Some lucky riders were able to do just that! ⬇️ Our portfolio company, Roboat, has finished demonstrations of its autonomous electric ferry on the city's Bassin de la Villette. 🎉 City officials, public transport operators, technology partners and some lucky onlookers jumped on the sleek ferry for rides across the canal. 🛥️ "It was a fun and insightful experience to find out about and meet the real mobility needs of these commuters, providing a new and exciting, fast and environmentally friendly way to move across the city rivers and canals," says the team. "The feedback we got from our passengers has made us ever more motivated to continue and evolve our smart waterborne navigation solutions for urban areas and transport operators worldwide." 📽️ Take a look at the video below to see what riding on one of these ferries is like!

What's next for drone technology in the public safety and security fields? 💭 Our portfolio company, AirHub, has some thoughts on that subject. 👇 Today, 9️⃣0️⃣% of drone operations are conducted with visual line of sight (VLOS) with multirotors. These drones are best for: ⦁ Close-range, on-site operations ⦁ Maneuvering in tight spaces ⦁ Capturing detailed data at close range For example, multirotors can provide a quick aerial perspective for police or fire departments responding to an incident. 🔥🚨 But drone technology, regulations and operational models are advancing, paving the way for increasingly complex and integrated missions. "The future will likely see a blend of multirotors, fixed-wing and vertical take-off and landing drones conducting beyond visual line of sight missions," says the Airhub team. "This evolution will enable large-scale, multi-drone operations that offer unprecedented coverage, efficiency, and adaptability." The benefits of the other drone technologies? Fixed-wing drones: ➜ Great at covering large areas at high speeds ➜ High-endurance missions ➜ Examples could be critical infrastructure management and border security, where large regions need to be surveyed regularly Vertical take-off and landing drones; ➜ Hybrid solution with longer range and precision hovering ➜ Can take off and land in remote/rural locations where space is limited ➜ Examples could be multi-phase missions, such as detailed inspection after wide-area surveying "As beyond visual line of sight operations become more common, AirHub’s platform will empower organizations to manage these complex missions, ensuring that teams remain connected, data is secure and operations are both efficient and safe" says the team. 🔗 Interested in this topic?

"Validation is strategic. Use early-stage learnings to build credibility and market fit," says Robbert Lodewijks, CEO and co-founder of our portfolio company, HULO.ai. This was one of Robbert's key takeaways from his recent conversation with Ton Dobbe while talking about the enterprise sales trap. "I had a great conversation with Ton Dobbe on the challenges of scaling enterprise SaaS and why so many companies get stuck in 'innovation theater' instead of landing real contracts," Robert said. These were two more of his key takeaways: 💦 Working with water utilities takes time. Design a process with clear metrics, not just hustle. 🗣️ ASK instead of TELL. Enterprise customers can be complex. Try to identify all DMUs and ASK them instead of TELLING them.

"As the world energy system transitions to renewable sources, the importance of weather regime forecasts will only grow," says Steven van den Tol, COO of our portfolio company, Beyond Weather. But wait...what are weather regime forecasts? 🤔 In his recent LinkedIn blog, Steven explained that a weather regime represents a recurring, persistent pattern in large-scale atmospheric circulation that can influence the weather across vast regions for days or even weeks. 🌍🌧️ Beyond Weather forecasts weather regimes beyond the traditional horizon by leveraging advances in #AI to make regime forecasts more reliable on longer lead times. These long-range forecasts can help businesses stay ahead of market shifts and make better-informed decisions and strategies. 📈 For example, energy utility companies and energy trading houses can use weather regime forecasts to stay ahead of the curve as shifts in temperature, wind and precipitation directly influence energy demand and supply. Any edge in prediction can translate into massive gains or crucial savings. 💸 Read the full blog to find out more about how the energy industry uses weather forecasts to stay ahead of the curve > https://lnkd.in/duKz2-hw Andy, Sven, Dagmar, Sabine, Thomas, Meron, Federico, Pim, Henk, Jorge, Linn-Cecilie, Margarita, Joshua #innovation #startup #goodthingsarecoming #impactinvesting
