This innovative transfersomal gel can deliver a high amount of Asiatic acid found in Centella Asiatica into the simulated skin membrane after 8 hours of application. Clinical studies found that the asiatic acid-entrapped transfersomal gel helps reduce the amount of melanin pigment, indicating its efficacy in reducing abnormal skin discoloration, as well as increasing elasticity in scarred areas. This is an innovative alternative for scar treatment.

Asiatic Acid-Entrapped Transfersomal Gel for Topical Treatment of Scars received the gold medal at ITEX2024 and the Special Prize for the best international invention from Korea Invention Promotion Association. The innovation is the work of Asst. Prof. Dr. Romchat Chutoprapat from the Department of Pharmaceutics and Industrial Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Science, Chulalongkorn University, and was sponsored by Club Chula Spin-off.

The Innovative of Cocoa Value Chain Management utilizes the CSA (Community Support Agriculture) business model, which is a participatory membership market system where consumers can directly communicate their quality and quantity needs to producers through a fair-pricing forward market mechanism. This is achieved through a network of stakeholders throughout the cocoa value chain whose mission is to develop innovations for grading fresh cocoa pods and cocoa beans, offer quality inspection services, connect suitable markets for cocoa produce and cocoa products, as well as provide information and knowledge about cocoa to farmers, entrepreneurs and those interested along the cocoa value chain.

The Innovative of Cocoa Value Chain Management was awarded the gold medal at ITEX2024. The innovation is the work of Asst. Prof. Dr. Tansiphorn Na Nan from School of Agricultural Resources, Chulalongkorn University and is sponsored by CU Social Innovation Hub.
