We are thrilled to let you know that last week we took home FIRST prize at the ‘Disruptive Start-up’ competition at Arch Summit in Luxembourg, winning €150,000!!
The summit was organised by Tomorrow Street which is an Innovation Centre operating as a joint venture between Vodafone and Technoport, and focusing on scouting the world’s markets for strategic innovations and scaling them to global capacity.
It’s safe to say competition was fierce, with us pitching against 100+ other innovative start-ups across industries such as Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, Cybersecurity, Robotics & Drones, VR/AR and more to win. A big shout out to our Head of Investment Alexander Nicholson for taking it home and bringing our trading platform and VLUX token to life during the pitch!
The panel of expert judges were particularly impressed with our vision to bring free, green energy to all by using disruptive technology like blockchain and AI to challenge the status quo. They highlighted our IoT home energy hub and how its advanced machine learning technology, combined with trading capabilities and our VLUX token, really sets us apart and sets us up to completely disrupt the energy industry. The competition was also witnessed by the Prime Minister of Luxembourg which was a real privilege!
