We're proud to announce that we've won 3rd place in the Tapojärvi Innovation Challenge 2023! This prestigious competition, organized by Tapojärvi Oy in partnership with EIT Raw Materials, called for innovative solutions to address mining waste, steel slags, and forest industrial side streams.

Our team, led by Ayodeji Clement Akinola (CEO) and Yangyiwei Yang (CTO), with the expert guidance of Prof. Dr. Bai-Xiang Xu and Prof. Dr. Bilal Gokce, developed a pioneering solution for treating steel slags and fly ash using nanoparticle dispersion strengthened (NPDS) steel. This achievement is not just a testament to our team's innovation but also a step towards sustainable waste management and resource utilization.

We thank everyone in our community for their support and look forward to further advancing our solution. This accolade strengthens our commitment to making a positive environmental impact.
