10. 11. As the creator of streamlined, lightweight, easily incorporated sound systems, Fibona Acoustics has made itself a front-runner in modern acoustic technology perfect for convenience without sacrificing quality. Nominally, its hard work and outstanding achievements have propelled it into the spotlight of its industry, continuously gaining traction for how well-suited its sound systems are for such a wide variety of different uses, for example electrical cars, for which it has designed full 15-unit audio speaker sets weighing less than 6kg including a large 10 inch subwoofer. Excited about what it has achieved and what it plans to achieve in the future, Fibona Acoustics makes full use of its impeccable team and incredible powers of innovation to continue pushing the limits of what is possible in lightweight, spatially conservative technologies. Best Technology Development Company - Capital Region of Denmark Fibona Acoustics is a technology development and sourcing company based in Copenhagen, Denmark, which specializes in electro-acoustics and loudspeaker systems. Fibona Acoustics offers a solution for those who have space or weight constraints but still want HiFi sound. Its innovative flat loudspeakers require less materials, are very lightweight, and thereby minimize freight impacts on the environment compared to other technologies. This means reduction of the audio industry's carbon footprint without compromising the sound quality and durability of the membranes. Fibona Acoustics has earned a Scandinavian Business Award for its endto-end electro acoustic solutions. For people who don’t want to compromise on sound quality despite various constraints, Fibona Acoustics makes itself an exemplary solution. Jul22546 Thus, it has recently been bringing its designs to brands and manufacturers all over the world, and it is pleased to announce that the interest it has received in the innovative technologies it boasts has been hugely positive, allowing it to confidently forecast a bright future ahead and hit the ground running. The founder, Milad Kahfizadeh, is especially proud of this as the culmination of years of work in the acoustic industry. Having earned an electro-acoustics Master of Science from the Technical University of Denmark and holding multiple international patents covering the EMCT and other transducer technologies, this reputation has been cultivated from the buzz surrounding his electro-acoustic and transducer design, manufacturing its own transducers and complete systems in-house. Having been prototyped across six different sizes and models, its proof of concept showed the sheer level of commitment to innovation that has followed it from the very beginning. Indeed, even today, with its products being clamoured for, Fibona Acoustics is not ready to rest on its laurels, always hoping to improve itself and make the EMCT truly scalable for all manner of different and highly specific projects. Most applications, it understands, are different – much like the customers themselves – and thus will require different sizing and dimensional data, which it can provide on a consultancy basis, as well as assisting in the identification and auditing of a sustainable facility in order to convert soft tools to hard, high-volume tools. For every new version of its transducer being a new part, every bespoke sound Best Technology Development Company - Capital Region of Denmark system and transducer it delivers must be individually validated. This shows the company’s dedication to quality checking and sense checking, ensuring that every product leaving its workshop only does so when the product is at its best, basing many of these validations on simulation in the case of most products – especially larger ones – where smaller ones are tested by prototype and physical tests. Indeed, it has therefore been able to attract the kind of customers who are in tune with its own commitment to ingenuity in sound. Attracting those with the capability to manufacture their own transducers and complete systems, it aids its clients in vetting the best place possible, influencing a new movement in acoustic technology that makes sound an intensely personal and specific endeavour. Fundamentally, by taking its clients on these journeys to find their ‘best sound experience’, it makes itself a deeply unique and impeccably realised part of their lives, proud to be something that the clients are happy to pass on the word about their referrals and recommendations. Fibona Acoustics is recognized as a trusted partner, able to operate alone, it is the entire value chain, from design, simulation, prototyping, manufacture sourcing and solution delivery. Indeed, by investing in clean energy, environmental impact testing, and social responsibility, the company has been able to put its money where its mouth is in terms of thinking outside of the box. As it trains new employees, it makes it clear that it is not in the business of reproducing sound; it wishes, instead, to foster a new experience and to show its clients that the enjoyment of their sounds of choice can be an intensely personal and incredible experience when done right. In short, it hopes that once it’s shown