Helping people live more with less - The sharing economy
ReShare aims to reduce waste and promote sustainability by encouraging the community to share resources and reduce mass consumption. It is a safe, easy-to-use online platform for individuals and businesses to share items with others in their local community and promote connections and trust. People can lend or borrow items such as tools, sporting equipment, musical instruments, and anything you can think of. By facilitating sharing and collaboration, we want to reduce the number of new items that need to be produced and consumed, hence reducing waste and conserving resources, leading to a more sustainable future for all. https://www.reshare.com.au

A noise-cancelling game changer
The toroidal propeller's unique, closed-form design makes it a significantly quieter alternative to common multirotor propellers on commercial uncrewed aerial vehicles. Turning a ring wing into a propeller reduces noise in the 1-5 kHz range and creates a much less intrusive sound reminiscent of a breeze rather than a high pitch drone propeller. At the same time, propulsion stays at the known levels. https://www.ll.mit.edu/sites/default/files/other/doc/2022-09/TVO_Technology_Highlight_41_Toroidal_Propeller.pdf

Creating value from recovering unused food and agricultural surplus.
Extracta has developed innovative technology and processes that harness the goodness from fresh crop waste, transforming it into high-quality natural ingredients suitable for a range of uses – from nutraceuticals and cosmetics to food products. These innovations not only help to minimise crop waste for Australian agriculture businesses but also introduce exciting new ‘value-add’ natural ingredients for manufacturers to meet increasing consumer demand for natural products and ingredients. All of that by keeping the logistical footprint to a minimum by relocating the processing plant to where the masses of processable materials are located. https://extracta.com.au/
