A budgeting tool for people with autism
People living with Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) such as autism have trouble understanding numbers and abstract concepts such as value. As a result, they have been left without any financial products they can understand hence can't aim to become independent. Olive allows for this by enabling carers to place rules ( limits, permissions) over certain categories of money (groceries, rent, etc). In this way, Olive can adapt to the decision making abilities of the user. Olive has been working with some major banks who are interested in transforming their products, and soon, she?ll be releasing a toolkit to help support banks in this process. http://awards.ixda.org/entry/2019/olive-finance-made-accessible/

Paying or entering an office with your hand
More than 4000 Swedes have implanted microchips in their hands, which allows them to pay for transport and food, or enter keyless offices, with a wave. Restaurants, buses, trains, parking lots and even pay toilets can be paid with clicks rather than cash. https://www.npr.org/2018/10/22/658808705/thousands-of-swedes-are-inserting-microchips-under-their-skin
