Techno start-ups Currentsituation: • Start ups relatedto Leiden University, Eramus University and Delft University of Technology Developments: • Clean Tech = biobasedeconomy/ biotech, clean chemistry, clean energy (renewable resources: (geo)thermal, (bio)solar, tidal, wind, biomass, cold-warmth buffering andnetworks etc.) • Med Tech/Life & Health Sc.(farmaceuticals, biotech, ict, biobasedeconomy) • Delta Tech (watersafety, floodcontrol, watermanagement, ict, etc)
Examples of cleantech startups • Ampelmann – offshore windenergy service platform • Epyon (ABB) – fast charging of electric cars • Alert solutions – providing water safetybydevelopingminiaturized sensors in waterbarriers • Windchallenge – small wind turbines forurbanusage • Elemetal – recovery of pure copperfrom the ashes of energy-to-waste plants • Bluerise – clean, renewable energy fromoceanicthermal energy systems • Eternal Sun – testing equipment forsolar power systems
Government focus area’s • Building blockschemistry: isobutanol, ethanol biofuels etc. • Materials: composites, plastics • High value: farmaceutics, cosmetics, food supplements, colours, tastes, insecticides, pesticides etc. • Bio energy • Solar, thermal; tidal, wind energy etc. • Climateproof design, coastal design, floodcontrol etc. • National government focus via topsector policy and subsidies
