1. The pitch Luminik is building an AI co-pilot for event marketers to help B2B marketing teams turn expensive conferences into predictable pipeline - by fixing targeting, meetings, and follow-up with one revenue-first system. 2. The what B2B companies spend 20–30% of their marketing budget on events - but most can’t prove the ROI. Attendee lists come in late. Sales teams scramble to book meetings. Post-event follow-up is messy and untracked. As a result, 40–70% of event-generated leads disappear. This affects CMOs, event marketers, and sales teams who are under pressure to justify spend and show pipeline impact. The pain is felt across industries, and the budgets at stake are massive. 3. The how Luminik is an AI-powered event marketing co-pilot. It identifies ICP accounts and decision-makers weeks in advance, helps lock meetings before the event, alerts sales when high-value prospects show up at the booth, and auto-syncs all activity back to the CRM. No more manual scraping, badge scans, or spreadsheet reporting. We turn events into a pipeline channel your CFO will actually trust - with math, not guesswork. 4. The why We saw the same pattern over and over while working with fast-growing SaaS teams: events were expensive, chaotic, and disconnected from revenue. I have helped teams wrangle messy data for years - and realized we could bring clarity, structure, and impact to one of the most broken (yet high-stakes) parts of B2B marketing. We’re here to fix event marketing with a revenue-first lens - because if you can’t tie events to pipeline, your budget is always at risk.

ABchar is developing a new type of pyrolysis reactor, affordable heating and the possibility of small-scale biochar production, adapted to agriculture.. This will help achieve the goal of a 40% reduction in emissions from the agricultural sector. What is pyrolysis? Simply put, this is the heating of an organic material without access to oxygen. This leads to a series of reactions that ultimately result in 3 main products; biochar, oil and gas. We want to utilize the biochar in this process. The oil and gas will be burned and the heat from this will be used to dry grain, heat barns, greenhouses, residential buildings and other things that need heat on a farm. Why pyrolysis and biochar? Plants absorb CO2 from the air around us through photosynthesis. They are actually extremely good at this too. The residual product is mainly oxygen and the plant material. The great thing about pyrolysis is that we are able to separate water, oxygen and hydrogen from the plant material and we are left with more or less pure carbon 80% +. This is carbon from the air! If we take this coal and spread it on our agricultural land, it will be stored there for up to 1000 years and perhaps longer. In some cases, the soil will become more fertile and less vulnerable to periods of too much or too little water.
