The recent development highlights from the yearly LOPEC conference continue to show the potential and maturation of organic and printed electronics.

We are proud to be part of the prestigious Scale-Up Vaud 2024 label, a testament to our relentless dedication, robust growth, and the innovative strides we've made in the healthtech sector. This recognition by Innovaud shines a spotlight on organizations that have demonstrated extraordinary annual growth of at least 20% over three consecutive years, underscoring not only our past accomplishments but also our ambitious trajectory forward.   Our journey to this significant milestone has been driven by a spirit of continuous innovation, particularly highlighted by the recent launch of our state-of-the-art digital health platform. This platform is more than just a product; it's a symbol of our commitment to redefining the boundaries of technology and health, embodying our vision for a future where digital solutions lead to healthier, more connected lives.   We extend our congratulations to our fellow awardees, especially the newcomers who have all achieved remarkable milestones: AELER Technologies SA, EH GROUP, Flybotix, Neural Concept, RigiTech, Tayo Software, tipee, Wiz-Team. Together, we're not just growing; we're reimagining the possibilities of technology and its impact on the world.   #domohealth #DigitalHealth #VDTech #SwissTech #Innovation #HealthValley #ScaleUp #VDTech École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne, HEIG-VD, HES-SO Haute école spécialisée de Suisse occidentale

Recently, our current project Nanoflex (aka Nanoflex Robotics ) was listed by WIRED as one of Zurich's hottest startups in 2024🔥 The technology, a soft robotic system with customized catheters for mechanical interventional stroke treatment, can simplify and shorten procedure times and reduce the risks related to accessing the brain, thereby improving patient access, treatment and care. It is also possible for the physician controlling the robotic system to treat patients remotely. How mind-blowing is that🤯 Read the full article 👇 #medtechstartup #medtechrevolution #medtechinnovation #swissstartups

🚀 MICDEV Startup News! 🚀 For the past three years, I've been passionately working on a startup project that began when I started my journey at EPFL in Switzerland. Balancing my classes and this ambitious project has been a challenging yet incredibly rewarding experience, even leading to a few sleepless nights and a drop in my grades😬. Introducing our innovative metrology system! Designed with modularity in mind, it allows users to choose how and when to measure real-time sensor data. Equipped with a suite of sensors that can simultaneously measure temperature, pressure, and altitude, our system features an on-board computer to display and record all measured data so that it can be analysed offline later. This is especially useful for those building their own airplanes or vehicles, providing valuable insights into the aerodynamics and efficiency of their creations. I'm thrilled to announce that sales will soon be available on our startup's website: https://mic-dev.ch/ Feel free to reach out if you’d like more information or have any questions, I’m always excited to discuss and share more about this journey! #Innovation #Metrology #EPFL #Aviation #Aerodynamics

Exciting news! The fourth theme explored at FLL will be "Automated, Integrated & Interoperable Discovery" 🔬 Laboratory automation is the integration of technologies and robotic systems into the laboratory to perform repetitive tasks and enable new and improved processes. Automation can enhance efficiency, accuracy, and throughput in laboratories, allowing scientists to focus on more complex aspects of their work. We have come a long way in the field of automation but many questions still remain unanswered. At Future Labs Life, we plan on exploring these and their solutions! We will discuss topics including: 🔬Miniaturization of automation 🦾Cobots, mobile robots & soft robotics 🔃Enhancing compatibility and streamlining implementation 💶Low-cost automation 🥼Outlining the research roadmap for the laboratory community Register now for FREE to be part of the most important conversations happening in the field of labs! 👉 https://buff.ly/3vIu388 We are proud to share some of the speakers taking part in this track: Pascal Miéville, EPFL (École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne) Radhika Gudipati Patrick Courtney, SiLA Consortium Reinhard Lafrenz, euRobotics aisbl Kerstin Thurow, Universität Rostock Alexander Dömling, Palacký University Olomouc Alain FARINE & Julien FIZET, JAG Jakob AG Josie Hughes, EPFL (École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne) mark doerr, Universität Greifswald Stefan Born, Technische Universität Berlin Thomas Frech, HighRes Biosolutions Tim Meyer, The University of Göttingen Ádám Wolf, Óbuda University David Wolton, Numeriq Jane Shmushkis & Utku Ergün, Mosa Meat Thole Züchner, Albstadt-Sigmaringen University Jamin Bouras, BioLAGO e.V. – the health network #FLABS #FutureLabsLive #FutureofLabs #LabAutomation #LabDiscovery #LabIntegration

Fantastic event (and ecosystem) that Patrick Meier, PhD and his team at the Climate Robotics Network are creating. Highly recommend you check out the Climate Robotics Summit, done in partnership with EPFL, SOSV, Cybernetix Ventures, ETH Zürich, and Worcester Polytechnic Institute. I just had the pleasure of moderating a panel just now on investing in climate robotics, alongside Urvi Nagrani, Malini Samtani, Sashi Jayatileke and Fady Saad. Here are some of the key insights: 1) Applications for robotics to climate challenges (adaptation AND mitigation) are enormous: support to farmers as conditions for humans become too hot to farm for long hours, drones that help capture data on forests and wildlife, supporting with installation of maintenance in large solar fields, wind turbines, circular economy applications - e.g. de-manufacturing - to just name a few. 2) Investing in robotics is simply different - it doesn't fit the standard SAAS VC strategies, often having a lot of engineering input and require non-dilutive funding upfront - e.g. similar barriers to investing in hardware writ large. Thus, it sits in a bit of its own asset class, so investors and entrepreneurs alike need to understand how these solutions behave, esp. in the early-stages of building/testing. That said, there is a growing pool of funds that have been specializing in this area. 3) So how do we move robotics solutions up the TRL ladder faster? It can take a LONG time for any robotics solution to be truly market ready. Even when there is theoretical product-market fit doesn't mean that it's ready in investors' eyes. Lots of testing as well as setting proper expectations with customers is critical, and part of this long process. Non-dilutive funding is rare to find in most countries, but in the US in particular there is a growing pool of grant funding that can help. 4) Development finance institutions and donors have a critical role here, especially in vulnerable countries/communities: Robotics could have bit impact in supporting climate solutions in vulnerable communities, but we need to ensure that there is an enabling environment for these solutions, which means that the policy, academic, and traditional finance space (e.g. local commercial banks)

Great to share the development finance perspective on climate innovation today and even better to learn so much how robotics can play a role in climate change adaptation and resource efficiency solutions.
