Problem: The world’s dependence on fossil fuels is driving climate change and depleting natural resources, while current green hydrogen generation methods are costly and inefficient. Solution: Parshwa Power developed a cost-effective, portable method to generate 100% pure green hydrogen for under $1 per unit using a unique, recyclable formulation that works anywhere without external energy. This innovation addresses hydrogen production, storage, and transport challenges.
Problem: Traditional machine engineering faces issues of inefficiency, downtime, and costly maintenance, leading to reduced productivity and higher operational costs. Solution: Implementing Digital Twins in machine engineering allows for real-time monitoring, virtual simulation of equipment behavior, predictive maintenance, and optimization of machine performance, reducing downtime and operational costs.
Hundreds of thousands or even millions of old panel houses look unsightly and are being destroyed due to lack of money to renovate the facade. A combination of a fabric facade and gabions in the lower part can solve this problem.

Problems were: 1. Time costs for data collection and processing from multiple data sources (Rosstat, EMISS, The Central Bank of Russian Federation, etc.) 2. Outdated information due to insufficiently prompt updating of certain data sources (e.g. data on EMISS are not always up-to-date). 3. Inability to obtain statistical information from certain sources: • Rosstat data showcase - loss of data, long time for updating, problems with connection to the service; • EMISS - long waiting time for loading, periodically some indicators are blocked for a long time for updating. 4. The need to promptly obtain up-to-date statistical information on the regional economy. For this purpose, the management made enquiries to analysts, which could take considerable time. Solution: Moscow Department for Economic policy and Development created the SQL database, including more than 35 detailed key indicators of economic development of Moscow, Russia and other Russian regions. The database is formed from multiple sources: The Central Bank of Russian Federation, EMISS, Rosstat. − As of 14.08.2024, the total volume of the database is about 27.7 million records, and it is constantly growing by parsing new data. − Statistical data is collected and updated automatically. − Computer vision technologies are used for processing of some statistical documents (in particular in PDF format) to recognize statistical tables and to retrieve the data stored in them. Moscow Department for Economic policy and Development created the system of automatic receipt of operational data on request (Telegram-bot) “DEPR – statistics” for 16 most frequently used indicators. This system was created on the basis of the SQL database.
Cities worldwide are facing the rapidly worsening issue of urban heat, which has severe repercussions for public health, labor productivity, and energy consumption, to name a few. As cities expand and become denser, the effects of urban heat are magnified, particularly in vulnerable communities lacking access to cooling solutions. This issue is exacerbated by a lack of precise and real-time temperature data, making it difficult for cities to pinpoint heat hotspots and implement effective mitigation strategies. FortyGuard addresses this problem with its Temperature Dashboard, an AI-powered solution that provides high-resolution, real-time temperature data and predictive analytics. By integrating data from satellite imagery, IoT sensors, weather stations, and mobile sources, the platform delivers accurate heatmaps with a 10-meter resolution. This allows city planners and other stakeholders to identify urban heat hotspots, monitor temperature trends, and implement tailored cooling strategies. The dashboard also provides post-intervention analytics to measure the effectiveness of these solutions, ensuring continuous improvement in mitigating urban heat and its effects.
In South Africa and broader Africa, we have an issue of affordable meat and we created a business model and platform of which it cuts costs for the consumers/customer. We have digitized the informal meat selling market and have made it affordable through bulk buying and stokvel.
The Ethiopian government faces challenges in delivering public services efficiently due to a lack of digital infrastructure. eGov Ethiopia is a comprehensive digital platform for citizens to access government services online.
To supervise payments within contracts the control department of an executive authority has to open each contract on the website of the Unified Procurement Information System, which is labour intensive. The service for contract execution control was developed to reduce these labour costs. Above mentioned supervision is carried out once a year for the contracts of the executive authority and its subordinate institutions. There is no real-time control tool. The service for contract execution control goals are the following: • Implementation of risk-based approach for payment orders for the contracts within the 44th Russian Federation Federal Law (“On the contract system of procurement of goods and services to assurance state and municipal needs”); • Implementation of the automatic uploading of procurement documents (notice, contract, complaint) from the Unified Procurement Information System. A set of tools (website) has been developed: • To control timely payments within contracts; • To automatically calculate deadlines of payment orders; • To report contract payment deadlines; • To generate and send automatic notifications to responsible executors. The platform implements seamless communication between the Control Department of the Moscow Department for Economic Policy and Development and its subordinate institutions. All calculations of the platform are made in a single information environment, that prevents possible errors of data inconsistency, reminds about payment for contracts, and reduces the number of contract payment delays. Procurement documents (notice, contract, complaint) are automatically uploaded from the Unified Procurement Information System to the network folders of the Control Department of the Moscow Department for Economic Policy and Development.
