Biological solution for increasing efficiency and productivity of mineral fertilizers (Biomineral fertilizers – BMF)

The world is facing decreasing efficiency of mineral fertilizers due to numerous reasons including soil degradation, low mineral assimilation rate and insufficient use of mineral fertilizers. Our solution is to significantly increase the efficiency of mineral fertilizers by coating granules with specific bacteria using our patented technology. This increases the efficiency of mineral fertilizers by 25-50% or more, depending on the type of mineral fertilizer and the type of crop. Mineral fertilizer manufacturers can use both the liquid and the powder solution of our technology to produce biomineral fertilizers (BMF). The powder technology requires the manufacturer to have a mixing facility which are often used for adding anti-caking agent. If the liquid technology is used, the manufacturers can install a sprinkler above the transportation line which will sprinkle the bacteria directly onto the granules of the mineral fertilizers. This way the cost of implementation is minimal. Additionally, our technology provides ecological benefits due to better absorption of mineral nutrition from granules by plants, as well as increased biological activity of soil enriched with agronomically useful microorganisms.

Mental health disorders, particularly depression and dementia, significantly challenge healthcare systems worldwide. The World Health Organization reports that 3.8% of the global population suffers from depression, and over 55 million people live with dementia, with nearly 10 million new cases each year. Despite the high prevalence, effective treatment options are limited, and many patients are hesitant to use antidepressants due to potential side effects and lack of long-term benefits. Additionally, the adoption of new neuroscience-based treatments in clinical settings faces challenges such as gaps in collaboration between neuroscientists and clinicians, high research costs, and complex integration into clinical practices. To address these challenges, our project advances transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) as a non-invasive treatment for neurological and mental health disorders. Our solution includes: Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Bringing together neuroscientists, medical experts, and healthcare leaders to close the gap between research and clinical practice, accelerating the implementation of tDCS innovations.

The Fashion Program acceleration program

Women in the MENA region face significant challenges in entering and thriving within the fashion industry due to limited access to education, resources, and business networks. These barriers are exacerbated by traditional societal norms that often discourage women from pursuing entrepreneurial ventures. Furthermore, the rapid digital transformation in the fashion industry has created a gap where many aspiring women entrepreneurs lack the digital skills and tools necessary to compete in a modern marketplace. This gap not only limits their economic potential but also hampers the growth of a vibrant and inclusive fashion ecosystem in the region. To address these challenges, Entreprenelle launched the Fashion Empowerment Initiative, a comprehensive program designed to empower women through education, mentorship, and resource accessibility. The initiative integrates digital solutions into the fashion industry by offering specialized workshops on digital fashion tools, e-commerce platforms, and online marketing strategies. Participants are equipped with the necessary skills to design, market, and sell their fashion products using digital platforms, thus bridging the digital divide and enabling them to compete on a global scale. The program also provides access to a network of industry experts, mentors, and potential investors, fostering a supportive community that encourages collaboration and innovation. By combining traditional fashion expertise with cutting-edge digital tools, Entreprenelle has successfully created a sustainable model that empowers women to not only enter the fashion industry but also thrive and expand their businesses, contributing to economic development and gender equality in the region.

BRICS countries face a challenge of technological and intellectual leadership in continuously complicated political and business environment. New sanctions introduced every day, problems with international settlements and logistics, attempts to limit access to advanced technologies create barriers for economic and technological growth and increase business costs. It is crucially important for BRICS business entities to cooperate with each other, cut costs, quickly find new reliable partners in joint projects and empower each other in their effort to innovate and grow. Also, it’s important that such cooperation is not slowed down and limited by bulky hierarchical management structures, which are especially slow and inefficient in multicultural, multi-time zone and truly global environment. These challenges are successfully solved when businesses find partners, register deals and settle arguments in a nature-like decentralized environment managed by protocols. Reliability of a business partner is 100% transparent and visible in blockchain record of his deals. Any dispute is solved in 72 hours inside the system, no legal expenses involved. Fraudulent participants are blocked at once. These are the major features of the B4B marketplace “Made in BRICS” based on social solidarity blockchain SolidWord. In our marketplace one can choose a business partner using reliability score which is calculated as percentage of deals closed without claims in total amount of deals registered by this person on “Made in BRICS”. The numbers are stored on a blockchain and can not be anyhow modified, no matter how much funds a business is eager to spend on marketing and ratings improvement. Search by type of technological processes is also available, which is especially important for innovative products, when one is creating a new thing and can rather find a subcontractor who performes a specific process (i.e., electroplating, extrusion molding, etc.) than a unit name, as such unit has never been produced before. If an argument between a deal parties happens, they can settle it in 72 hours with their peacemakers – respected business partners of both parties, who agree to work out acceptable solution with each other. This process does not require any extra legal costs or spending months in courts, while its efficiency has been proved historically in two independent periods and locations. A web-based interface of “Made in BRICS” is accessible to any person who registers in system by putting in his e-mail address and phone number. After confirming two peacemakers in the SolidWord system, one can start registering his deals and finding subcontractors, and the results of deals, confirmed by both parties, become a basis of reliability calculation for each deal party. Historically, the peacemaking algorithm has been successfully used in Kazakhstan in late 80s, and currently it is applied by project participants in their business and social projects.
