Philippe Dourassov and Manaf Mhamdi Alaoui, co-founders of Haicker, an automated penetration tester that uses AI agents to identify security vulnerabilities on web application code and test them to eliminate false alarms. Cheaper, faster, and more efficient than traditional pentesters, Haicker catches bugs before attackers do!
Claire Bourmaud and Manon Rolland have developed the first lignin-based coating for thermal paper applications – an organic, safer, and more affordable solution that’s easier to recycle and offers a sustainable alternative to hidden chemicals and toxins.
Vicente Carbon and Hung-Chi Han, co-founders of Rhonexum, are accelerating the development of cryogenic electronics that advance quantum computing, high-performance computing, and specialized sensor technologies. Their cutting-edge low-temperature testing and modeling solutions for electronic components enable semiconductor circuit designers to rapidly and efficiently simulate and validate IC performance in cryogenic environments before committing to long and costly manufacturing.
Nathan Decurnex and Amin Debabeche have built Focus Technology, a startup dedicated to transforming precision optics by enhancing efficiency, comfort, and safety across various fields. Their first two models are the “Multi-Micros”, a multi-magnification loupe designed for all precision workers, and “MedOptix”, surgical loupes specifically tailored for surgeons and dentists.
Created Jean Rauber, Camille Lannoye, Cristian Fortuna and Marius Fortuna, the mission at Carebotics is to elevate elderly care for all of us. They are building an AI autoscheduler that frees up caregivers’ time so they can spend more of it with the people who matter. With a single click, Carebotics’ system matches the right staff to the right shift.
Alessandro Ferrante has launched H-Robotics, An advanced, tailored robotics service designed to revolutionize the hospitality sector—leveraging process automation, lowering operational costs, and enabling human resources to focus on higher-value tasks and customer experience, all while maintaining high-quality service at all times.
