Connecting Grounds is a food start-up based in Aarhus that up-cycles spent coffee grounds (a.k.a. coffee waste) into a food ingredient for B2B snack and confectionary companies and restaurants. Why do we do it? 1. Environment Spent coffee grounds are often treated as waste. Think about how many cups of coffee you or the people around you drink per day. All the coffee waste from drinking coffee adds to the Greenhouse Gas Emissions. 2. Nutritional Value When we brew our cup of coffee, we are only taking advantage of 1% of coffee's nutrients. 99% of these nutrients stay in the spent coffee grounds. These nutrients include caffeine, dietary fibre, proteins and valuable minerals. What we do is change the narrative behind hidden food waste by starting with coffee by-products. By up-cycling such a product, we evert emissions, take advantage of our resources and raise awareness on the importance of up-cycling. Rethinking food is what we do, and we will not stop with coffee by-products. We will continue to search for resources/ingredients that have the potential of being reintroduced in the food stream, again.

Many professions in Finland are regulated and those who have been qualified abroad for a profession that is regulated in Finland will need to apply to the relevant authority for a decision on whether or not they are also qualified for the same profession in Finland. Several international professionals living in Finland are either unemployed, underemployed, or working outside the scope of their expertise. This has a negative impact on Finland’s economy as these professionals are unable to use their skills to contribute to the Finnish society. Consequently, the Finnish economy is unable to benefit symbiotically from international talent already living in Finland. Through a diverse range of programs and services, we assist international professionals qualified for a profession abroad to overcome obstacles hindering them from utilizing their skills in Finland. We provide customised support as well as mentorship and networking opportunities. We also offer one-on-one guidance as they take huge career steps toward transitioning into the Finnish workforce and advancing their skillset to contribute to the society they now call home.

In this way we ensure that all necessary skills are in place at the needed timepoint and at the right level to secure the optimal development path from academia to a commercially viable company.

Our goal is to provide great wines while saving the environment. By switching to cans over the glass you are making a decision to join us in making a dramatic difference for the planet. Ditch the antiquated bottle and reach for something unique. Something adorned with art that moves us to think and revel in life. Aluminium is an incredible wine container. It's 28x more efficient to recycle than bottles and 3/4 of all aluminium ever mined is still in use today! By joining the switch from bottles to cans you’re helping us cut 79% of the CO2 emissions on packaging. If that’s not exciting enough, consider that cans are twenty times lighter, twice as efficient to transport, and don't break as easily.

Pressurebox produces reusable Tennis & Padel Ball pressurizers, that restores and maintains the pressure in tennis & padel balls through diffusion. The Problem After only one hour of play, 20% of the pressure in tennis & padel balls disappears - starting when you open the can the balls are bought in. Because of this, hobby players are forced to buy new balls about every 2 times they play. At a higher level, balls are changed multiple times in a single match. This is bad for the wallet, the environment, and your game. The Solution Our innovative, reusable tennis & padel ball tubes automatically stores balls under the correct pressure after every single match, enabling players to play with better balls for many times longer until you decide to replace them. It improves the game, making it more affordable, and reduces plastic & rubber waste from tennis & padel balls. This is actually a big deal, since 350 million tennis balls containing a toxic cocktail of micro plastics are wasted every year, with only 2 % being recycled. The rest of the toxic waste ends up in places such as landfills, or in our oceans. The balls that ends up in nature stays there for 400 years before they break down. This makes tennis and padel two of the dirtiest (and most expensive) sports! Since the greenest ball is the ball that you dont throw away, our solution is a step towards making tennis & padel greener sports in accordance with UN goals 12, 13, 14 & 15. We hope you will join us on this mission!
