Every week our team does an internal huddle where we share the most disruptive and interesting startups and emerging technologies from around the world. The only rule, is that they can’t directly solve a current client challenge. This way we retain our super-power of spotting creative adjacencies and disruptive outer-horizon solutions. Below we share a selection of those startups and technologies with you.
- Flair Impact - a people 👭 analytics tool 🔨 that helps businesses 💼 and schools 🏫 measure and build anti-racist cultures.
- Hydro Wind Energy - their mission is to protect the natural 🌱 environment by developing breakthrough technologies 📱 like QuenchSea: the world's 🌏 only low cost 💰, portable 🎒 seawater 🌊 desalination device.
- OCCULAND - a platform that brings landowners 🏝️, tenants, and content creators 🎨 together to manage, develop 🏗️, and monetize 💵 the Metaverse.
- Pass It Down- a digital 💻 storytelling 📖 platform recently launched ICONIC Moments, the first NFT marketplace 🏬 for the 450,000 museums 🏛️ and cultural institutions around the world.
- Colorifix - is learning from nature 🌸. They are the first company using a biological process to produce, deposit and fix pigments 🌈 onto textiles 👗 in a way that lessens the environmental 🏞️ cost of producing 100 billion articles of clothing each year.
- LibertyX - America's 🗽 first and largest U.S. network 🌐 of bitcoin ATMs 🏧, cashiers and kiosks with thousands of locations across 44 states nationwide. Recently acquired by NCR.
