DEFINE Batch No. 3 have been selected
DEFINE Accelerator Batch 3 will kick off in August 2025. You can get to know the selected teams through this article.
Alvidiotech
Alvidiotech is a Finnish deep tech company developing Kimberlite, a plug-and-play AI vision solution for non-digital environments like second-hand stores, recycling centers, and logistics. Kimberlite identifies items, generates pricing, and creates digital inventory—without apps or IT integration. Designed for simplicity and scalability, it also has strong dual-use potential for defense, including mobile logistics, asset tracking, and perimeter monitoring. Supported by a defense-industry advisor and part of VTT’s Dual-Use Accelerator, Alvidiotech is joining the DefInE Accelerator to refine its strategy, engage with end users, and explore real-world deployments in both public safety and military contexts.
