GreenPowerGenerators
Company Description
Reduction in power generation costs will reduce the electricity charge for customers. Two major costs in all power stations are Equipment and Maintenance costs. Higher efficiencies also cheapen electricity charges and benefit environment. Reliability is a very important issue in power stations. Each blackout can cause damage to the tune of billions of pounds. Most blackout caused by the failures of turbine generators. GreenPowerGenerators has developed a novel brushless doubly-fed generator for wind and wave power stations. The novel generator has less manufacturing costs (by down to 10%) and maintenance costs (by down to 60%) and is more efficient (by up to 5%) and more reliable. It operates in a wider range of speeds and introduces higher power quality into the grid (i.e. less harmonic pollution). The market for this technology is largely composed of power plant suppliers. Electrical motor and generator manufacturers are also the target companies. Since the technology is innovative and critical, there is great market potential.

Medicines For Humanity
Company Description
One-third of the world's population does not have access to essential medicines. Pharmaceutical companies have reputational and financial incentives to donate medicines. However, the medical donations process is not meeting its potential. The key problem is a lack of accurate and comprehensive information on unmet medical needs and sources of donations. The MedMap database will provide this, thereby facilitating communication between donors, recipients, and donation channels, and raising public awareness of good medical donations. By consolidating information crucial to all stakeholders, Medicines for Humanity will enable the distribution of the right medicines to the right people at the right time.
