We are a VC-backed spin-out of the University of Oxford reinventing the way fluorochemicals are produced. Fluorochemicals are fundamental to our daily lives (Li-ion batteries, agrochemicals, marketed drugs, materials) and we are developing disruptive fluorinating technologies that are safe, efficient and sustainable for a cleaner planet and a brighter future. Co-founded by Prof. V Gouverneur and Dr G. Pupo, Fluorok’s mission is to find new solutions to drive the energy transition, improve people’s health and food availability while reducing our impact on the planet.

The energy industry is broken: oligopolistic in nature, high and unpredictable prices, highly pollutant and mostly non-digital results in it being the worst rated industry in Europe by consumers. New clean technologies open the door to a brighter future, in which homeowners can become active participants of the energy ecosystem accessing greener and cheaper energy. At Samara, we are building that future: a new decentralised consumer energy company that will change the €2-trillion European energy industry forever. Sounds interesting? We are always hiring highly passionate and driven individuals to join our mission-driven team, ping us!

Jua is a frontier AI lab building a foundation model for reality. We started with the atmosphere and set the global benchmark for weather and energy prediction, outperforming every incumbent including the institution that defined the field for forty years. Today, our agent Athena drives decisions on energy trading desks worldwide. Language models learned the digital world from text. The physical world is larger, older, and governed by different laws. It needs a different model. The last three years transformed everything we do on a screen. But the physical world is where most of our economy actually lives. It is where our energy comes from, where our families live, where the decisions that shape real life are made. AI has barely touched it. Our foundation model learns the dynamics that govern the physical world directly from data, and because physics is shared across domains, that understanding transfers: from the atmosphere to fluid dynamics to any system governed by the same fundamental laws. The last three years changed everything we do on a screen. The next three years will change everything else.

www.greenlyte.tech GCT operates a low energy DAC approach to capture CO2 while generating hydrogen as a byproduct. The process consists of 3 main process steps. Absorption in a liquid, precipitation and desorption through alkaline electrolysis. The technology is based on 15 years of research with relevant patent applications filed and working prototypes. The company was founded as a university spin-out by 2 serial entrepreneurs and an experienced DAC researcher. Join us: https://greenlyte-carbon-technologies-gmbh.jobs.personio.de/

As spin-off from the TU Munich, were a highly tech-driven climate startup paving the way to 100% renewable, decarbonized future by making the most of biogas. Our all-in-one solution comes as a containerized standard unit: ready for mass manufacturing and plug&play installation, offers revolutionary electrical efficiencies of 80% for both power generation and energy storage, and actively reduces GHG emissions with a negative CO2 balance. With this unique combination of USPs, we disrupt the entire energy sector! Reverions mission is to replace 19th century combustion engine technology still used today for biogas utilization with our patented high temperature fuel cell systems. Thereby, we would be able to double the available power output throughout Europe with the same amount of biogas and to: • cut 10% of total CO2 emissions (-260 Mt/yr), tackling global warming and achieve the 1.5° mitigation targets • generate >400 TWh of renewable gases (green H2/CH4), bridging week-long periods without sun or wind using surplus energy and biogenic CO2 • power more than 65M households, assuring supply security with weather-independent, reliable and 24/7 available bioenergy
