Melta transforms food waste into high-quality fertilizers through localized microbreweries. Our scalable, circular system helps municipalities and farmers cut emissions, manage waste more efficiently, and restore degraded soils. Food waste generates 8-10% of global greenhouse gas emissions annually, and 40% of agricultural soils are degraded. Centralized waste systems are costly and inefficient, leaving small municipalities and farmers in need of accessible, regenerative solutions. By closing the loop between waste and soil health, Melta creates a system that reduces costs, revitalizes ecosystems, and supports local communities. Founded by a soil scientist and a systems designer, Melta was built to tackle soil degradation and waste inefficiencies, turning food waste into a resource for a regenerative future.

In recent years we have witnessed intense tropical storms, costing thousands of lives, as well as massive destructions. The total estimated cost for damage caused by hurricanes in 2017, is calculated at $250 billion. Also in 2018, we have seen hurricanes causing catastrophic damage and human tragedies. Tropical hurricanes are generated when masses of cold and warm air collide. And the sea surface temperature is above 26.5°C. We are doing research and development to cool the sea surface temperature by exploiting colder water deeper down in the sea. This will help us cope with climate change. The companyOceanTherm AS was founded in 2017 and is engaged in the research and development of methods and technologies preventing tropical storms from becoming devastating. OceanTerm AS also delivers maritime counseling. The challenge Many people have tried to find ways of preventing hurricanes before they make landfall, resulting in the loss of human lives. In recent years we have witnessed intense tropical storms, costing thousands of lives, as well as massive destructions. For example: in 2005, hurricane Katrina killed more than 1,800 people and caused damage of $ 90 billion. In 2016, hurricane Matthew swept across Haiti, taking 852 lives and destroying many towns on the island. The total estimated cost for damage caused by hurricanes in 2017, is calculated at $250 billion. Tropical hurricanes are generated when masses of cold and warm air collide. Another essential factor is that the sea surface temperature is above 26.5°C. Climate change is causing sea surface temperatures to increase. In the case of hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria that occurred between August and September 2017, sea surface temperatures were measured as high as 32°C. The big questionIs it possible to cool the sea surface to below 26.5°C by exploiting colder water from deeper in the water column? The answer is yes, we have the methods and the technology.CooperationOceanTherm AS is located in Horten (Norway) and collaborates with SINTEF Ocean AS in Trondheim and SILICIA in Horten.FundingInnovation Norway and the Research Council of Norway are supporting the research program.

Emission Twin helps companies achieve their climate goals—not just report on them. Our cutting-edge software centralizes climate data, turning insights into action and making sustainability a growth driver rather than a compliance chore.

Too many businesses get stuck in reporting loops instead of making real impact. We bridge that gap with a smart, user-friendly platform that analyzes, strategizes, and automates climate efforts, helping decision-makers move from obligation to opportunity. We built Emission Twin because we saw a world where sustainability could be effortless, impactful, and valuable. The climate crisis won’t wait, and neither should action. With the right tools, businesses can lead the way and we’re here to make sure they do.

We are building a personalized learning platform in programming based on AI and stories for high schools and vocational education to assist teachers. The problems in this area are many for both teachers and students: 1. There is no quick customer support for teachers using digital tools today. 2. High admin time and cost for teachers. 3. Lack of teachers in schools with relevant programming experience. Today Maths teachers teach programming. 5. It is time-consuming for teachers to prepare and check programming assignments for students. 6. It is becoming difficult to stay up to date with the new changing tech era and the job market. 7. The course for learners or students is boring, theoretical and standardized. 8. We all as humans are different but we study the same standardized way. Therefore, no personalization for programming is available today.
