Times are changing for the 770 million people living without clean, reliable access to power. We are an Australian technology startup that works with local utilities to transform #offgrid communities into energy abundant #meshgrids. Connecting households together using smart distribution techniques makes energy more reliable and up to 10x cheaper than grid extension or AC micro-grids. Our plug & play #IoT controller, aka. the Okra "Pod"​, uses machine learning and remote monitoring to ensure power is efficiently distributed throughout a network of solar households. Our cloud software provides grid owners with real-time data so they know when and how networks should be scaled. Our mission is to work with investors, regulators, and fellow tech companies to advance rapid #electrification around the world so that everyone has reliable access to productive power by 2025.

ColdHubs Limited is a social enterprise that designs, installs, commissions, and operates 100% solar powered 3 tons, 10 tons and 100 tons walk-in cold rooms in farm clusters, fresh produce aggregation/collection centers and outdoor food markets, for smallholder farmers, retailers and wholesalers to store and preserve fresh fruits, vegetables and other perishable food 24/7 and extend their shelf life from 2 days to 21 days. ColdHubs aims to eliminate the impact of food spoilage facing 470 million smallholder farmers globally, due to lack of reliable and well-situated cold storage at key points, within the food supply chain. Expanding its operations by integrating refrigerated transportation services, an end-to-end cold chain and the production of returnable plastic crates to reduce food spoilage due to lack of efficient cold chain.

Every year, up to 50% of all food produced worldwide goes to waste amounting to over $2.6 Trillion in losses. Our mission is to put an end food waste. Ryp Labs is a USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) and NSF (National Science Foundation) funded crop and food protection company developing and commercializing biomimicry solutions to combat global food waste, sustainably and safely. We are building a business that comprises high-performing, driven individuals with altruistic values who want to change the world. Today, weve developed a natural and safe formulation that can be applied to a variety of surfaces, including stickers, labels, and sheets, to increase the shelf-life of fresh produce. Our food-safe labels (Shelf-Defense), and stickers (StixFresh), have been shown to double the shelf-life of fresh produce, by simply peeling and applying them to loose produce or its packaging. Join us in the fight against food waste, one sticker at a time.

1.2 billion people throughout the world do not have access to electricity. An additional 800 million do not have access to enough reliable electricity to fulfill basic household needs like cooking much less participating in the modern world with computers or being able to build wealth through electricity enabled commercial activity. Energicity develops solar powered minigrids which provide off-grid communities with the energy they need for household needs, entertainment, and community and commercial needs like agricultural processing, and health care. In other words, Energicity provides the energy families and communities need to thrive.

The World Bank is a vital source of financial and technical assistance to developing countries around the world. Our vision is to create a world free of poverty on a livable planet. We are not a bank in the common sense; we are made up of two unique development institutions owned by 189 member countries: the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA). Each institution plays a different but collaborative role in advancing the vision of inclusive and sustainable globalization. The IBRD aims to reduce poverty in middle-income and creditworthy poorer countries, while IDA focuses on the worlds poorest countries. Their work is complemented by that of the International Finance Corporation (IFC), Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) and the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID). Together, we provide low-interest loans, interest-free credits and grants to developing countries for a wide array of purposes that include investments in education, health, public administration, infrastructure, financial and private sector development, agriculture and environmental and natural resource management.
