The company goes against its competitors\u2019 techniques of AI needing large machines, whereby with their new technology AI only needs a smartphone. Artenal is also testing the fastest autonomous harvesting robot, designed for farmers with an orchard size of 5\u2013120 acres. Their machines will replace over 10 workers each while starting at a mere CAD 17,000. Artenal&#8217;s mission has always been to be a product-focused company, working with farmers to adapt to their custom needs, so they get the best out of the product.

Operating in the East Vancouver community of Strathcona, they have created partnerships with multiple craft breweries, rescuing their spent grain into an innovative shelf-stable product called Upcycled Barley Flour. Susgrainable&#8217;s core products are delicious easy-to-make baking mixes that are gaining rapid popularity in the BC marketplace for both their environmental and health benefits. Susgrainable products can be found both online and increasingly in retailers throughout the Lower Mainland. Upcycled Barley Flour, Susgrainable&#8217;s signature ingredient, is made by dehydrating and milling spent grain, a by-product from beer production. The result is a flour high in plant-based protein and fibre while also being very low in sugar.<\/span><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div class=\"SplitItem-sc-__sc-3xe4fi-1 gkjeRC\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>HQ: Vancouver, British Columbia<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b4ba960 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"b4ba960\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-df8d76a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"df8d76a\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-05d0b0d\" data-id=\"05d0b0d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5405611 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"5405611\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-362018c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"362018c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.getuvx.com\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/UVX-logo-300x300.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-85794\" alt=\"UVX logo\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/UVX-logo-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/UVX-logo-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/UVX-logo-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/UVX-logo-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/UVX-logo-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/UVX-logo.png 2048w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/UVX-logo-65x65.png 65w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/UVX-logo-239x239.png 239w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d8cb137\" data-id=\"d8cb137\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b2329ab elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b2329ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"answer__Wrapper-sc-1k75oj5-1 iRgRIs\"><div class=\"Split-sc-__sc-3xe4fi-0 answer__BlockSplit-sc-1k75oj5-4 kOFSe\"><div class=\"SplitItem-sc-__sc-3xe4fi-1 gkjeRC\"><div class=\"answer__Wrapper-sc-1k75oj5-1 iRgRIs\"><div class=\"Split-sc-__sc-3xe4fi-0 answer__BlockSplit-sc-1k75oj5-4 kOFSe\"><h3 class=\"SplitItem-sc-__sc-3xe4fi-1 gkjeRC\"><span class=\"Text-sc-__sc-1h7ebrz-0 text-value__ValueText-di8e7l-0 hDCWMV fs-block\" style=\"color: #000000;\" data-qa=\"response-answer\">UVX<\/span><\/h3><div class=\"SplitItem-sc-__sc-3xe4fi-1 gkjeRC\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getuvx.com\/\">UVX<\/a> has built a smart ceiling device that reduces infections in indoor spaces using human-safe UV light disinfection, starting with senior homes.

WeBookCare has a distinct appeal over traditionally favoured home care agencies because families often end up saving money because they do not have to pay an agency mark-up fee on top of caregiver wages, and the caregiver still earns more. With the advent of online bookings, WeBookeCare helps care seekers to find local, trusted care the way they like it. Detailed profiles, reviews, Screening Canada background checks, Stripe online payments, and direct communication with the caregiver even if the care seeker is miles away are just a few benefits they offer so families have peace of mind in choosing the best care available. WeBookCare received seed funding from the Launch Online Grant Program, which was made possible through funding from the Province of British Columbia.
