Solar Foods is leading a ground-breaking HYDROCOW consortium project to develop a novel biotechnology platform introducing new ways to produce sustainable food, materials, medicine and chemicals. Spinverse funding experts worked with the project consortium for their successful project proposal, which was selected for funding by the European Innovation Council (EIC) from more than 400 contesting teams.   

Building a consortium with over forty partners across the EU is complex, especially when you are combining the distributed R&D&I capabilities from corporates, SMEs, universities, RTOs and start-ups from 20+ countries. Patrick Halford, our VP, Digital Industries, discusses this challenge and our take on how to approach it.

A new automated solution that brings safety to the patient’s everyday life and streamlines the work of healthcare professionals has been developed in the CleverHealth Network co-ordinated by HUS. The new remote care model enables savings of up to tens of thousands of euros per patient. The first service solution created as a result of the partnership cooperation will now be commercialized in cooperation with Fujitsu. Spinverse has played an important role in building and facilitating the CleverHealth Network ecosystem and we are delighted to see the outcomes of the relentless work between partners. 

Aalto Alumni Weekend, the biggest alumni event of the year, welcomed all Aalto University alumni on the Otaniemi campus at the end of October 2023. Spinverse experts were active participants both as organisers and as speakers.

In November 2023, the Innovation Fund is set to inaugurate a green hydrogen pilot auction, known as the 'Hydrogen Bank.' We at Spinverse have been closely monitoring the development of this initiative, with the goal of providing comprehensive support to our clients, as we have consistently done in previous Innovation Fund calls. 

Several European programmes are implementing EU’s political priorities in the health area.

The PHEMS project consortium led by Helsinki University Hospital (HUS) will advance data-driven research and innovation activities in pediatrics and the use of privacy-preserving datasets in Europe. The project’s aim is to overcome important barriers that currently hinder cross-border collaboration on health data by developing and validating a decentralized federated health data ecosystem. This will enable an ecosystem without central data repositories or release of sensitive personal health data from hospitals. The proposal preparation was supported by Spinverse. 

Spinverse works intensively to support its Swedish customers in applying for funding from the Swedish Energy Agency's Industriklivet, a national financing programme launched by the Swedish government. The support is based on 20 years of experience in proposal work and includes an experience-based, efficient and well-structured process covering all relevant aspects of the proposal scope. Spinverse experts offer the Industriklivet proposal support as a separate assignment or a step in the execution of a grant funding roadmap covering national as well as international (EU) grant funding opportunities. 

Ponsse, a leading manufacturer of forest machinery, and its technology company Epec, have together launched the FORWARD´27 project which aims to significantly reduce the emissions and environmental impact of mobile work machinery used in forestry and other heavy industries. The 10M€ funding granted by Business Finland challenge for leading companies will help the FORWARD’27 ecosystem develop solutions for intelligent, zero-emission vehicles for off-road and commercial use. Spinverse supported Ponsse and Epec in the project preparation phase and is now contributing to the management and coordination of the FORWARD’27 project, which had its launch event in September 2023.
