OnParticle is a method to find and classify the magnetic metal particles in the fluid. It tells you when there is increased risk of an engine failure. That way you can prevent costly failures in ships, offshore wind power and process industries, but also easy to find out when it's time to change the oil in your car.
Venture Cup is an organization that helps the aspiring entrepreneur to develop and implement business ideas. This is done by the world's largest business plan competition where they get feedback, coaching, training, inspiration and access to a good network of contacts.
