Aavuus

Aavuus is a space-tech startup building a global network of ground-based laser stations to detect and track space debris with unmatched precision. Our mission is to ensure the safety and sustainability of Earth’s orbit by providing satellite operators, Space Situational Awareness (SSA) companies, and defense organizations with accurate, timely, and affordable debris tracking data. Space has become crowded. Over 10,000 active satellites and more than hundred million debris objects currently orbit Earth, and the number of satellites is expected to grow tenfold by 2030. Even a fragment as small as one centimeter can destroy a satellite upon impact. Yet, current tracking systems are struggling to keep pace. This gap threatens not only the safety of critical assets in orbit but also the future of the global space economy, which depends on the long-term sustainability of orbital operations.

Ventura Brands

Ventura Brands Oy is a Finnish ecommerce company founded in 2019. We’ve built several global consumer brands, served over 200,000 customers worldwide, and sell our products on Amazon and our own Shopify store (DTC). Right now, we’re focused on scaling our fastest-growing brand, Silvery®, in the U.S. market. Silvery is a premium bedding brand using patent-pending silver-infused technology that helps hot sleepers stay cool, clean, and comfortable. The brand is growing rapidly and gaining international attention. In 2025, we are on track to double our revenue compared to last year, and we’re now strengthening our team to support this growth.

Lyfta

Lyfta is building the operating system for strength training. Today, millions of people go to the gym without a clear plan, without tracking properly, and without understanding whether they’re actually progressing. Most tools in the space optimize for engagement, not outcomes. We think that’s the wrong approach. Strength training is one of the highest-leverage activities for long-term health, but only if it’s structured, consistent, and measurable. That’s what we’re building, a system that helps people train with clarity, track real progress, and improve over time. Lyfta is already used by over a million people globally, with strong growth month over month. We’re still early, but the ambition is clear: build the product people rely on to get stronger, not just another app they use occasionally.

Agronod

We are an agtech startup driven by a clear mission: to strengthen Swedish agriculture and food production through sharing of agricultural data. Agriculture is currently undergoing a digital revolution, characterized by the use of sensors, connected devices, and data monitoring software. This advancement introduces complex challenges in terms of data privacy, security, and transparency. Data is collected in large amounts, but is locked in silos of individual products and systems. To fully leverage the benefits of this digitalization, creating a platform for effective data sharing is essential. By establishing a robust and secure infrastructure, we enable large-scale data sharing across the agricultural value chain – without compromising privacy or security. Our platform allows stakeholders, from farmers to researchers as well as the industry, to share and access data. We provide Swedish farmers with full control over their data, while also enabling the development of new applications based on data from the platform. A prime example is our climate calculation application, Agrosfär, which simplifies how to measure and report the agricultural sector's carbon footprint. We are a small but dynamic team, well-versed in data science, IT architecture, design, and UX, and in close collaboration with agricultural experts, researchers and farmers. We are here for the long run, backed by the ownership of Lantmännen, LRF -The Swedish Federation of Farmers, Hushållningssällskapet, Växa, HKScan Sweden, and Arla Sweden. The platform, as well as the climate calculation tool Agrosfär, is developed with support from the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development.
