey.
EasyGaN (Valbonne) for the most innovative product or service in the field of Microelectronics (prize awarded by STMicroelectronics & Aix-Marseille University). The company offers templates, or substrates allowing easy access to the industry Gallium Nitride on Silicon (GaN on Si). Its solution allows new entrants to bypass the technological barriers inherent to the growth of GaN on Si. This generic technology makes it possible to address various electronic and optoelectronic markets and applications.
I-MC (Marseille) for the most innovative product or service in the field of Industry of the Future (prize awarded by HPE & Eurecom). I-MC develops a robotic control solution to control and correct the in-situ fabrication of a part quickly and accurately.
