<< STARTUP STORY >> The ever-increasing demand for electricity, coupled with the rise of variable renewable energy sources like solar and wind, is a challenge for power grid stability. To maintain a constant flow of electricity is crucial. The amount of electricity generated needs to match the amount being used at any given time. If the grid is imbalanced, we can get voltage fluctuations or even blackouts. Emulate has a solution to this problem. #energy #sustainability #transition #innovation #startup Cathrin Jung Sonny Strömberg Shwan Lamei

Last week, Dan Lundstrom, Director of IT, Axis Communications, shared their story about a severe cyber-attack they were the victims of a while back. #cybersecurity #innovation Sweden Secure Tech Hub Thank you for sharing Dan Lundstrom! A few key takeaways:

<<START UP STORY >> Bullet Traps for Sustainable Shooting Training Whether you are a soldier practicing marksmanship in the military or a civilian shooter, you leave bullet remnants. Usually, these remnants are not properly handled. It's an environmental problem. –There are no good answers on how to comply with existing regulations, says Elias. Authorities have turned a blind eye for a long time. The military can afford solutions, but most civilian ranges only have protective barriers, which are inflexible. Elias Mibesjö and his team have created a bullet trap to catch bullet remnants smartly and simply. Read more: #militarytraining #innovation #startup #defense #sustainability Elias Mibesjö Flexotrap

This week we concluded the cyber security training offered by Link��ping University and Ideon Science Park. The training targeted small and medium-sized companies with growth ambitions and where digital technologies are a central part of the company's business model. The training aimed to increase understanding of cybersecurity and help participants develop a stronger security culture within their respective organizations.  ‘The training, which included self-study, workshops, and instructor-led sessions, covered cybersecurity in a societal context (a historical context, new threats, and trends, societal vulnerabilities, countermeasures, and legal aspects). It also covered risk management and cybersecurity culture including, risk awareness, people-focused cybersecurity, and incident management. Freddy Andersson from Region Skåne participated. 5% of his job includes information security coordination. This means that he needs to stay on top of some things related to cyber security: ‘I felt I needed a training in cybersecurity. I am not a developer, but originally a hospital chemist.’ Freddy finds the part about risk analysis and management most rewarding: “I have understood the value of analyzing what resources and data are important and worth protecting. It is a new way of thinking for me.” When he comes back to work, risk analysis is in the plan. Daniela Grassi from AdvanSci, whose company used to be part of the Ideon Incubation Program BUILD, got many new aha’s, she says: “I have gained a general understanding of what needs to be done to increase security. I also realized that it is important with cybersecurity…” She also says she finds it more difficult than she thought: “It opened my eyes; there are so many things I don’t know. But now I know that”. When she gets back to the office, she plans to start with a simple cyber security policy: “It is better to start somewhere and then keep building”. Nina Valkama sits at the same table. She works as an Executive Assistant and needs to become more cyber-aware as she often handles IT concerning suppliers. “This training was definitely on the right level for me. I needed more meat on the bones when it comes to cybersecurity.” #cybersecurity #digitalage #resilience #swedensecuretechhub
