Twigital is a decentralized application (dApp) that enables users to create tokenized digital twins of physical objects. These digital twins are represented as 3D objects, which can be minted as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the Hedera network. The platform allows users to memorialize objects in the Web3 space.
The Twigital mobile application is available on iOS where it uses photogrammetry to capture real-world objects. Users can generate 3D models of objects from photographs. The app guides users through this process with detailed instructions and, once created, these 3D models can be minted as NFTs.
A key feature of Twigital is its integration with the Hedera network. Users connect their Hedera wallets to manage digital assets. This enables easy valuation, trading, and viewing of NFT details. The assets created are content-addressed using interplanetary file system(IPFS), providing unique identification for each digital twin. These unique twins can then be linked to minted NFTs. Twigital covers the transaction fees for creating these NFTs, which are factored into the cost of using the service.

ValueNature is a South Africa-based organization working to create a new class of nature-based commodity credits. The company's mission is to accelerate the recognition of nature's value by creating a transparent and efficient market for biodiversity and natural carbon credits.
ValueNature's core service is the facilitation of nature-based investment projects. They are actively developing projects across the Global South that are designed to generate both biodiversity and carbon credits. The company's methodology involves using a combination of on-the-ground sensor technologies and remote sensing data to measure and verify the positive impacts of these projects on local ecosystems. The goal is to create a robust and evidence-based system for quantifying and valuing nature, with a commitment to ensuring that 80% of the revenue from the sale of credits goes back to the local custodians of the land.
ValueNature is building its platform on the Hedera Guardian, an open-source toolset for creating and managing digital environmental assets. This allows for the tokenization of their biodiversity and carbon credits, creating a transparent and auditable record of their entire lifecycle.
