In its efforts to bring innovative technologies to the forefront in the discussion on building a more sustainable future, #lgelectronics presented its selected startups from LG NOVA’s Mission for the Future challenge program on the world stage at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in #davos, Switzerland and the Collision Conference in #toronto, Canada.
The top agenda at this year’s WEF conference was climate change and sustainability. Three startups from LG NOVA – Eatron Technologies, Duckt by Acton and Faction – participated to share their solutions for greener mobility. During the week, the three presented their business solutions at the Climate Tech Showcase at the Hotel Seehof hosted by the #green Accelerator, sponsored by LG NOVA, and were later selected to pitch at the Altru Institute’s “Best of Davos” #event.
“Attending WEF #davos together with the LG NOVA team was an eye-opening experience,” said Dr. #umutgenc, managing director of Eatron Technologies. “Not only did we pitch Eatron’s battery management system technology in front of leading sustainability players, but we also had the chance to have deep and meaningful discussions with the LG NOVA team and partners on further collaboration.”
In addition to supporting startups in the First 50, LG NOVA participated in various keynotes, presentations and panels throughout the week. Patrick Lin, an entrepreneur-in-residence with the LG NOVA team, spoke at the Altru Institute about innovations in the EV sector. Will Barkis, head of ecosystem and grand challenges, presented a keynote at the Climate Technology showcase, while Limor Schafman, director of strategy and operations at LG NOVA, was a panelist on the practical implications for equal access at the House of Balance on the #davos Promenade.
Following the #worldeconomicforum #event, the LG NOVA team headed to #toronto, Canada to join 33,000 attendees at the #collisionconference. The sold-out show was an opportunity for LG NOVA, alongside the #lgelectronics Canada, to share the company’s message of innovation through collaboration with businesses to attendees from around the world.
With well over 1,200 startups in attendance and new startups exhibiting every day, representatives from LG NOVA, LG Canada and the LG Business Solutions Company had the opportunity to speak with hundreds of attendees, including startups, investors and accelerators, on LG’s innovative initiatives and LG NOVA’s annual Mission for the Future challenge program.
At the #event, LG NOVA announced its “Selected 20” startups that have been chosen to move forward in the 2021 Mission for the Future challenge. The #event provided an opportunity for LG NOVA to highlight three representative startups – I-EMS Group, Ltd., LifeNome and YBVR, which represent Energizing Mobility, Connected Health and the Metaverse space, respectfully.
Both events provided great opportunities for LG and LG NOVA to not only showcase the future through its ongoing #startup collaboration but to also create awareness for LG’s vision of innovating to improve the quality of life and efforts toward building a better future.
