Last week, on the sidelines of the Open Innovations international forum, Skolkovo Foundation and Helyx Technologies inked a cooperation agreement to implement a “green tech park.”
The initiative builds on the GreenTech Startup Booster, launched last year, which is now touted as “the largest international program for the development and implementation of technological projects in the field of ecology.”
The new tech park will “aim to develop and implement innovative green technologies, production processes and supply chains,” the partners stated.
Helyx Technologies General Director Sergey Abramenko commented: “We want to reach a new level, not only to seek and implement innovative technologies ourselves, but also to create the necessary infrastructure for all Russian companies. From our own experience, we know what is needed to develop and implement innovative green technologies, and we are ready to share the accumulated experience with our partners”.
Oleg Dubnov, Vice President of the Skolkovo Foundation and Head of the Energy Efficient Technologies Cluster, said: “I hope that our industrial partners will support this idea and come to us for green innovations.”
For more than 15 years, Russian company Helyx has been developing solutions for water purification, water treatment, air purification, waste management, and more. These solutions help companies reduce harmful emissions and energy consumption by reusing resources. The company has four factories in Russia.
