Amongst the finalists, many inspiring pitches were delivered, and particularly from ADN SKIS, WE GO GREENR which supports companies in their ecological transition, as well as MOONBIKES and their electric snowbikes. And for the first ever MET21 edition, hosted in the stunning resort of Courchevel, ADN SKIS and Camille Lambert (CEO) won the first place for their project aiming at launching fully recyclable skis. What a better way to reinvent the mountain of tomorrow than in a ski resort with recyclable skis !

Despite the 10 amazing projects presented to the jury and the winner being awarded to ADN SKIS, BeFC won over the jury's hearts for its disruptive technology and received au unplanned prize : the jury’s favourite or "Coup de coeur".

BeFC produces electricity using paper and enzymes: it is like a "paper battery". BeFC sustainable and innovative energy solution enables low-power electronics, which we also plan to eco design, and produce, in order to achieve the lowest impact for an electronic platform.
