Solution Name: Value Chain Generator® by VCG.ai
Target Challenge: Developing a tool to help upcycle geographically distributed food surplus.
Using big data and AI to turn organic residuals of one industry into valuable resources for another.
Solution Description
Value Chain Generator® by VCG.ai is an AI platform that turns organic residuals of one industry into valuable resources for another.
It is powered by a proprietary BioLink® algorithm, which intelligently matches industrial residuals with innovative technologies for their value-adding transformation and with the industries looking for these new input materials in the geographic region.
The outcome are circular value chains that help industries move beyond the one-time linear material use.
They increase resilience, value created for all partners involved, and green employment, while simultaneously reducing carbon emissions and waste.
The challenge we are addressing is how to help upcycle geographically distributed food surplus at scale with technology. This has not only the potential for generating local valorisation ecosystem and resilient short supply chains, but also introduces a way to efficiently manage extremely large and complex circular value chains.
Value Chain Generator® has a database of over 1 million companies and an ever-expanding 400 BioLink® solutions applicable to a wide spectrum of organic materials anywhere in the world. Its innovative technology was recognized with Oracle Sustainability Award and NLB Bank Frame of Help Award.
