Peppelini

Peppelini Studios is a newly started children's clothing company that aims to produce high-quality apparel in the most ethically and environmentally friendly way possible. We want our brand to be synonyms with timeless design. We want to set a new standard when it comes to sustainability, quality, and the way parents consume children’s clothing. We are looking for people who feel as strongly as we do about changing the status quo. We know from our research that more parents want their children to own long-lasting, high-quality clothes with a cool and fun design. 
 Our first collection will consist of 3600 pieces and will be ready in February. Even though our first collection is relatively small, our goal is to establish Peppelini as the best slow fashion brand out there within a few years. 
 How we aim to become more sustainable: Peppelini aims never to have sales. We will produce clothes in our tempo and make sure we have zero waste. We also want to buy back all the clothes from our customers. When designing our clothes, we have in mind that at least four children should be able to wear the clothes before we need to recycle them. 
 Each organization and company involved in every step of the production process must live up to our expectations. Meaning they too must be totally transparent and carefully investigate their supply chains. The goal naturally is to get more companies and more people involved and take action. The fashion industry has to change, and it has to change now.  
 We are looking for people who feel as strongly as we do about changing the status quo. We believe there is a market for high-quality, sustainably made children's clothing. More parents like us must want their children to own clothes made to last, with a cool and fun design.  
 After a long intensive search for the right factory, we finally found a manufacturer we know is doing its best to produce clothes using fewer chemicals, use renewable energy, think circularly, and eliminate waste the best it can. 
 Our first step was to define sustainability for the company and our workers. What vision and goals are we working towards? Becoming more circular is one goal. To have every single worker live a better life (in every part of the production).  
 Moving away from cotton was a no-brainer. Most companies buy their cotton from factories without really knowing the development process, where it comes from, the conditions of the farmers, and its TRUE environmental effect on the planet. There is no fundamental understanding of the social and environmental impact. An accurate and transparent investigation must take place. Otherwise, the risk of falling victim to greenwashing is high.  Almost all companies are talking about sustainability. Unfortunately, most of it is greenwashing; companies are doing the bare minimum to receive certifications. If an Oeke or GOTS cotton certification is handed to a product, what does that mean? Is that certification enough for us customers to justify the product as sustainable? What does sustainable even mean? Don't we have to take the company behind the product into consideration? After consulting with many sustainability experts, we chose to go with Lyocell. Not only is Lyocell the most sustainable material out there, but it's also durable and incredibly soft and comfortable. A big part of the design is durability. No more wear and tear; throw the clothes out after only one child gets to wear the item. Peppelini garments are made with love, and we demand our customers to treat them with the respect they deserve. 
 Our daughter Pepp's favorite clothes are Lyocell clothes made in Utenos! We know the quality is super high. After many, many washes, those clothes are still as good as new.  We also wanted to find the most environmentally friendly transportation method and boxes to ship the clothes in. 

Parental Growth - Er PT för familjen

Parental Growth erbjuder digitalt föräldrastöd med syftet att stärka relationerna och samarbetet inom familjen via utmaningar, kurser, föreläsningar och enskild rådgivning.

FoodJudge

FoodJudge is developing a mobile application to help everyday hungry restaurant go'ers around the world have the perfect food experience with our research platform aggregating reviews and opinions. Ever wondered what to order when dining in a restaurant? Ever feel like trying something new on the menu, but being concerned you will not like it? Ever wanting to try the very best version of your favourite dish? This is the situation for millions of people around the world every day. And who actually decides which burger is best in town? A handful of food critics or the thousands of people dining every day? FoodJudge wants to give all restaurant go'ers the platform to make informed decisions, get inspired, voice their opinion and be the real food critics. FoodJudge is solving these issues by: 1) Aggregating reviews and opinions of thousands of restaurant go'ers. 2) Providing every restaurant go'er with detailed reviews on each dish on the menu. 3) Sharing reviews and opinions with restaurant owners to help them improve and adjust their menu and dishes. 4) Empowering every restaurant go'er to become the food critic of today and let them decide on where the best burger in town is. The transparency TrustPilot has generated for the travel business, or Vivino has for Wine, the same FoodJudge want to do for food.

Plug Software

Many companies have Aftermarket service for their product. The invoicing for this is often very complex and the processes sometimes do not always capture and price everything that should really be billed for. This can cause leakage and often 1-3% of the Service / Aftermarket top line is lost this way. We are there to help these companies identify and capture this lost value. We do this by installing our software, that runs in the back-ground. Plug can memorise all your customer touch points and contracts and can secure that all times are included. Plug helps you not only charge accurately but also ensures all components are charged for. Plug immediately improves your bottom line, enables discounting transparency, and at the same time builds customer trust.

