Collaborating for Climate Adaptation in South Africa and Kenya
We are excited to kick off two innovative projects under the RVO SBIR program: “Innovations for increased resilience to climate change in Africa”

We are excited to kick off two innovative projects under the RVO SBIR program: “Innovations for increased resilience to climate change in Africa”
We are proud to contribute to sustainable solutions for climate challenges in Africa through two promising initiatives:
Profitable and Sustainable Local Algae Production in South Africa
This project explores the feasibility of locally producing and refining microalgae for applications in food, animal feed, and natural colorants. With the use of renewable energy, this approach has the potential to reduce CO₂ emissions and promote responsible water usage. By bringing together local and international partners, we aim to explore and combine innovative cultivation and processing methods into a sustainable concept. The goal is to accelerate the protein transition, create new economic opportunities, and make the food chain more sustainable.
Tuk Tuk Cargo Water Filtration System in Kenya
A locally designed and built mobile off-grid water filtration system powered by solar energy. The system aims to purify untreated water from Lake Turkana into safe drinking water for surrounding communities, with a focus on the El Molo community. This smart system is designed to provide not only clean water but also basic electricity. The project is centred around developing a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), tailored to the needs of the community, to gather further feedback and improve the solution. A double impact on both health and economic development!
Together, we are working on climate-relevant innovations with real impact. Are you also active in these sectors? Feel free to contact one of the involved consultants.
How can we improve access to healthcare for women in remote communities in Mozambique? As part of an SBIR feasibility study supported by RVO, our field research explored challenges related to maternal healthcare, reproductive health and access to reliable health information. These insights will inform the development of a modular, mobile healthcare system tailored to the needs of local communities.

Two pairs of eyes are better than one! Even as a quality consultant, it can sometimes be difficult to see the bigger picture when you are closely involved in an organisation. For example, when you provide interim support and work with a company on a daily basis, certain ways of working can start to feel like second nature. And that's exactly when a fresh pair of eyes can make all the difference!

The revised ISO 9001 standard was published on 16 September 2026. After more than ten years, a new edition of this international quality management standard has arrived.
