Innovation is a key sector of entrepreneurship and has always been essential for businesses. The R&D department and incentives to innovate through awards given to inventors are therefore one of the priorities of entrepreneurs who want to succeed. Who are these people who stand out from the crowd and show extraordinary creativity in all sectors?
Raul Bravo
34-year-old young engineer Raul Bravo has invented a geolocation system applied to the industry to make the movement of forklifts automatic. A laser guides the machine and tells it what obstacles to avoid and what tasks to accomplish. This laser guidance, designed to make the work of all workers less painful and repetitive, could well revolutionize the industry.
Rebecca Abergel
A brilliant scientist, Rebecca Abergel has succeeded in developing a process for extracting radioactive materials from an individual contaminated by nuclear radiation. A real medical feat, the young woman’s invention is of great interest to nuclear power plant managers and public authorities.
Rémi Dangla
At only 28 years old, this young researcher and already founder of his own company, Stilla Technologies, has invented genetic tests that detect and identify precisely the DNA molecules present in a blood sample using a non-electronic chip. This “microfluidic” chip thus allows scientific laboratories to save significant sums on medical research.
Deniz Dalkara
Specializing in molecular biology, this brilliant 34-year-old scientist has been fighting for years against degenerative diseases of the retina. She has invented a virus that copies genes and then mimics their action on the cells of the retina. Deniz Dalkara could well restore sight to millions of people by gradually making them sensitive to light.
Stanislas Ostoja-Starzewski
A young Polish engineer aged 28, Stanislas Ostoja-Starzewski could well revolutionize the Internet planet by considerably lowering connection costs. The engineer has indeed developed a satellite technology based on those in zero gravity to develop communication networks. These nano-satellites would thus come to help all those in white areas or with difficult access to the Web.
Thomas Samuel
A brilliant scientist, Thomas Samuel is working to make electricity accessible to all developing countries. He has developed a technology halfway between LED bulbs and photovoltaic panels, which will allow these countries to obtain low-cost and easily accessible electricity. With no maintenance and no additional costs, this innovative technology has already been adopted by NGOs and now equips the Jordanian refugee camp of Zaatari.
David Vissière
Winner of the prestigious MIT Technology Innovation Prize, this 34-year-old engineer and polytechnician founded his company Sysnav in 2008. David Vissière has indeed invented a revolutionary process of geolocation without a GPS system. This new technology aims to overcome the shortcomings of the navigation system, which in 20% of cases is inoperative due to magnetic fields. The engineer has thus developed a geolocation system that takes over from GPS when it is ineffective, which could well be of interest to the entire security, armament and medical industry.
