In the emerging sector of the Blue Economy, where innovation aims at the sustainable use of marine and fishing resources, is Droptech Solutions, a startup promoted by Eduardo, Christofer and Alejandro.
Christofer, with his university education and passion for technological solutions, partnered with Alejandro, a developer attentive to market opportunities. Together with Eduardo, current CEO of the company, they founded Droptech Solutions with the aim of solving the problem of excessive water consumption in hotels using IoT technology.
Droptech Solutions focuses on reducing excessive water consumption in the hospitality industry by integrating IoT technology into monitoring devices.
This approach not only optimizes resource consumption but also generates significant savings for hotels by reducing bills and fines for excessive consumption, savings on which the project's business model is based.
At the same time, guests of hotels that manage their water resources efficiently perceive the space as more sustainable, creating incentives that align with economic and environmental sustainability.
The technology integrated into the device developed by Droptech Solutions is essential to support the solution. It allows you to perform automated calculations, integrate additional services and develop comprehensive energy and water resources management software.
This includes remote control capabilities that are vital to the operational efficiency and scalability of the service provided.
Blue Economy
Although Droptech Solutions' primary focus is freshwater management, its contribution to marine sustainability lies in overall reduction of resource consumption and energy efficiency results.
This is especially relevant in areas like the Spanish archipelago, which rely heavily on energy-intensive desalination and water treatment plants.
Additionally, Droptech Solutions integrates equivalent carbon emissions metrics with water resource savings. This tool allows you to tangibly quantify and visualize the positive environmental impact of your services, providing concrete data that supports your commitment to sustainable development.
Sustainability Education and Awareness: Droptech Solutions is currently establishing a social media presence and building a strong fan base.
Through these platforms, they plan to educate the public about the importance of sustainable resource management, while also providing audit services that comply with ISO standards and ensure effective resource management.
The startup in Incubazul
Since joining the Incubazul accelerator, Droptech Solutions has made significant progress in the management and restructuring of its operations.
This process allows the team to optimize its functions and services, better preparing for future challenges and growth opportunities.
According to the company's CEO, “Incubazul was instrumental in aligning the original vision of Droptech Solutions with the realities of the market. He provides technical and strategic support, helping the team navigate the ups and downs typical of startups and strengthen the foundation for sustainable growth.”
“I would undoubtedly recommend the Cádiz Free Zone initiative to other blue economy startups. “The entrepreneurial environment and support received have been instrumental in Droptech Solutions’ progress, providing significant momentum to achieve ambitious business and technology goals.”
Next steps
As one of its latest milestones, Droptech Solutions has been selected to participate in the European Innovation Academy that this year 2024 takes place in Porto after winning the startup ideas competition of the University of Seville.
This three-week program consisting of an international startup and innovation bootcamp in the Portuguese city is a unique opportunity to accelerate Droptech Solutions' technological development and explore new international market opportunities.
In the immediate future, Droptech Solutions seeks to establish strategic partnerships and turn clients into “testers”, official partners to fully develop and implement its services. This step is important to validate your solution and prepare it for the market.
