【#USTentrepreneur】Congratulations! HKUST start-up team FlashGreen has just received the “Silver Award” in the Special Edition 2022 Inventions Geneva Evaluation Days – Virtual Event.
Flash Green is a social enterprise that focuses on recycling residual stock of short-dated best-before date products and redistributing them to people from different subgroups through vending machines and the companion mobile app. Flash Green fosters an intelligent and sustainable campus and office culture dedicated to reducing unnecessary food waste by debunking the misconception of best-before date and promoting responsible consumption behaviours by integrating technology and sustainability. New features like product reservation, automatic price adjusting, and auto-discount functions are added to the traditional retail model of vending machines through IoT and real-time telemetry technologies.
In the early stage of the business development, FlashGreen placed its vending machine prototype in theBASE as a pilot. The team was also supported by the Dream Builder Incubation Program and the HKUST GBA Youth Entrepreneurship Fund Program. They are now the mentee of the mentorHUB Program.
