Electricity generation using solar energy has the greatest potential of all renewable sources to meet their global energy requirements. The manufacture of Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Cells is an expensive business that relies heavily on the use of water, vacuum pumps and high Global Warming Potential (GWP) chemicals; it is also very labour intensive. The use of these resources comes with significant financial and environmental cost. Nines Photovoltaics has developed new technology and will launch a product range, targeting PV solar cell 80 manufacturers worldwide. These products address the issues detailed above and aim to cause a paradigm shift in the manufacturing process. The Nines' processing tools are designed to work at atmospheric pressure, in a dry environment without the use of greenhouse gasses; in addition they will facilitate the move to high volume inline production and enable the use of cheaper thin wafers and other advanced cell concepts. The Nines’ offering will serve to significantly reduce the cost per watt of PV electricity generation whilst also improving the scalability and sustainability of manufacturing for the industry as a whole.

The potential value of Point-of-Care Testing (PoCT) is well-established; especially in the US. However, the tests currently in use typically measure individual analytes with a wide diversity of instruments that are poorly connected with patient’s health records, providing frustration and inefficiencies for Health Care. With the increasing chronic disease epidemic (diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, kidney disease,), diagnostics at the bedside and in the physician's office are needed to close the linkage between diagnostics and therapies. However, no device offers a test menu that maps the complete chronic and acute disease pathways needed by physicians for informed diagnosis and monitoring. Radisens Diagnostics is developing a digital diagnostic device to perform routine chronic and acute tests needed at point-of-care in GP clinics, emergency rooms and outpatient departments. With initial chronic disease panels of diabetes + heart disease and hypertension + chronic kidney, the company’s roadmap includes panels for cell counting, cardiac and oncology targets. Its disruptive device platform integrates immunochemistry, clinical chemistry and haematology assays onto multiplexed test panels requiring only a drop of blood giving instant results. Its vision of placing diagnostic devices into every physician office and acute hospital setting for chronic / acute conditions will drive significant cost savings and enable performance based incentives required by insurers.
