Carnot is developing hydrogen engines with key components manufactured from ceramics able to withstand fuel combustion temperatures, eliminating the need for cooling systems and doubling the efficiencies of modern engines. The company argues that modern engines waste on average one-third of fuel energy to cool systems that stop metallic components from melting. Carnot claims that its engines eliminate this waste doubling efficiency, halve fuel costs and CO2 and achieve net-zero operation by operating on biofuels and hydrogen benefiting the long haul transport, marine and primary off-grid power markets. Carnot has raised over £600,000 including a pre-seed round in 2020 for £357,000 at a pre-money valuation of £2 million, a £300,000 Innovate UK grant and another £300,000 Eureka Eurostar’s grant. Carnot has a 5-year, 3-phase exit strategy and will begin licensing its IP at the end of 2023 at which point it will begin generating revenue. It will eventually look for acquisition from one of its manufacturing partners in 2025 after demonstrating industry acceptance of its technology.

Carbon Negative Permeable Pavement Systems (CNPPS) offers Carbon Negative solution for hard surfaces like pavements and road networks. The company uses secondary aggregates, waste products and carbon-negative materials in its pavement systems which absorb more carbon in the manufacturing process than the carbon emitted per square meter by traditional carbon-intensive road construction methods. CNPPS's products are also permeable and can reduce flooding caused by rainwater run-off, thereby improving road safety. The company argues that its products are an estimated 5-8% less expensive than the currently used processes, having the potential to lessen the infrastructure budgets of the UK government. CNPPS requires initial funding to carry out a trial of its system by the Highways of England. The company will use the investment funds to trial, accredit, CE mark and market CNPPS, and generate buyer interest in its products.

Facebook, YouTube and others try, but they have not accommodated segmentation of sports users. • Latest sports products will be targeted to users via advertisements relevant to their specific interest. • Delivering a continually expanding and evolving library, always providing current information • Website structure that encourages ‘social activity’ and ‘networking’ between coaches and other members, www.coachanyway.com is the’ Linkedin for Sports Coaches’ Our Proposed Business Model:1) During the Beta stage of development we will be able to track the top 8 leading sports that havetriggered the most interest from the public.
