Holloid

Food Tech Congress is right around the corner, and I'm excited to be pitching there! Save the date for May 28-29, 2024 and meet me in Warsaw, Poland! #FTC2024 https://lnkd.in/dp8kx6WS

Holloid is Austria's young #hightech company of the year 2024! Thank you GEWINN Wirtschaftsmagazin and all the jury members including Austrian ministers Leonore Gewessler, Martin Kocher, and VERBUND CEO Michael Strugl for this recognition of our efforts. We continue to work hard to establish Holloid as the global technology leader in automated high throughput microscopy and bioprocess monitoring. Why? Because we help to keep people healthy by detecting pathogens. Because we enable pharma companies to provide ever better medicine. Because we accelerate the transition to a more circular economy. ... and for many many more reasons

We’re honored to be featured among microscopy leaders like Bruker, Olympus, and Carl Zeiss in a recently published market study highlighting companies pushing the boundaries of #LifeScience #Microscopy. Our technology is helping to advance the study of living organisms, tissues, cells, and other biological samples. The report emphasizes that “Technological innovations such as high-resolution imaging, multimodal imaging, digital imaging options, and automated imaging systems are driving the demand for advanced Life Science Microscopes.” This is contributing to a robust 7.6% market growth, with some sub-categories expanding even faster. However, there’s one point worth noting: The study mentions that “Researchers and scientists are seeking microscopes [...]” But it’s not just them. 😉

Recent events in Klagenfurt remind us why continuous innovation in water quality monitoring is crucial. At Holloid, we are committed to ensuring safe, reliable water for everyone.   Austria is one of the richest countries in the world. As Austrians and expats in Austria one thing that we like a lot about living here is the awesome water quality - in tap water, and even in lakes and rivers. We have so much pure and healthy water that we can fill whole swimming pools with water that elsewhere you's pay 2€ per bottle for.   At Holloid, we want to keep it that way, and help other countries delivering the best water possible to their citizens.   Here are some learning from a recent incident that kept 100,000 people having to resort to bottled water or boiling water before consumption:   📆 It took several days to go back to normal 🤯 because there could be hundreds of potential causes   ⌛ According to Stadtwerke Klagenfurt AG "The drinking water is sampled regularly, and water is taken from each of the 20 measuring points every three weeks." 🧫 microbiological plating adds another 2-4 days before anyone really knows what the problem really is. 🦯 between those points in time (3.5 weeks), little is known about potential pathogens in the water   💸 no numbers were published yet, but the economic damage of this one incident alone could be in the millions     👩🔬 At Holloid, we provide advanced solutions that ensure quicker and more accurate water quality monitoring 🚰 😌 creating peace of mind     https://lnkd.in/daw-k3py

Die Presse, one of Austria's leading newspapers, covers Holloid in an article today. It's titled "Leuchtender Fingerprint für Laborfleisch und Co." which means "Luminous fingerprint for lab meat etc" https://lnkd.in/dHC6T5gu What's so unique about Holloid's technology? Let's look at the heading. Luminous ... Holloid uses the light microscopy. We use light to see and count what is there: everything on the micro scale from tiny bacterium to clusters of micro algae or mammalian cells. ... fingerprint ... Based on this optical information, we identify each and every single cell at least as good as a well-trained microbiologist could do it. But, using machine learning, we do so on-line, 24/7 with a throughput thousands of times larger than any microscopist could do it ... for lab meat ... We help some of the world's most advanced products in alternative proteins achieving market readiness, commercial viability, technical scalability and product safety. ... etc We can serve broad range of use cases beyond fermenters and hygiene applications in the food industry: pharmaceutical and chemical industries, even environmental monitoring agencies gain valuable insights at a degree of automation and frequency that could not be achieved with any other technology. Enjoy the read!

Thank you Austria Wirtschaftsservice for the ongoing support to secure and protect our valuable breakthrough inventions for #bioprocess monitoring globally, with #patents, #tradesecrets and a portfolio of other measures!

Thank you for the coverage and the award, Austrian Standards! Yes, Holloid is on track to set new standards in #hygiene and #bioprocess control.

BASF just built a massive fermentation site. Key take-away: #Fermentation is easier than #steamcracking a) less complex b) less harmful compounds c) lower temperatures --> less energy input required #bioprocesses are the future - of pharma, food and chemistry. Holloid enables bio process monitoring at scale. --> #greentransition Congrats Katja Scharpwinkel, Richard Hegner!

The Vienna Chamber of Commerce and Industry awarded Holloid with the Mercur award for #Digitalization. Why digitalization and not #Biotech, #AI, #Sustainability and #Impact? We'd fit any of these. Much of microscopic and microbial analysis is far from reaping the full benefits of fully integrated analytics. With Holloid's internet of microscopes, bioprocess managers in #pharma, #food, #environmentalmonitoring and beyond can use automated 3D microscopy, extracting big data to let AI do the analytical heavy lifting - all continuously in real-time. This paves the way for more sustainable production methods, superior products in an intact environment. Thanks for the award and the pleasant morning event 🔬🍾 🏆 💰 Regina Plas Alexander Biach Sophia Lang (c) pictures: Barbara Lachner https://lnkd.in/dR9KjjTS

Blumenwiese statt Regierungskrise 🌼 🌺 🌷 --> EU-Renaturierungsgesetz Holloid unterstützt die Dringlichkeitserklärung österreichischer Unternehmen an die neun österreichischen Landeshauptleute, die Umsetzung des EU-Renaturierungsgesetzes zu ermöglichen. "Das Weltwirtschaftsforum verweist im Global Risk Report darauf, dass in den nächsten zehn Jahren der Verlust an Biodiversität zu den größten globalen Risiken und Herausforderungen zählen wird. Nach Angaben des Weltwirtschaftsforums hängt mehr als die Hälfte des globalen Bruttoinlandsprodukts von natürlichen Ressourcen und Ökosystemleistungen ab." "Dem Gesetzgeber und der öffentlichen Verwaltung kommt in dieser Transformation eine Führungsrolle in der strategischen Planung und Bereitstellung eines entsprechenden regulativen Rahmens zu"
