Hvordan AI revolusjonerer fremtidens teknologiinvesteringer? Vi står ved en skjæringspunkt der kunstig intelligens begynner å forme tidligfase investeringer. Med bare 15% av investorene som bruker AI aktivt, er det mye som står på spill. Hvordan vil økt datatilgang og avanserte AI-modeller påvirke investeringsprosessene? Kan algoritmer erstatte investeringsteam, og hvordan endres relasjonsdrevet investering?

Bli med ombord på MS Søgne under Arendalsuka, og ta del i en innsiktsfull diskusjon om hvordan #AI kan omdefinere #venturekapital og #teknologiinvesteringer.

Tid: 12. august, 13:00-14:30  
Sted: MS Søgne, Arendalsbadet

Moderator: Fredrik Winther, CSO, Katapult / Working Chair, NorthStar Impact Analytics
Panel: Siri M. Kalvig, CEO, Nysnø Climate Investments; Trond Riiber Knudsen, TRK Group AS; Torkel Engeness, Venturist, Sandwater

Next week, we're hosting a series of events aboard MS Søgne by Arendalsbadet during Arendalsuka ⛴️ We'll dive into topics such as impact investing, tech innovation, sustainable growth, and how we can facilitate for more startups and scaleups to thrive.

Wow... 🤯 AI-powered materials discovery portfolio company Materials Nexus has just created a novel permanent magnet 'MagNex'.

Magnets are vital to green technology across the globe (EVs, wind turbines & much more) but MagNex is uniquely:-
🌿 rare-earth free
🏭 70% lower CO2 emissions
💰 20% lower cost
🚀 designed & created in 3 months (vs 50 years)!!

And the best part? Magnets are just the beginning... 🔎 🌍 

Congratulations to Jonathan Bean and the entire Materials Nexus team and here's to a net-zero materials future (in months, not years)!

❄ Snow measurement has traditionally required Winter fieldwork. It's dangerous and expensive, and there is a better way. 

🚁 With Wegaw, Metro Vancouver has eliminated the need to fly helicopters to undertake snow surveys.  

📉 They've reduced costs, their carbon footprint, and, most importantly, the risk to personnel. 

You can read more about it in the article by our CTO Thomas J. and get in touch with us to know more!

Katapult couldn't be more excited to be part of the journey with portfolio company Sparxell 🌈 and congratulate the team on closing the >$3mn seed round!

Colour #pigments (#glitter) is used across global fashion, cosmetics, paint & packaging and it can be visually captivating, but it is also a global impact disaster...
📛 microplastic pollution
📛 land depletion
📛 energy intensive supply chains
📛 indirectly contributes to child labour (from mica mining)

Sparxell's solution goes back to nature with the world’s first 100% natural, high-performance biodegradable colour platform made with plant-based cellulose.

To quote the (fantastic) team:-
🌈 Next stop: Series A.
🌈 Final destination: a bright and colourful world that doesn't harm the earth.
