In collaboration with Avnet Silica and Renesas, we were looking for start-ups and young innovative companies with hardware-based product ideas. By taking part, start-ups can quickly develop a professionally built and marketable solution.
The winners have now been announced: Congratulations to GasVisor! They impressed the jury with their solution for automating the filling level measurement and ordering process for CO2 gas cylinders. The system enables customers to use resources more efficiently and significantly reduce their carbon footprint.
Second and third place went to HOREICH and MoxyByte.
