YU.SH is a luxury-tech company pioneering smart high-heeled footwear with embedded electrostimulation insoles and AI-powered wellness features, handcrafted in Italy and designed to elevate both comfort and elegance.
YU.SH is the first luxury high-heel brand to integrate AI-powered electrostimulation technology directly into handcrafted footwear—turning discomfort into empowerment. What makes our innovation unique is the seamless fusion of Italian artisanal design with Dubai-engineered wellness tech. Unlike traditional high heels, which often cause pain and fatigue, YU.SH shoes actively support the wearer’s wellbeing through embedded smart insoles that stimulate circulation, reduce muscle strain, and monitor posture in real time. This creates a new category in the luxury industry: wearable elegance with therapeutic intelligence. Our competitive advantage lies in combining four elements no brand has unified before—Italian leatherwork, 3D-printed customization, NMES medical-grade technology, and AI app control—to address a long-ignored pain point for women who demand both performance and prestige. The impact? A shift from passive luxury to active wellbeing—empowering movement, health, and confidence without sacrificing style.

Trendful provides the product and pricing data infrastructure that powers accurate identification and condition-based pricing of secondhand luxury goods.
Trendful’s Catalog API is the first comprehensive infrastructure layer purpose-built for the luxury resale economy. While most tools are limited to specific verticals (like watches or sneakers) or offer unstructured product feeds, Trendful delivers a structured API designed to meet the complexities of resale across all luxury categories. Our innovation combines structured product identification with historical and real-time resale intelligence. Through a simple text or image search, businesses can access rich data—including condition-based pricing, sell-through rates, and price volatility—addressing the core challenge of identifying and valuing secondhand items that vary by model, condition, and release. What sets us apart: - Accurate product identification across complex variants using both image and text inputs - Condition-adjusted pricing based on real sold listings, not guesses or scraped listings - Resale-specific metrics like volatility and sell-through—critical for pricing, authentication, insurance, and lending While general AI tools or product data APIs (like ChatGPT or Google Shopping) surface rough estimates, they lack the structured resale intelligence, historical depth, and accuracy required at scale. Trendful integrates AI where useful (e.g., matching, enrichment), but is grounded in a proprietary dataset refined over years. Whether it’s brands benchmarking resale performance, retailers launching takeback programs, or wholesalers building pricing tools, Trendful is the single source of truth powering the future of circular commerce.

Next-Gen Craftsmanship: Fashion, Jewellery, and Design
As an internationally recognized watchmaking company, we have been pushing the boundaries of horological engineering for over 40 years, with award-winning creations protected by multiple patents that demonstrate our expertise in cutting-edge technologies
Innovative Mechanics: This extraordinary timepiece showcases three tourbillons, each mounted on a rotating plate and completing a full revolution every 60 seconds. The plate itself spins once every 10 minutes—six rotations per hour—thanks to a groundbreaking triple differential mechanism. This accelerated dual movement ensures unmatched precision and regularity. The three tourbillons are strategically arranged in an equilateral triangle, enhancing chronometric accuracy. What sets this movement apart is its remarkable ability to blend intricate mechanical complexity with sophisticated aesthetics, pushing the boundaries of traditional watchmaking. Symbolism of the Number 3: The number three plays a pivotal role in this design: three tourbillons, three inertia blocks, and a rotating plate that completes six rotations per hour—exactly twice the number of tourbillons. This powerful symbol represents the past, present, and future, echoing the measurement of time on Earth, the third planet in our solar system. Cosmic Material: The "Meteor Space View" model is sculpted from a rare Gibeon meteorite, discovered in 1836 in Great Namaqualand, Namibia. This cosmic material is a one-of-a-kind achievement in horology, combining beauty, strength, and energy. In essence, Antoine Preziuso's Tourbillon of Tourbillons in meteorite is a true work of art—an exquisite fusion of technical innovation, cosmic wonder, and profound symbolism, offering a singular experience to its owner.

It is about elegance, privacy, and brand control. Our patented, ultra-compact smart module integrates invisibly into any luxury frame — no compromise on aesthetics, no break in heritage.

Zammy.ai empowers brands to transform a single 3D asset into limitless, on-brand marketing videos, shifting content creation from manual 'production' to automated 'generation'. Our platform leverages your 3D products as the definitive ground truth, ensuring perfectly consistent and high-fidelity video content is created at scale.
While the digital transformation has led brands to adopt 3D for product virtualization and static imagery, video production has remained a major hurdle. Traditional AI video tools, which rely on 2D images or text prompts, often fail to maintain product consistency, leading to distorted shapes and inaccurate details that can damage brand integrity. Zammy.ai was built to solve this core problem by pioneering a "3D-to-Video" workflow

We actively measure and minimize the environmental footprint of our digital solutions, because true impact means holding ourselves to the same standards we promote."
Carnault is the first responsible, modular, and luxury-designed smoke-free alternative, made in Switzerland and conceived with the principles of responsible living, natural materials, and the art of refined living, for those who seek a more sustainable and lasting alternative to disposable culture.
Carnault’s innovation is defined by its precision-engineered modularity, material integrity, and capacity for personalisation, setting a new technical and experiential benchmark in the smoke-free category. Carnault is the first smoke-free product to feature a fully embedded printed circuit board (PCB) in a consumer-facing application, an innovation that earned the PCB Design Award in 2022 and resulted in the granting of five patents in 2024. This proprietary architecture enables users to independently replace or upgrade both the battery and control unit, empowering long-term ownership, reducing replacement costs, and significantly extending product lifespan through modular serviceability. Our devices are constructed using precision-engineered interference fits, meaning all components are assembled without adhesives. This allows for easy disassembly, minimal waste, and a significantly more sustainable maintenance process, a marked departure from the glued-shut, throwaway construction typical in the category. Recognising the social and ritual value of smoking, Carnault is also the first smoke-free device to feature dual charging capability, allowing two devices to be used interchangeably or shared, without disruption. This reinforces Carnault’s focus on human-centred design, preserving the emotional and interpersonal moments that make smoking habitual for many. Materials are equally deliberate. All housing elements are made from durable, natural materials, including vegetable-tanned Italian leather and hand-finished hardwoods, selected for their tactile warmth, repairability, and aesthetic longevity. The result is a device that is restorable, resilient, and deeply personal. At the highest level of our offering, Carnault also offers bespoke personalisation. Clients may commission limited-edition finishes using premium materials such as marble, lacquered hardwood, or exotic leathers, and customise their devices with gold-leaf monograms, engraving, or embossing, allowing for a deeply personal connection to an object designed to accompany them over time. Carnault’s competitive advantage lies in this fusion of high-performance modular engineering, sustainable design logic, and personal expression, delivered within a product category that, until now, has offered neither.
