N2 Applied is a Norwegian technology company focused on innovative solutions for nitrogen fertilizer production directly on farms. Established in 2010 and headquartered in Oslo, the company has developed a method that allows livestock farmers to convert liquid organic substrates, such as manure and biogas digestate, into fertilizer by extracting nitrogen from the air. This process not only enhances the nitrogen content of the substrate but also mitigates ammonia loss and lowers greenhouse gas emissions. N2 Applied's technology promotes resource efficiency and cost savings for farmers by facilitating local fertilizer production, thus eliminating the need for long supply chains and reliance on fossil-based chemical fertilizers. The company's scalable system contributes to a circular farming model, offering additional benefits such as reductions in methane and ammonia emissions, as well as minimizing odors. N2 Applied operates a test center in Norway and has branches in the Netherlands and the UK, positioning itself within the realms of livestock farming, organic agriculture, and sustainable practices.

Picterus is an app under development designed to diagnose Jaundice in newborns. Untreated jaundice in newborns is responsible for 114,000 deaths and 65,000 permanent brain damages each year. More than three quarters of these deaths occur in the poorest regions of the world, in sub-Saharan Africa and south Asia. Cheap treatment is available through e.g. sunlight, but the diagnostic devices in use today cost around 10,000 dollars, making them practically unavailable in low-resource settings.
