Tell us your challenge

Mining, water, sugar-energy, agro and critical infrastructure: bring the operational problem, we bring the technology route and the partners to deliver it.

For technology companies

Expand into new markets

Proven technology looking for industrial customers in Brazil and Latin America? We validate it, pilot it where there is a fit and help open the door.

For investors & partners

Back vetted ventures

Access deal flow screened by our scientists and engineers, with the readiness level stated and the risk priced before capital is committed.

Who we are

An international technology integration and venture development group connecting industrial challenges with advanced technologies, strategic capital and global markets.

For more than 25 years, Dr. Ronny Banker and the group’s engineers have evaluated, designed, built, piloted and operated water and environmental plants for mines, smelters and cities across Africa and the Americas.

That operational discipline now powers a portfolio of technology ventures, a network of Israeli universities and research institutes, and an engagement model that carries a technology from its first test to full-scale deployment.
