Ripple Aerospace is a Norwegian aerospace company developing the oceanic Sea Serpent launch system. Leveraging Norway's long history of seafaring, shipbuilding, and maritime technology, we are developing a rocket class capable of being built, launched and recovered on the sea. Given the inefficiency of the space economy and launch service industry, our goal is to bring to market a mobile, reusable and scalable launch system capable of delivering medium, heavy and super heavy payloads into space. With industrial and commercialization partners from across Norway and abroad, the oceanic Sea Serpent launch system aims to be the preferred method of cargo transportation into space, providing the global economy a low-cost and accessible launch system.

Costile is an AI agent diagnostic proxy for teams building production AI workflows. As companies start using AI agents for support, research, coding, internal operations, and automation, they run into a new kind of infrastructure problem: the agent may technically work, but nobody knows when it is wasting money, looping, retrying badly, using the wrong model, or silently drifting outside expected cost behavior. Most teams can see their total AI bill after the fact. That is too late. What they need is operational visibility into which agent caused the spend, what pattern caused it, how severe it is, and what action should be taken. Costile sits between a company’s AI agents and model providers such as Anthropic. It routes requests through a proxy, logs only metadata such as model, tokens, cost, timestamps, agent ID, session ID, and stop reason, and turns that metadata into diagnostics. Prompts and responses are not stored. The product shows teams a command-center view of their AI agents: which agents are healthy, which are critical, what they spent in the selected time window, and what issue is driving the risk. When an agent is flagged, Costile gives a diagnostic report with the incident window, request log, baseline comparison, projected monthly exposure, and recommended fix. The problem we are solving is not just “AI is expensive.” The deeper problem is that AI agents are becoming autonomous software systems, but companies are still monitoring them like simple API calls. A bad agent loop, retry cascade, model-routing mistake, or runaway request can create cost, reliability, and governance risk before anyone notices. Costile helps engineering, product, and operations teams answer three questions quickly: What is going wrong? Which agent or session caused it? What should we do now? The initial product focuses on AI cost diagnostics, haywire detection, alerts, audit logs, API key management, and enterprise-ready reporting. Over time, Costile can become the observability and control layer for AI agent operations.

Vester159 is a full-service software and digital solutions studio built for SMVs, startups, and small-to-medium sized businesses that are ready to grow but need the right technical partner to get there. We exist because too many great businesses are being held back — not by a lack of ambition, but by a lack of execution. Generic agencies overpromise, off-the-shelf tools stop scaling, and disconnected systems quietly drain time and revenue. Vester159 was founded to close that gap: delivering enterprise-grade software at startup speed, with a relentless focus on stability, scalability, and tangible business outcomes. Our capabilities span the full digital stack. We build high-performance ecommerce storefronts using headless commerce and Shopify/WooCommerce architectures optimized for conversion. We design aesthetic, user-centric interfaces that reflect brand identity while maintaining peak performance across all devices. We develop native and cross-platform mobile applications leveraging the latest SDKs for fluid, responsive user experiences. And we eliminate the operational overhead that holds growing businesses back — through intelligent workflow automations and seamless API integrations that connect disparate systems, from custom middleware to complex ERP setups. What sets us apart is our obsession with outcomes over deliverables. We don't measure success by lines of code shipped — we measure it by the revenue unlocked, the hours saved, and the competitive edge gained. Every solution we build is designed to grow with the business, not against it. Vester159 is the technical partner that ambitious businesses deserve: accountable, precise, and built for the long game.

Nørd Studio is a Scandinavian branding and packaging agency based in Copenhagen (we work fully remote). We create human brands that communicate clearly and effectively without resorting to shouting. That last part matters. In a world of loud, trend-chasing designs, we deliberately do things differently. Minimal. Honest. Considered. This is not just an aesthetic choice; it's a philosophy that underpins everything we do, from our design process to our pricing strategy and how we treat the people we work with. We specialise in branding, including logos, visual systems, packaging, stationery and pitch decks. We write copy that sounds human, not like a press release. We also build websites from scratch — no templates or shortcuts, just fast, SEO-ready sites. We're a small studio, and that's intentional. Every client works directly with the people doing the work. Every project receives our full attention. There are no account managers, no handoffs and no diluted output. We're not looking to grow quickly. We want to grow well, with the right people on the right projects.

Horaizon is an AI consulting and product company helping organisations turn the hype around artificial intelligence into measurable business outcomes.

At Horaizon, we bridge that gap by working alongside organisations as if they were our own. We design and implement AI systems that are cost-effective, secure, and directly aligned with their workflows, from reducing customer support costs by 10x to automating time-consuming financial processes.

GoZeek – Curiosity at its core GoZeek is a mission-driven startup using digital tools to spark children's natural curiosity and connect them with the cultural world around them. At the heart of GoZeek is a belief that curiosity is a powerful learning driver. Yet today, many children grow up disconnected from cultural experiences, especially those who don’t naturally find their way to museums, galleries, or libraries. We’re here to change that. GoZeek transforms cities and cultural spaces into playful discovery zones through simple, visual missions. Using our app, children explore their surroundings, solve small challenges, and see everyday places with new eyes – while building confidence and familiarity with cultural environments. For parents or grandparents, GoZeek is a tool to offer meaningful, cultural experiences that can be shared across generations. No need to be an expert – just be curious together. For museums, libraries, and cities, GoZeek provides a scalable and flexible way to reach a young audience, gather insights, and create new cultural access points. Because our solution is digital at its core, we’re uniquely positioned to generate insights across locations, users, and contexts. Whether a child explores a small town or a major museum, we can analyze behavior patterns, preferences, and engagement levels – offering valuable feedback to cultural institutions and urban planners alike. This cross-cutting perspective makes GoZeek a powerful tool not just for experiences, but for understanding them. We're building something unique: a digital product that supports analog discovery, designed to grow across locations, languages, and institutions. If you're passionate about children’s learning, cultural access, and the power of good digital design – GoZeek might be your next big adventure. Join us and help curiosity lead the way.

The problem we address is the growing struggle parents face in managing their children's digital well-being. Kids today are exposed to excessive screen time, social media pressures, and online risks, yet most existing parental controls focus on restrictions rather than guiding healthy digital habits. Why this problem is pressing: Mental Health Risks: Increased screen time and unmonitored online activity contribute to anxiety, depression, and sleep issues in children. Ineffective Tools: Most parental controls rely on blocking and monitoring, leading to conflicts and workarounds rather than fostering responsible digital use. Parental Overwhelm: Parents lack the time and knowledge to constantly monitor and guide their child’s digital habits effectively.
