Bridging Innovation:

Our Collaborations with Leading Academic Institutions

At Valbilon, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of what's possible in software development. Our collaborations with world-renowned educational institutions like ETH Zurich and HES (Haute École Spécialisée) enable us to integrate cutting-edge research with practical applications.

These partnerships reflect our dedication to excellence and our mission to deliver innovative solutions by combining industry expertise with academic brilliance.

ETH Zurich

ETH Zurich, a global leader in technology and natural sciences, has been instrumental in advancing our AI-driven initiatives. Through our partnership with the Chair of Strategic Management and Innovation, we are tackling complex challenges in risk management and financial education.

Collaborative Projects:

  • AI-Powered Risk Assessment Platform:
    We are developing an innovative platform that leverages Artificial Intelligence to help businesses better understand and manage risks associated with their B2B customers and suppliers. By addressing information asymmetry, the platform provides standardized risk metrics incorporating factors like economic climate, political stability, regulatory quality, and corruption control. This enables companies to make informed decisions, compare potential partners objectively, and mitigate risks effectively.

  • Educational Game on Financial Crises:
    Together, we are creating an educational game that immerses users in virtual trading environments inspired by the financial bubble crises of the past two decades. Utilizing AI and large language models (LLMs), the game generates tailored content and scenarios adapted to each user's needs and risk preferences. This gamified approach enhances financial literacy by allowing users to experience the complexities of trading and risk management in an engaging way.

Impact on Our Services:
These collaborations have significantly enhanced our capabilities in AI/ML and Risk Management & Analysis services. By integrating advanced AI strategies and methodologies developed with ETH Zurich, we are able to offer scalable, efficient, and user-centric solutions that address real-world business challenges and educational needs.

HES-SO Valais

Our collaboration with HES has been pivotal in developing practical solutions that bridge technology and public education, particularly in the areas of earthquake preparedness and interactive learning.

Collaborative Projects:

  • CPPS Reservation and Information Platform:
    We developed a comprehensive web platform for the Centre Pédagogique Prévention Séismes (CPPS) to manage reservations and bookings while serving as an information hub for earthquake preparedness. This platform supports CPPS's mission to educate the public on earthquake occurrences and safety measures by providing accessible resources and streamlined booking processes for educational programs.

  • "Escape with Wallis" Educational Minigame:
    In partnership with HES, we created "Escape with Wallis," a digital companion and minigame set up inside the CPPS. This immersive game blends learning with fun, allowing users to navigate virtual environments, solve puzzles, and learn about earthquake preparedness. By guiding players through interactive storytelling and rewarding engagement, the game enhances the educational experience and fosters a deeper understanding of earthquake safety.

Impact on Our Services:
The collaboration has enriched our expertise in AR/VR and game development, enabling us to deliver engaging, user-centric solutions that combine education and entertainment. Insights gained from working with HES have allowed us to improve our methodologies in creating interactive experiences, which we have integrated into our AR/VR/Game Development and Cloud Architecture services.

Why These Partnerships Matter?

By working closely with esteemed institutions like ETH Zurich and HES, we ensure that our solutions are not only grounded in the latest academic research but are also tested against real-world scenarios. These collaborations allow us to:

  • Access to cutting-edge research helps us incorporate the latest advancements into our services.

  • Collaborative environments foster creativity and lead to the development of unique solutions.

  • Academic partnerships ensure our methodologies are robust, scalable, and scientifically validated.
