ChromaWay

Our story ChromaWay is a blockchain technology company. Since 2014, we have been developing and refining industry-defining blockchain technology platforms. Blockchain pioneers We created the first protocol for issuing tokens on the Bitcoin network. We used it to issue fiat currency together with LHV bank in 2014, and then to crowdfund startups on the Funderbeam platform. We designed a blockchain agnostic client-side validated smart contracting platform that put privacy first before privacy became a hot topic in blockchain. We have used it to support internal leasing in large organisations, issue financial instruments, and to allow government agencies to issue licenses digitally. In 2018 we used it to demo a live property sale together with the Swedish Land Registry. Technology by us We are the creators of relational blockchain, a new blockchain architecture which combines the power and flexibility of a relational database and the fault tolerant decentralised security of a blockchain. We built Postchain, a private blockchain or consortium database using the relational blockchain architecture. Postchain has registered property on three continents, accelerated the growth of green finance, and formed the basis for a proposed national e-currency. Relational blockchain also powers Chromia, our public platform for decentralized applications. Relational blockchain allows Chromia to offer a user and developer experience which no other blockchain platform can match.

Eyecheck System

The Product Eyecheck System is a modular SaaS platform that effectively enables sharing of clinical imaging, referrals, and other clinical correspondence instantly and securely between healthcare professionals, such as optometrists, eye doctors, and hospitals. By digitizing the patient journey we enable quicker treatments and fewer patient queues as we can process more patients with uncomplicated diagnoses more effectively. The Problem The prevalence of the most common retinal diseases, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR), is rising in industrialized countries. In addition to demographic changes, this trend is also partly driven by growing numbers of patients with diabetes. This is increasing the workload in hospital ophthalmic units, and public ophthalmologists leading to waiting times of up to 12 months in Norway. This in turn increases the risk for serious eye damage in the general population at risk. The Solution Eyecheck System is a modular SaaS platform that shares clinical imaging, referrals, and other clinical correspondence securely and instantly between healthcare professionals. This in turn enables decentralized controls and diagnosis of patients even in rural areas with sub-optimal eye specialist coverage. Decentralized controls and screenings are made possible due to the vast amount of geographically spread retina imaging devices in over 600 optometrist locations throughout Norway alone. In addition to that, there is a wide-ranging discrepancy of competence levels across the profession of optometrists, where such a service would benefit both the patients and the optometrists. The reason why We are passionate about Eyecare and want to avoid blindness and other serious eye complications in Europe by digitizing the patient journey and creating a modern, more sustainable way to help patients get better. Our founder is an ophthalmologist (eye doctor) in Akershus and embarked on this journey due to his own experience when meeting patients that waited unnecessarily long on their appointment and ultimately an uncomplicated diagnosis.

Mobile phones today are amongst the first devices children get familiar with and how these devices are being used has caused worries amongst parents. There are many solutions to help parents control and limit childrens use of mobile phones. But what if we could incentivise the "good use" of mobile phone?? A digital wallet to which parents will top up childrens allowence and children will get the money in their digital wallets when they use educational applications in their phones. The parents decide for themselves how much they want to reward the children. Since this is basically a digital wallet, it can be used just like a regular bank account for children as well. The children can get a Visa card to use their money from, they can save, invest, shop, send, donate. The parents can send money to the children in addition to the scheduled amount. The children receive educational videos to learn about the economics and value of long-term savings. The built-in AI observes the children's habits and offers better tools to improve the focus of the children's educational journey. Parents can decide which new apps the kids can download and use to get more money. We have already thought of tens of several tools to strengthen the relationship between young people and parents and we welcome your feedback and new ideas to improve our solution. Parents can separately promote different apps for their children and reward use on their own terms. We have researched the idea of ​​hundreds of parents and all have shown great interest in such a solution.

LYS Technologies - Live Healthier with Light

Hi, we're LYS. We’re not here to build smarter lighting products, but to enable a smarter and healthier living with light. We look beyond the lifespan of a light bulb, the aesthetics of a lamp and the technology of smart lighting systems. Instead, we focus on what should always come first — people and supporting their healthy livelihood. Just as air, food, and water, light is a natural and vital source to health. To most people, the absorption of light is an unconscious choice in life. It’s everywhere, always. But not necessarily in a healthy way. We can choose to eat better, drink less, run more… but what about the things we don’t see, but subconsciously feel? The things that can truly energise our day and make us happier and healthier. We are here to improve people’s health by enabling personal light adjusted to their inner rhythms and daily routines. Light can only be truly healthy, if it’s powered by people and the lives they live every day. So, whenever you are ready to feel the difference, we are here to help you live a healthier life with light.
