At Emmi AI, we believe that the next frontier of industrial engineering lies at the intersection of artificial intelligence and physics. The world of large-scale engineering and manufacturing is ripe for transformation, yet todays innovation processes are hindered by slow, costly simulations and prohibitive computational requirements. Emmi AI is here to change that.

Machen Sie Energie zum wirtschaftlichen Erfolgsfaktor. trawa ermöglicht mittelständischen Unternehmen, Grünstrom professionell einzukaufen und intelligent zu nutzen – wie es bisher nur Großkonzerne konnten. Mit unserer KI-gestützten Technologie senken Unternehmen Energiekosten um bis zu 30% und erreichen gleichzeitig ihre Klimaziele. Wir lösen das Energie-Dilemma des Mittelstands: Der Mittelstand zahlt aktuell zu viel für Energie in Deutschland, was die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit gefährdet. Komplexe Energiemärkte, starre Standardtarife und fehlende Expertise erschweren den Umstieg auf nachhaltige, kostengünstige Energielösungen. Unsere ganzheitliche Lösung: – 100% zertifizierter Grünstrom direkt aus Wind- und Solarparks – Teildynamische Tarife für maximale Kosteneffizienz – Smarte Energiemanagement-Software für volle Transparenz und Kontrolle – Intelligente Steuerung für Verbrauchsoptimierung bei erneuerbaren Energien Unser Team: Gegründet von ehemaligen Unternehmensberatern, Mathematikern und Data Scientists, die Konzern-Know-how für den Mittelstand zugänglich machen. Wir bieten echte Expertise statt Buzzwords und pragmatische Lösungen statt Komplexität. Kontaktieren Sie uns für ein individuelles Angebot: www.trawa.de

Were building the digital infrastructure layer for Europes €1.8 trillion construction industry - starting with making tendering 10x faster. Construction drives 13% of global GDP with $130B+ TAM, yet operates with last centurys tools. At Scalera, were changing that. Backed by Speedinvest and Firstminute Capital ($1.5B+ AUM), and 150+ Unicorn Founders, our AI platform connects contractors and suppliers in seconds, not hours, creating a seamless flow from tender to offer to build. Every construction project starts with tendering - a manual, error-prone process that wastes countless hours. Suppliers struggle with complex tenders. Contractors juggle endless RFQs. Knowledge walks out the door when experts retire. Scalera automates the entire workflow. Upload a tender, extract materials instantly, match products automatically, generate offers in seconds. What used to take days now takes minutes. Proven Results: - Processing €4B+ in tender volume - Serving 110+ forward-thinking companies - Dominating 65% of the Swiss market - Saving 80%+ of processing time Every building in Zurich could have materials that flowed through Scalera. Thats our vision – not just software, but the foundation for how Europe builds. Join us in building Europes future → scalera.ai
