Tesera does agile right. Tesera is faster and more specialized than generic development teams. Working with a well-defined process and a specific tool set, they can tackle even the most daunting development tasks. Alignment means a shared understanding of the project goals, consensus on identified constraints and a team focused on the destination. They identify objectives and select the resources and technology required. Work is completed by defining features and setting priorities for their  weekly releases. They invest in design to cost effectively answer critical business questions. Prototyping allows them to test ideas, learn and quickly narrow in on the winners. They refine with their continuous integration (CI), clients see an evolving solution. There is no unveiling, no wait and see—their clients are engaged, they see and test as they build it.

Avestec believes that oil & gas companies should be able to perform site inspections without sending people to dangerous heights and hazardous areas. By using robotics for tank inspection, it completely removes the possibility of injury while simultaneously decreasing cost and significantly decreasing the downtime resulting from manual inspection. Avestec uses visual inspection and UT measurement for skyron tethered drone provides visual inspection and ultrasonic thickness measurement for hazardous and confined spaces. They fulfill American Petroleum Institute (API) standards for inspection and maintenance of tanks, pressure vessels and equipment. Avestec increases safety through their drone technology as it prevents humans from entering confined and hard to reach spaces dramatically reducing over risk. They also reduce costs/downtime as less setup for inspection means less downtime and more money saved.

Nutrient pollution is the most widespread form of water pollution in the world today, and it is significantly threatening global health and food security.
Per year over 20 million metric tons of precious nutrients, phosphorus & nitrogen, with a fertilizer value over $15B leak to the environment from agricultural lands, untreated human waste flows and many other points. 
We urgently need sustainable and affordable filtration solutions to stop the spread of damage and claim back the precious resources and lost profits. 
With this mission in our minds, we have developed an exciting and innovative process to make affordable and efficient filters and filtering agents to address nutrient runoff on a global scale and decrease the cost of nutrient recovery process significantly.
Our patent-pending filters and filtering agents are produced using abundant, readily available waste materials and natural resources. They can capture and remove large amounts of phosphorus and nitrogen from waste flows generated by livestock agriculture (manure), croplands, wastewater, and sewage treatment facilities, food treatment and processing facilities, fish farms, mines, and other point and non-point sources. Removed nutrients can be used as a sustainable and concentrated fertilizer with or without after treatment.

Reforus is a private company from Vancouver BC specializing in state of the art building technologies.  For the past 7 years Reforus has focused on creating high performance composite panels from timber that would be considered worthless by loggers, mill owners, and developers.  The founders of Reforus have over 40 years of “hands on” project development in the building industry. This experience has led to the creation of the BuildPanel building platform which dramatically reduces the costs of labour, materials, and project management allowing high quality temporary to permanent structures to be clicked together in hours using un-skilled labour. 

BuildPanel is a modular system where structures can be assembled, modified, and disassembled with a simple change of components.  By utilizing waste stream timber and eliminating many of the costs associated with traditional building methods, Reforus has developed a platform that can be used world-wide.  BuildPanel structures have the durability and finish that consumers throughout North America desire, while being affordable to people around the world.

PROXXI is smart sensor that allows us to see electricity with software. We have built the first digital electric field sensor that can interpret voltage and distance. The first product we have built is the Proxxiband which is targeted at electrical workers. It notifies the wearer by vibration (haptic feedback) when they get too close to an electric current, and helps reinforce the limits of approach.

Targeted at utility workers and those in industry at risk of electrocution, it is a device that provides companies peace of mind and visibility through connected monitoring and insights into employee safety. Each year, over 2000 electric utility employees in North America are electrocuted, with thousands more exposed to this danger in other industries. Each of these incidences costs between $1-4 Million dollars in insurance expenses, resulting in $3 billion per year expense.

Currently, there are no ambient, connected, always-on devices used to detect electricity. Workers rely on process to de-energize and follow lockout procedures. PROXXI provides that fail safe backup to virtually eliminate the risk.

NOMAD’s designers and engineers have certainly pushed the limits of small-space living. By incorporating innovative loft access, abundance of natural light, and varied ceiling heights, this tiny home feels truly bigger than its four walls. “We knew that a space this size could feel comfortable with enough thought. Our goal was to produce a liveable, efficient home with minimal impact on yard space and the environment”. 35 years of design and home-building experience provided the answers. NOMAD’s living room, kitchen, bathroom, stair, bedroom, and storage are all seamlessly integrated: access to the loft doubles as a kitchen, a window adds light to one area and a higher ceiling to another, a bathroom doubles as a shower, storage that can be used as seating, and so on. These features are not obvious at first glance, but all are essential to NOMAD’s livability.

NOMAD’s concept expanded significantly when it was engineered for home assembly and shipment worldwide. Following successful prototype engineering, developing, and testing, NOMAD is now in production in British Columbia, Canada.
