Hands on Data is an open innovation initiative that creates matchmaking opportunities between major corporations in the Ruhr area and global startups. From a pool of over 100 applications of start-ups from 15 countries, NILG.AI was chosen to work on 2 out of 6 challenges (Iqony – formely STEAG GmbH – and Vonovia). You can find a list of all the challenges on the Hands on Data website. As a result of this, on the 26th of January, we were present in the kick-off event at the HOD Kick-off event at the Bryck Tower in Essen, Germany.
Combustion optimization / Iqony
Iqony (formerly STEAG GmbH) is an energy solutions provider – synonymous with safe and efficient power generation within Germany and abroad for more than 80 years.
Driven by efficiency improvement and emissions reduction, we are going to collaborate with Iqony to use machine learning and image processing of camera-captured combustion processes to optimize their operations.

Image Insights / Vonovia
Vonovia, Europe’s leading private residential real estate company, currently owns around 550.000 residential units. You might remember Vonovia from the previous challenge we worked on with them – Flat Finder.
Driven by tenant satisfaction and as a modern service provider, Vonovia will use AI to recognize, categorize, and describe damaged appliances and fixtures from pictures taken by tenants. The idea is to extract key information that enables the customer service team to find a suitable remedy with minimum delay.

We look forward to working with Vonovia and Iqony for the next three months on this intensive collaboration to showcase our results!
