Bytes.io is 1 of the projects that got a grant by the ecosystem fund. Their application is a platform for last mile, distributed, Internet access trading.
They started off on bitcoin in 2016, but now have IT stacks for ethereum and iota. I would think IOTA's flash channels are perfect for this, but unsure what they are using now. What's interesting is that they look forward to partner with the Aachen lab. Paying for streaming data and the aachen machine audit trail use cases overlap a lot, so there must be some synergies to capture there.
Since they dont get many views yet I thought it might be useful to post a short summary of stuff I could find:

Note the video demo in the last update showing iota address.
Their first? hackathon pitch in 2016:

Interesting piece about them holding bitcoins as initial capital:
I'd think if they get the app out soon you could then also build (the perfect brainstorm?) business models on top of it. Users needing to buy iota is a hassle still but then again its a great adoption motivator. Also wonder if integration is possible with the trinity app.
O yeah they mention they will be at the London IOTA meetup 4th of December:https://www.meetup.com/nl-NL/Official-IOTA-London/events/256470459/
