Six finalists will compete for the top spot in the Startup competition at Teknologia 23

Six finalists have been shortlisted for the competition that showcases new and groundbreaking solutions in the field of technology. The competition will culminate in a pitching final taking place at the Teknologia 23 event on Wednesday 8 November. The winner will be awarded EUR 10,000 funded by the Finnish Fair Foundation.

The aim of the competition, which is organised for the third time, is to highlight the importance of technology when it comes to solving future challenges. The award is granted for outstanding solutions, such as new commercial products, methods, or applications. Teknologia 23 will be held on 7–9 November 2023 at Messukeskus.

Finalists of the Teknologia 23 Startup competition:

Coldins has developed a unique and patented insulation solution that can reduce the consumption of electricity used for cooling by up to 10–25%. Globally, the use of electrical HVAC systems accounts for 10–20% of all electricity used in buildings. Every 10% saved is the equivalent to 5 times the production capacity of a country like Finland. Among other benefits, the solution makes it possible to construct better buildings, produce less CO2 emissions and use less power and materials.

Combining data, AI and ESG, Datafarm has its sight set on going global and growing significantly in the next few years. The company provides analytics services and data consultation, focusing mainly on its Data Farm eRating service and developing it further. Data Farm eRating is an automated reporting solution that produces a monthly overview of the carbon footprint of a company or community. The goal of Datafarm’s product development team is to create an ESG reporting platform that is as fully automated as possible.

The goal of Finnadvance is to revolutionise drug development. The company's patented platform is being developed to accurately predict human outcomes, reducing costs and development time. The company’s ethical, efficient, and cost-effective technology will reduce the consumption of plastic supplies and biological materials in diagnostics and pave the way for personalised medicine, safer medicines, and a sustainable future in the pharmaceutical industry.

Nelinor has developed the world's first smart home battery system. The company’s Grid Battery makes it possible for the users to optimise their energy consumption for greener energy. The system monitors spot prices and adapts to the user's consumption patterns, helping to save energy and money while promoting a more environmentally friendly lifestyle.

Onit Sport has developed the innovative SKILLS mobile application to support the mental coaching of children and adolescents. The application provides tools that help children and adolescents strengthen their mental skills. The well-being and versatile mental skills of children and adolescents are the cornerstones of a sustainable future. The application helps its users deal with wins and losses both on and off the pitch, while the accumulated data on well-being is used to promote a culture that focuses on strengthening skills.

The goal of VitalSigns is to streamline physical examinations and improve diagnostic accuracy. The next-generation medical device developed by VitalSigns can simultaneously detect and analyse multiple biosignals while automatically documenting the results and suggesting potential diagnoses to healthcare professionals. Moreover, the device, its application and the AI-based analyses can be used by a wide range of users, including consumers at home, telemedicine platform operators and veterinarians.

The pitching final will be held on Wednesday 8 November at 14:30–15:30 on the MXSystem stage, and the prize will be awarded the same evening at the Teknologia Party at approximately 19:15.
