qWave is a Stavanger based R&D company with a vision to develop a stress testing tool to enable operators to safely maximize carbon storage of CCS projects and to develop and service a range of downhole tools for improved testing, stimulation, perforation and cleaning of wells in the CCS and oil & gas industry. A prototype of our first formation stress testing tool is currently being developed and tested as part of a joint interest industry project supported by several operating companies. This tool will be applicable to ensure maximised and safe carbon (CO2) storage and will therefore contribute to the energy transition and reduced carbon emissions. The range of tools and services to be developed are based on a new technology invented by qWave.

SmartCrowding is a Norwegian company, founded in 2014 to tackle a very real problem in the global healthcare system. This issue is (over)crowding in hospitals & healthcare centres, which in turn leads to poor & stressful experiences, a delay in treatment, inefficient resource utilisation, unnecessary costs and, amongst other things and in the worst cases, the loss of lives. The issue of overcrowding in the healthcare system isnt a local one; its absolutely global. From Norway to the USA, the UK to India, lives are being lost unnecessarily due to many factors that are avoidable, or at the very least improvable, with the help of our technology. With our cloud-based solution, designed from the ground up in hospitals, we have already halved A&E/ ER waiting times in Scandinavia and reduced corridor patient numbers to zero. We will shortly be adding predictive capabilities too, allowing healthcare trusts to prepare for what would have previously been the unexpected! Please get in touch today to see if we can help you increase your operational efficiency and ultimately, save lives.

Ecofiber Recycling AS was founded in 2015. The company is an approved recycling facility for fiberglass and composites from leisure boats, construction, offshore, aquaculture, agriculture and wind turbines blades. The disposal of fiberglass and composite is something we want to challenge. These materials from various decommissioned products are delivered to our facility as waste being processed into an end material, that can be utilized as input factor in various new circular products. Our team is strongly committed to contribute towards the new circular economy. Ecofiber Recycling AS is proud to have contributed to the introduction of a government supported refund scheme for leisure boats, implemented in October 2017. In Norway alone, there are about 1 million leisure boats and at least 20% of these are ready to be decommissioned and recycled. Recycling of these leisure boats represents a far better environmental value proposition than this waste being left on land, sunk in the ocean, burned or delivered to landfill.
