Our innovation, mycofiltration, is a 30-year-studied process using fungal mycelium to filter nitrogen and phosphorus from water. It emits 10x less CO₂ than traditional methods, requires minimal energy, and is 100% organic, enabling local, low-cost pollution treatment. Plus, the collected nutrients are composted into fertile soil, which can be reused on the same farm, ensuring no new pollutants.
I joined BeStart to connect to the relevant stakeholders in the nitrogen crisis. This is government entities regulating emissions, entities providing services to farmers to manage their emissions,entities providing subsidies for innovation for farmers to adopt innovations and farmers themselves. I hope BeStart can connect me to the relevant people within these organisations or at least, point me in the right direction.

Emito transforms mobility management for Dutch MKB businesses with a user-friendly platform for tracking employee travel. With the WPM regulation effective July 1, 2024, compliance is essential for companies with 100+ employees. Our app exceeds standards with automatic trip tracking, gamification, and sustainability incentives. Partnering with byAr Bicycle and Fietspechpas under Poldar Groep, our BAAS (Bicycle as a Service) concept offers durable e-bikes, 24/7 service, on/off-grid charging, and seamless integration with sustainability regulations—delivering the most advanced sustainability solution.
We joined BeStart to further validate our concept and test our Emito app MVP in a real-world environment. This program offers us the chance to reflect on our progress thus far and identify any overlooked or skipped steps we may have missed initially. Moreover, we are eager to gather valuable feedback from end-users and company management, enabling us to refine the usability of our app. Additionally, we aspire to establish pilot locations in the northern Netherlands and create partnerships with universities for engaging student projects. We believe that innovation thrives when we embrace fresh perspectives and break free from limitations, and we hope to take these opportunities to enhance our business within this program

The product is a formulation based on a biodegradable biocide and a exopolysaccharide (glucose) mixed in water. The product is injected into the waterflow of cooling water systems and forms a protective layer on the internal surfaces of a system.
To create more focus in business development and to expand our network with relevant connections that really matter to our business.

We map the unseen. Soil property maps help farmers adopt regenerative agriculture by enabling precision farming—going beyond field-level management to location- or plant-based strategies. Our maps reveal invisible properties, allowing farmers to optimize cultivation for greater climate resilience and profitability.
Support in organising the business, in making choices for a better focus and in getting a better grip on our growth and scale out.

Zavhy's 3D concrete printing (3DCP) transforms construction by addressing challenges with efficient layering, reducing waste, and offering customizable structures. Using eco-friendly materials and precise application, it aligns with sustainability goals, lowers carbon footprints, and integrates with Building Information Modeling (BIM) for streamlined construction. Zavhy's end-to-end solution optimises 3DCP, driving industry digitisation and automation.
Zavhy's primary value proposition centers on decarbonizing the building and construction industry, positioning it as a cleantech or climate tech startup. One significant challenge is persuading the government, its primary stakeholder, to adopt Zavhy's sustainability and circularity solutions and to allow pilot projects. Stricter regulations related to circularity and sustainability in construction tenders could help offset the additional costs of Zavhy's 3D concrete printing (3DCP) solution and facilitate widespread adoption in the Dutch construction industry. Zavhy seeks to understand how to effectively approach European governments to adopt and promote policies favoring climate change and cleantech startups from the BeStart program.

Our product is an integrated suite of apps designed to monitor and manage aquatic vegetation. It uses artificial intelligence and satellite data to accurately track the growth of water plants. This information is provided to water managers for informed decision-making, to mowing contractors for efficient operations, and to recreational users for safe and enjoyable routes. The goal is to balance ecological health and recreational accessibility in water bodies.
We joined BeStart because we see it as a great opportunity to grow and scale our venture. Through the program, we hope to gain valuable insights from experts, investors, and fellow green tech startups. We also look forward to leveraging BeStart's network and resources to further develop our business strategy, refine our product offerings, and expand our reach in the market.
