We live and breathe
our customers’ worlds
Not just their technology opportunities and challenges, but the real world issues they face every day. The way we do it is through our own industry specialist teams – dedicated, experienced people who talk your language, understand your problems, and think, eat and sleep the best ways of resolving them.
MedTech
Healthcare innovation is a pressing need in both developed and developing countries. Drawing on recent advances in low-power miniature sensors, actuators, diagnostics, and robotics, SmallTech is working at the cutting edge of the healthcare revolution. Our clients ranging from Fortune 100 pharmaceutical companies to early-stage wellness startups have trusted us to develop their next-generation devices: handheld point-of-care diagnostics suitable for remote areas, novel drug delivery methods, smart implants for disease management, new ways of tracking sports and fitness performance. Independently, SmallTech has invented a new type of Hemodialysis pump, a technology which we are incubating in-house.
Transportation
To level up to the next generation of transportation, crucial innovations in technologies related to autonomous driving are needed. SmallTech works closely with key players in the autonomous vehicle market space - LiDAR technology startups and established automobile manufacturers - helping them advance technologies that are currently under development and finding innovative applications for their patented technologies.
Food and Beverage
Sustainable, but also cost-efficient, production at scale is critical for food & beverage manufacturers to successfully adapt to changing market & regulatory environments. We have helped our clients to develop light-weight sustainable packaging materials and innovative manufacturing processes to improve quality and efficiency. Innovation allows our clients not only adapt to changing market conditions, but also to thrive in their target market segments by leveraging advances in sensing & computing technology, industrial machine connectivity, and artificial intelligence.
Smart Infrastructure
SmallTech helps our clients gain more from their existing assets by adding a digital layer on top of existing physical infrastructure. Such digital retrofitting is frequently a cost-effective value addition, helping to unlock potential for digital services from existing assets. For example, SmallTech can implement sensor networks that can operate with minimal maintenance even under severe operating conditions. We can complement data from sensors with GIS data to generate actionable insights using custom-built machine learning algorithms and interactive web applications.
CleanTech
SmallTech has worked on a variety of CleanTech projects ranging from battery electrode design for electric vehicles to mitigation of urban-heat-island effects on processing plant sites. We draw on knowledge and expertise built up over decades of experience in technologies related to buildings & infrastructure, power, transport, water management, and agriculture.
Consumer Electronics
Through Zikon Inc., we are actively incubating and developing Flexible Electronics based Displays. The in-house development of nanotechnology-based electronic inks enables next generation flexible and conformal Electronic Paper displays (e-paper). These highly reflective, low-cost, energy-efficient displays will find applications as smart electronic shelf-labels or deployed as human interface of IoT devices.
