The #GreaterZurichArea isn't just a hotspot; it's the nexus where academia and industry collide to shape tomorrow. An insightful Sifted article assessed the 15 fastest-growing university spinouts in Europe, and guess what? The Greater Zurich Area is standing tall as a breeding ground for tech innovators. Climeworks: Far from simply mitigating CO2 emissions, they're actually reversing the numbers. Utilizing #DirectAirCapture technology, Climeworks sucks #carbon dioxide out of the air and stores it underground. Think of it as an atmospheric U-turn, all backed by more than $750m in funding. 🌿 Nexxiot: Imagine knowing the real-time status of every shipping container, anywhere in the world. Their #IoT sensors attach to cargo and communicate with a cloud-based platform. Gone are the days of "where's my shipment?" — with more than $100m in funding, they're making global #logistics smarter and more transparent. 🌐 Planted: The #meat you love, but made from plants. We're not talking tofu; we're talking culinary alchemy that turns plant proteins into succulent, juicy "meat". A greener alternative without the sacrifice, and with at least $100m backing their vision, Planted Foods is #foodtech at its finest. 🍽 Curious to know more?

#tennessee and #chattanooga sit at the intersection of a shift from traditional manufacturing to tech-based manufacturing and innovation. We rode a wave of major manufacturing investments but now is the time to set the table for how we continue that economic success into the 2030s and 2040s. As Richard Florida states here, our universities like The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga are critical partners in our ability to create strong talent pipelines in emerging sectors like #quantumcomputing, #artificialintelligence and #smartcity technologies. And our #entrepreneurialecosystem has to be leveraged and invested in through key partners like LaunchTN. This is how Tennessee and Chattanooga stay economically relevant in the 21st century. https://lnkd.in/edF9XDat
