The EmergencyLocate platform provides solutions to emergency, search, and rescue functions by rapidly and accurately pinpointing exactly where assistance is needed using geospatial technology.

The platform includes a two-way fully translatable text messenger to help overcome any communication barriers and uses 3D satellite mapping to display the location of the person in need whilst also building a clear picture of the surrounding that leads to enhanced dispatch decision making.

EMCAI Solutions is an early-stage startup, which is creating software-based tools for the construction industry.

Construction projects often face delays and budget overruns due to inefficient tender evaluation and inaccurate cost estimation processes, impacting profitability and operational efficiency. The industry’s use of AI is hindered by the lack of up-to-date and location-adjusted data.

EMCAI uses AI and machine learning in their primary products, which are being developed for construction cost planning. These will help to streamline the evaluation of tenders and improve the quality and speed of early-stage cost advice.

In the UK and International rail freight sectors, most freights wagons are not digital, and the condition of components is only discovered on periodic inspection. Environmentally, a typical freight train cuts carbon emissions by 76% compared to road haulage.

Weavecentrix are looking to increase the number of functioning freight wagons available for transport through their innovative geospatial solution.

Weavecentrix solves this problem by providing rail freight operators with real time information about their wagons, using IoT (Internet of Things) devices, operational data and geospatial predictive modelling to inform rail freight operators about wagon problems, before they impact safety and / or availability, allowing rail freight operators to make timely, actionable decisions and resulting in less wagon down time.

VanFill Ltd’s goal is to reduce transport costs, save time and cut carbon emissions through their mobile and web application, (two-sided marketplace). This will connect businesses and individuals looking to transport their goods with transport providers who have empty spaces in their vans and trucks.

VanFill Ltd aims to help utilise the full range of infrastructure to improve the efficiency of goods transportation, consolidate deliveries and improve route planning, giving customers access to a variety of available transportation options.

Real estate and infrastructure developers need efficient solutions for managing supply chain costs and quantities to mitigate cost and embodied carbon increases.

Optab is designed to address recurring inefficiencies, reduced productivity, and transparency issues within the built environment and construction sector, promoting better utilisation of the limited resources and materials available.

Optab’s SAAS platform allows construction teams to track trends, monitor carbon, and assess costs proactively, providing clients with actionable insights to manage costs and decrease their carbon footprint. Through the Optab platform, construction teams can optimise every aspect of the supply chain process for better outcomes, cost efficiency, and greener implementation.
