InfraChallenge Top 10

It’s time to announce the Top 10 solutions for resilient infrastructure

InfraChallenge 2021 invited ideas for building and maintaining better, more resilient infrastructure. Today we announce the Top 10 competitors whose solutions leverage technologies from artificial intelligence to data mining.

The Top 10 teams in the Global Infrastructure Hub (GI Hub) InfraChallenge 2021 are:

• 030Solutions from Germany
• Akyas Sanitation from Jordan
• Avus from France
• Detektia from Spain
• ESG Base from UK
• Greenrail from Italy
• InfraClear from USA
• Iris from Canada
• Oris from France
• Xpert Converters from Spain.

View the Top 10 solutions and hear their pitches here.

The journey of the Top 10 began with closure of the InfraChallenge applications in March 2021. From a competitive field representing more than 30 countries, the Top 20 teams were selected and completed a six-week mentoring program with InfraChallenge partners to build out their idea and pitch for a place in the Top 10.

Now, we move into the next phase of the competition, where the Top 10 teams will compete for the winning prize, to be announced at the InfraChallenge Final event in September 2021.

Congratulations to the Top 10 finalists, and thank you to our InfraChallenge partners and mentors.

About InfraChallenge 2021

Delivered by the GI Hub, the annual InfraChallenge competition aims to create a more resilient and quality-focused infrastructure ecosystem for the future. This year, the competition is supported by the Italian G20 Presidency as part of its infrastructure agenda.

Infrastructure is one of the least technologically transformed sectors, with crucial components like construction ranking second to last in digitisation. Technologically enabled infrastructure has the potential to change the cities we live in and, more importantly, help achieve broader goals around sustainability, social cohesion, and inclusive economic growth.
