VEGARDEN is an innovative Agritech startup, with an integrated Aquaponic ecosystem.
In this model, insects are bred on organic waste from greenhouse plant cultivation to create a high-protein feed source for fish. Those fish are farmed in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS), achieving a biomass yield per m3 three times higher than traditional aquaponics, and ensuring optimal health through full control of farming conditions. Water from RAS is then treated in multistage bioreactors, allowing the conversion of waste into nutrients for plants, recovering over 90% of nutrients usually lost in traditional systems. Greenhouse plants, grown via vertical farming, benefit from enriched water, yielding annually five times more than field cultivation, with over 95% savings in water and land use. Finally, plant waste is reused as feed for insect larvae, reducing insect farm operational costs by 40%.

Our start-up VH Quatrevingtreize developed a smart autonomous vessel, integrating its worldwide patented hydroturbines in the device, to transform wave movements into renewable energy.
The energy is stored onboard and supplied offshore to research, defense and industries. The produced energy can also be used directly onboard for production and supply of finished "goods" to the continent (fresh water through desalination, green hydrogen, CO2 captation on the sea.. )

OceanConnected allows any internet user to practice "virtual dive" as an alternative to scuba dive. It associates professional divers (instructors and scientists) diving in undersea sites around the world, equipped with a submersible, computerised, connected console named Dolphyn, with internet users, subscribers of the web platform OceanConnected. It further mobilises biomimetic underwater robots, connected with this console for deeper diving. It allows, by programming the robot, its use for stationary observation of, for exemple, coral reefs, without disturbing the ecosystem. Contrary to scuba diving, virtual dive allows the geo-positioning of the collected images, its identification through data basis. It further allows the discover and exploration of the undersea mobilising social networks and offering to young children in schools the access to ocean depths, in real time end interactively.
