KegTracker is a company that has launched an innovative Internet of Things (IoT) enabled device that turns kegs into smart containers. The device tracks real-time location, volume, temperature and motion for each keg in order to create reports & insights that enable a sustainable supply chain. The company asserts that a lack of transparency in managing kegs has led to annual industry losses of £1.4 billion+ in theft and spoilage, £1 billion+ in poor distribution, and £500 million+ in suboptimal production and lost containers. KegTracker argues that its device can reduce these losses significantly. The company has developed a working prototype, filed a patent and received letters of interest from leading UK breweries, coffee roasters and Wales National Health Service (NHS). In 2019, the company featured in Startups Magazine and were finalists at FutureFood Awards, London & Partners BGP, and Pitch@Palace. It will use the investment to bring its product to more markets.

A secure digital platform that lets extended family members follow a pupil’s journey through their school yearsSocial networks are big business in the networked world that we live in today. Acknowledge Xc’s new online digital platform harnesses the power of existing school websites, enabling a pupil’s family members to follow their years at school.Having collaborated with top schools including Eton, Berkhamstead, Wellington College, Stowe School and Steiner Schools, Acknowledge is looking for investment to complete the build of its internet-based platform.As the platform is in the later stages of development, the company has already had a significant amount of collaborative input from schools and parents.Pupils jointly create profiles with their school, publishing videos, pictures and events relating to academic achievements and extra curriculum interests that could otherwise go unnoticed. Access is granted to extended family using secure methods, allowing these members to log in, view and even comment on a pupil’s activity. An additional feature of this platform is that each profile can be used to supplement a pupil’s academic CV and enhance applications for different schools. It acts as proof of past commitments and extra curricular activities and can support personal statements.The key market for Acknowledge is the independent schools sector in the UK which has around 500,000 pupils in 1200 schools. The company also has plans for expansion into overseas markets, and has estimated this market to contain around 3 million pupils – a figure which looks set to double by 2022. A revenue share scheme is in place to reward schools with a charitable donation and a referral fee is in place to reward those who help the model grow quickly. The first 10 founder schools will also receive more rewards.

Novai is a UK biotechnology company, developing and commercialising transformational technology in ophthalmology. The company's initial focus is on ophthalmic disorders such as glaucoma and AMD (Age-related Macular Degeneration). Novai argues that current clinical endpoints lack early disease biomarkers to objectively detect and measure cell health and response to treatment in the retina. Novai asserts that its proprietary biological marker, DARC (Detection of Apoptosis in Retinal Cells), combined with its bespoke and patented Artificial Intelligence (AI) aided algorithm, allows, for the first time in vivo, identification of cellular-level disease activity in the retina. Novai stresses that DARC can also predict disease progression, allowing for enrichment of clinical trial cohorts. The company anticipates an exit via licensing of its biomarker business to a Contract Research Organisation (CRO), an Initial Public Offering (IPO) following a successful phase 3 trial of the diagnostic platform, or trade sale to a strategic pharmaceutical company.
