6	VARUN B K	RO Plant monitoring solution
7	VIJAY S	Ozone Based Hand sterlizer
8	GIRISH BHUSHAN	Ozone Based Medical equipment sterlizer
9	VENKATESH KOLLUR	Modular Aeroponics
10	Hemantha Kumara B K	The company is an innovative technology company, has developed an ECU design and manufacturing solution, positioning itself as a reliable import substitute for all EV Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs).
11	Chethana M H	we have developed an idea of production of industrial important raw material from vast available biomedical waste like PPE kits, syringes etc,. With this reusage of biomedical wastes, the pollution burden on the earth can be decreased to a greater extent. Hence, the developed raw material will find application in various industrial sectors for product development there by decreasing environmental pollution and being eco-friendly in nature.
12	Ashwin N	This idea aims to build an efficient design for producing ozonized water for multiple applications ranging from laundry to disinfection. As this is unique and all the systems available in the market are aimed at ozonating the water with not much efficient metering systems, Hence this product solves this problem.
13	Vikram Singh S	Prolific extraction of snail mucin through snail farming termed heliciculture via ethical ways using cruelty free technology prototype developed. We also have our own brand of niche natural topical cosmetic products formulated with snail mucin called SNAIL-IT
14	M Vijay	By knowing the advantages of the organic manure, we have proposed to prepare a richer nutrients organic compost by the wastes obtained by the in the jaggery production plant. The organic compost produced by these wastes will be richer in nutrients when compared to other organic fertilizers. This is the uniqueness/newness of the work.
