Podbike has developed a fully enclosed and street-worthy e-bike, that gives you the freedom to ride comfortably 365 days a year. // The problem // Today half of all car journeys are shorter than 5 km and can easily be replaced by cycling. Using a two-ton car, even if electric, is inefficient for short distances. It is resource intensive, pollutes, creates congestions and you do not get any exercise. European Green Deal states that a 90% reduction in transport emissions is needed by 2050 to be climate neutral – calling for green mobility solutions, especially in and close to cities. // Our solution // Podbike has created a practical, safe and sustainable 4-wheeled e-bike with room for cargo or your child. An e-bike that offers freedom and comfort in any weather. No license necessary and you can use the bike lanes. It is small, easy to charge and park. You avoid stressful traffic jams and get light exercise while minimizing your environmental footprint. It makes your daily commute a joy. Compared to a car it has a fraction of the environmental footprint both during production and in use.

The Missing Maps project maps the most vulnerable places in the developing world.  Building on the excellent work done by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and others in mapping as emergency response, the Missing Maps Project aims to map the places in the world where the most vulnerable people live in a proactive way. Instead of responding to a natural disaster, conflict or epidemic, regions vulnerable to crises are identified and mapped in anticipation of crises, meaning that when one occurs, local people, NGOs and other responders can start using the maps and the data from the word go, saving valuable time, and potentially, lives.The Missing Maps Project is an open collaboration founded by the American Red Cross, the British Red Cross, Humanitarian OSM Team (HOT) and Medecins Sans Frontieres/Doctors Without Borders (MSF).

In 1994, two programmers started working on a web browser. The idea was to make a really fast browser, capable of running on limited hardware, keeping in mind that users are individuals with their own requirements and wishes. Opera was born. Our little piece of software gained traction, our group grew, and we formed a community. We stayed close to our users and our roots. We kept improving our software based on our user feedback, as well as our own ideas on how to make a great browser. We innovated and strove for excellence. Fast forward to 2015. The browser we once loved has changed its direction. Sadly, it is no longer serving its community of users and contributors — who helped build the browser in the first place. So we came to a natural conclusion: we must make a new browser. A browser for ourselves and for our friends. A browser that is fast, but also a browser that is rich in functionality, highly flexible and puts the user first. A browser that is made for you. And so, Vivaldi is born.

And when done correctly, visuals or mentions of brand names within a TV show or movie can improve -- or at least, not ruin -- the viewer's experience. Showtag has developed a new way to enhance the product placement with Showtag Enabled. Showtag Enabled is a non-intrusive way for product placement that gives the control to the viewer. By utilizing the power of the pause button! And we are even able to multiply the numerous (missed) opportunities for product placement.