its clients how sound should be, they won’t want to go back. Many clients do have this experience with Fibona Acoustics, after all. Allowing it to remain playful, idea-oriented, ecstatic in innovation, and able to learn from mistakes, it is excited that it is once again able to travel all over the world in order to showcase and demonstrate the technology that is slowly but surely making it a huge name in its industry, and a champion of bespoke listening. Fundamentally, having been working on and preparing for presentation of its compact and low weight car sound system, this electric car specific technology is enjoying its debut this year, and it is this – alongside many other incredible achievements – that has earned it the award we celebrate it for today. With experience as a senior transducer engineer for Peerless and DST, a partner and CTO for Avance International and Gamut International, a Director of Application Engineering for Tymphany Denmark, an Audio Project Manager for SB Acoustics, and many other positions, the founder has always displayed a huge level of commitment to his industry. Nominally, with such a deeply ingrained sound expert at the help, such a solid foundation of research as its bedrock, and a trajectory towards success as its future status, Fibona Acoustics is on a sure-fire track to greater success, and it encourages peers, partners, and clients alike to ‘watch this space’ as it moves forward. Company: Fibona Acoustics Contact: Milad Kahfizadeh Website: fibona-acoustics.com “If the cost for a packaged cigarette is €5.25, we found that consumers were happy to pay €6 if a pocket ashtray was included. This is now being pushed to the tobacco companies to provide smokers with a pocket ashtray.” In 2020, off the back of these findings, Alice had a large tobacco company get in touch as it wanted to test Nano-bin with its consumers. The company initially ordered 10,000 items and put them in 100 shops all over Sweden. The plan was to find out if the smokers wanted to use Nano-bin and the prediction was that the 10,000 units would take around a week, or possibly more, to sell out. Instead, Nano-bin sold out in a few hours prompting the company to place a further order for 40,000 units! Alice tells us, “We are now talking to the next big tobacco company who is ordering 100,000 a week. This is just for the Nordic markets.” Currently, Nano-bin is available from retail shops, kiosks, petrol stations, pubs, and restaurants – in fact, anywhere that sells cigarettes usually has Nano-bin on its shelves alongside. Nano-bin recently gained recognition in the Scandinavian Enterprise Awards 2022 for its ingenuity and innovation, being bestowed with the title of Best Eco-Friendly Ashtray Company 2022. This award is testament to the dedication and hard work of Alice and the talented team who helped to bring Nano-bin into fruition. Right now, it seems that Nano-bin has conquered Europe, but it is certainly on the cards for it to take the world by storm and Alice is already in talks with several companies who want to start stocking the item in their own countries. “We had a breakthrough in the US market,” she tells us. “A sales and distribution company has contacted us and wants to put Nanobin on the US market. It is one of the big retail companies that is asking for the product all over the continent. We have, after careful consideration, found a production company that can produce the quantities that are requested. The next step is to seek an investor who can help us with cash flow. It is an exciting step forward!” Founded by serial entrepreneur, Alice Hertz Dahl found a way to combine her passion for the environment and all things ecofriendly with her vast experience as a manager for European Food companies – such as Scan, Starbucks and W&A – and her gift for accurately evaluation and understanding consumer needs. It all began when Alice, a farmer’s daughter, was a new resident in Stockholm. Late one night, whilst waiting for the bus, she began to count how many cigarette butts she could see littering the streets and was surprised when she reached a staggeringly high number. Alice pondered that surely there must be a better way to dispose of our cigarette butts and keep the streets cleaner – and Nano-bin was born! “Roughly 540,000,000 cigarette butts are thrown on the ground per hour around the world,” exclaims Alice. “If placed in a row, it would take us around the equator in just three hours. Something needed to happen!” The Berlin-based start-up is now the third company that Alice has founded and, as a report from the EU shows that in Europe alone we spend £13 billion a year to clean up cigarette butts, meaning every EU citizen pays €20 per year towards this, it could not have come soon enough. ith Nano-bin, smokers now have a convenient way to dispose of their cigarette butts with this mobile non-flammable, airtight ashtray, which empowers smokers to both enjoy their vice and to care about the world around them. ith Nano-bin, smokers now have a convenient way to dispose of their cigarette butts with this mobile non-flammable, airtight ashtray, which empowers smokers to both enjoy their vice and to care about the world around them.
