\n Industrial Engineering<\/span>\n <\/div>\n FORMIC Transportsysteme GmbH<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

The problem of moving heavy and bulky loads, such as machines and equipment, today requires a lot of time and effort. The significant manual labor, high demands on the ground conditions, and limited space are just some of the typical challenges faced in practice. FORMIC’s solution consists of a flexible number of vehicles that can be arranged around the load as needed. The vehicles lift the load together and in sync, then move it in formation \u2013 operated by a single person.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n \n

\n
\n Industrial Engineering<\/span>\n <\/div>\n nanoshape GmbH<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Nanoshape stands for innovative surface technology for medical implants. Our goal is to protect everyone who relies on an implant, whether young or old, whether it’s a dental implant or a hip replacement, from infections that can occur with such implants. Our larger vision is to make this technology the new standard in the manufacturing of implants.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n \n

\n
\n
\n Engineering Services<\/span>\n <\/div>\n IONYS AG<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

IONYS is involved in a wide range of topics across the entire value chain of construction, from traditional materials testing to materials technology consulting, concept development, formulation of recommendations, and product development. The primary goal is to extend the service life of structures without the need for repairs, thereby significantly reducing life cycle costs.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n \n

\n
\n
\n Chemistry<\/span>\n <\/div>\n INERATEC GmbH<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

The company INERATEC provides modular chemical plants for Power-to-X and Gas-to-Liquid processes, as well as sustainable fuels and chemical products. Using hydrogen from renewable electricity and greenhouse gases such as CO2, they synthetically produce climate-neutral gasoline, clean diesel, sustainable e-kerosene, and basic chemicals like wax. The particularly compact plant design enables their innovative reactors.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n \n

\n
\n
\n Materials Engineering<\/span>\n <\/div>\n Phytonics GmbH<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Making a significant contribution to the energy transition is the declared goal of Phytonics, a spin-off from KIT. Founded in 2021 from the Light Technology Institute (LTI), the startup develops an anti-reflective film for solar modules that increases energy yield while preventing glare. The film is inspired by plant surfaces and aims to improve the yield of solar modules by up to ten percent.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n \n

\n
\n
\n Chemistry<\/span>\n <\/div>\n Turn2X – Turn Energy GmbH<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Production, acquisition, and distribution of synthetically produced energy carriers, such as, but not limited to, green hydrogen or synthetically produced methane.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n \n

\n
\n
\n Software<\/span>\n <\/div>\n MARA Solutions GmbH<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

The tool enables hotels and restaurants to respond to every guest review using AI. It has been specifically developed to triple the response time on platforms such as Google, Booking, or Tripadvisor. Users can effortlessly manage their online reputation and receive a personalized, simple solution for copying and pasting through AI. The free registration provides access to an AI assistant that takes over the time-consuming work.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n \n

\n
\n
\n Mechanical Engineering<\/span>\n <\/div>\n Simutence GmbH<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

In the context of electromobility and the reduction of CO2 emissions, lightweight construction is becoming increasingly important. Composite materials, often referred to as “carbon,” have enormous potential for lightweight design. However, to fully harness this potential, suitable simulation and optimization methods are necessary. The KIT spin-off helps companies in the use of fiber-reinforced plastics. Their approach is a virtual process chain that enables holistic and efficient product development with composite materials.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n \n

\n
\n
\n Medical Technology<\/span>\n <\/div>\n Noxon GmbH<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

KIT spin-off and investment NOXON manufactures bionic clothing that can analyze and support human movements, allowing the body to move with more freedom and control than with crutches, walking aids, or wheelchairs. NOXON combines nanobased materials with mass pressure processes to create flexible, stretchable, washable, and cost-effective sensors that can be applied to various materials. These sensors measure muscle activity and leverage the therapeutic possibilities of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n \n

\n Software<\/span>\n AI<\/span>\n <\/div>\n VALIDAITOR<\/span>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Validaitor bietet eine einzigartige Plattform, die L\u00f6sungen f\u00fcr KI-Governance, Risikomanagement und automatisiertes Testen umfasst. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Anbietern verbindet das Angebot von Validaitor dabei das Testen mit Werkzeugen zur Umsetzung und vereinfacht so einen regelkonformen Betrieb f\u00fcr Organisationen, die sich mit komplexen rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen wie dem EU-KI-Gesetz oder EU-Normen auseinandersetzen m\u00fcssen. Validaitor verifiziert die Umsetzung dieser Anforderungen und erleichtert die strategische Kontrolle \u00fcber den Einsatz von KI. Dazu geh\u00f6ren die Durchsetzung ethischer Standards und Transparenz sowie Risikomanagement bei KI-Anwendungen. Auch das so genannte Red-Teaming ist Teil des Angebots. Dabei werden \u2013 \u00e4hnlich wie bei Penetrationstests im Sicherheitsbereich \u2013 Angriffe simuliert, um Systemschwachstellen zu identifizieren. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n
