Our CEO Verena Kuen (née Jaschke) is currently participating in the European Forum Alpbach, a yearly symposium where Science, Economy and Politics get together to discuss the most pressing issues.🤩
The conference theme this year is ‘the new Europe’ and we are drawing a lot of very valuable insights from the discussions with other participants. 🇪🇺
The very strong presence of female networks this year has been instigated by our business partners Birgit Kraft-Kinz and Barbara Gruszkiewicz powered by the female network GRANAT and BearingPoint.
The conference started this week with a big ladies night with outstanding attendance restricted to women only and a variety of smaller side events such as female networking breakfasts and cocktails. Besides a really compelling conference program in really creative formats, such as cross-generational discussions on a gondola as well as discussion hikes, the networking aspect is a big asset of Alpbach, this year with a strong female touch.

High five! We definitely want to see more of that.✋🏻

The Hamburg-based opinion-polling company Appinio has announced that it will be offering its employees an “Unlimited Vacation Policy”. This will allow its employees to take holidays whenever they want beyond the 20 days of holidays they are legally allowed each year.

According to Appinio founder Jonathan Kurfess, this step is in response to findings that suggest that commitment and responsibility have led staff to significantly contribute to the success of the start-up. Their working hours will now become even more flexible and the company hopes this will also increase its attractiveness as an employer.

Facebook has introduced “Passthrough API Experimental”, a developer interface on which the Oculus headset can be used to seamlessly mix virtual with reality and enables modification. The result is a mixed reality in which, for example, the user’s real-world haptic displays and keyboards are visible with a digital image in the background.

Alternatively, productivity tools can be customized. For example, participants on a video call can sit together at a virtual table and see their devices at the same time. Contrasts and transitions can be adjusted using sliders.

The Mannheim-based start-up vibrosonic has developed an innovative hearing device whose amplifier sits directly on the eardrum, similarly to a contact lens. In natural hearing, sound hits the eardrum at the end of the ear canal and causes it to vibrate. The new hearing contact lens works on the same principle.

Instead of loudspeakers in the ear amplifying the sound, as is the case with conventional hearing aids, the sound is transmitted by direct mechanical stimulation of the eardrum. This way, the natural hearing process is imitated.

👓 The Israeli start-up Deep Optics has developed lens technology that can switch between far and near vision by reorienting the pixels in the glass. Specifically, the glasses feature liquid crystal layers that are split into tiny pixels, capable of rotation at every point of the pixel.

😎 When the wearer swipes the side of the frame, a tiny processor embedded in the temple calculates the user’s personal prescription and commands millions of tiny pixels inside the lens to change their electrical state to bring close objects into focus.

The French start-up Midnight Trains plans to offer night trains designed like boutique hotels from Paris to other European cities as of 2024. The stylishly fitted trains feature cabins for various group sizes, so that friends, families and couples can travel in comfort.

The cabins contain bedding sets, a bathroom with shower, as well as an on-demand entertainment program. The glamorous dining car serves seasonal food and cocktails. Unlike the expensive Orient Express, the Midnight Trains will provide an affordable and sustainable alternative to flying.

🎓 A team of researchers from the University of Leicester and the University of Birmingham have developed a new technique for improving the recycling process for electric vehicle batteries. Specifically, the team devised a novel ultrasonic delamination technique that blasts the active materials from the electrodes, leaving behind virgin aluminium or copper.

🚀 The new method is 100 times quicker, greener and leads to a higher purity of recovered materials relative to current separation methods.

The US company Carbon Robotic has developed an autonomous robot that frees farmland of weeds. The “Autonomous Weeder” is fitted with sensors and cameras so that it can detect any obstacles in the field. Beneath the robot are eight CO2 lasers, which are also connected to cameras and sensors.

The recorded images are analysed using AI and the CO2 laser eradicates weeds in seconds. With the gas laser, electricity is conducted through a gas-filled pipe, which generates light. This method is far more efficient than manual weeding and is also sustainable as no chemicals are used.

As part of the “BioActiveMaterials” project, researchers from Germany's Fraunhofer group are developing a recyclable, bioactive paper bag for food packaging. The bag is intended to be an alternative to plastic food wrap. The bag keeps the product inside from drying out, plus it kills the bacteria that cause foods to spoil.

It also has a resealable zip-lock top, so it can be reused multiple times. While the bag's main body is made of fully recyclable paper, its inside surface is coated with a blend of natural waxes and proteins. The coating does not impede paper recycling.

Scientists at the Universität Bielefeld have developed thermoelectric generators that convert heat loss into electricity without the need for using rare elements. The manufacture of thermoelectric generators currently requires the rare earth tellurium, which negatively impacts on the sustainability and efficiency of power production.

The researchers used magnesium- and antimony-based chemical compounds. These were ground into a powder and condensed. The result of the synthesizing allowed them to manufacture thermoelectric components that can efficiently generate electrical energy.

🌎 The digital metaverse Decentraland now allows users in the USA to order pizza for home delivery. This service is initially restricted to the USA. A kind of pizza kiosk has been set up by a group of players in the digital world. It is connected to the pizza delivery service Domino's Pizza.

🍕 Hungry players can choose their pizza and pay with the cryptocurrencies Ether or Mana, which is Decentraland's official currency. The pizza delivery service is an excellent example of the nearly limitless possibilities open to companies for using metaverses as points of sale for the analog world.