Linbakst

We produce new unique generation of bread without any use of grains. We have developed a unique technology to process flaxseeds (new superfood) in a way that we can produce a healthy bread out of them without the use of any allergens. This bread is naturally GLUTEN FREE, HIGH IN FIBER, LOWCARB, HIGH IN OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS AND A GOOD SOURCE OF HIGH-QUALITY PROTEIN. Our bread is suitable for everyone with FOOD ALLERGIES: specifically also gluten, milk, soy, nuts and eggs. Furthermore our bread is suitable for people with such medical conditions or predispositions as: Diabetes, Cancer, Cardiovascular and Digestive diseases. Our bread is also very energy-dense and does not affect blood sugar levels - this means that by eating our bread, one will stay satited and energized much longer as opposed to standard bread. This is mainly due to low starch, and high fiber and omega-3 fat, content. This advantage alone can help to increase work-productivity. Food allergy is an increasing disease. It is generally accepted that food allergy affects approximately 2.5% of the global population - this represents roughly 160 Million people! (World Allergy Organization)

Light Bikes AS

We offer a unique opportunity to rent an electric bike via an app. The bike is designed to be safe, simple and efficient for all users. With our system we can control where the bikes must be parked, so that it does not hinder pedestrians or riders. This is called HUB/geo fence, which is both flexible and tidy. We are the first in the market with this idea for electric bike rentals run by local founders from Oslo. Our goal is to create a web of transport connected to all districts in Oslo. This is something we can achieve, because we already have good relations with the urban environment agency, as well as a couple of districts that are interested in this transport opportunity .

Biosfär AB

Our vision is to democratize elderly care by giving this group ownership over their life experiences and activities. The Biosfär is a welfare innovation relying on mixed digital and physical realities to deliver IMAX-like experiences for elderly with dementia. Our product is both a media installation and a pedagogy, breaking down physical and mental barriers to activate all human senses and experiences. With the help of mixed digital technology, Biosfär allows access to and control over daily activities otherwise unavailable to elderly living in assisted care facilities. After 2+ years of testing and participant observation, we have developed 4 concepts and a platform of workshops that fill human needs and are tailored to elderly with dementia. This includes (1) therapy, (2) lifelong learning, (3) story sharing and (4) festive social gatherings. In this time, we've brought residents to never before seen trips, into boat-building workshops, and down memory lane. This has led to 3 - 5x the amount of participation in daily activities at nursing homes, ventures into uncharted territory and one resident who began to speak after being diagnosed mute.

Sterk Saus

Norske håndlagde chilisauser Chili og kjærlighet er de to viktigste ingrediensene i våre sauser. Gründeren av Sterk Saus® heter Asle Schau-Hvatum og er en opprinnelig sørlending som har bosatt seg på det sentrale østlandet. I flere år før firmaet ble opprettet lagde Asle chilisaus hjemme for å gjøre fredagstacoen litt hottere og mer spenstig. Familie, venner og kjente smakte og ga tilbakemeldinger – slik at sausen hele tiden ble videreutviklet. Sterk Saus® har et brennhett forhold til chili – faktisk like heftig som varmeeksplosjonen du får av en modig, munnfull chilisaus. Vi elsker at smaksløkene våre blir utfordret og strukket. Og apropos løk, så er chili et voksende segment, akkurat som hvitløk var på 70/80-tallet. Kun råvarer av ypperste kvalitet blir med i våre sauskjeler. Chilimagien skjer i våre moderne produksjonslokaler i Halden, hvor vi tilbereder, koker og tapper hver eneste chiliflaske for hånd. Våre to viktigste ingredienser i sausen er chili og kjærlighet til faget. Dette kombinerer vi med moderne produksjonsmetoder, som sikrer kvalitet i alle ledd.

Maka

Maka is a designer of premium quality bags, clothing, boards, and apparel for skaters currently launching worldwide with our first two products; water-resistant skateboard bags in two unique designs that make transporting your board 100x easier. Who is behind Maka? Maka is driven by a dedicated team in Medellín, Colombia. Maka is the brainchild of two skaters; Diego Pineda (CEO) and Jorge Calle (Lead Designer). Diego was born in Colombia but fled to Arizona, USA, with his family in 1999 due to violence. He picked up skating immediately and would go on to work for skate shops and tour the country with a team. He returned in 2008 to study International Business, although he never put down his board, certain that he would find a way to make a living out of skating. Jorge was born in raised in a small ghetto in Medellín, Colombia. While many of his friends found their way into drugs and violence, Jorge found his way forward in life either on top of a skateboard or behind a sewing machine. His true passion is to create without limits, to try, to fail, and to try again until he’s created the best there possibly could be. So Diego, why did you start Maka? I live a pretty simple life philosophy; I do what I enjoy doing. However, like everyone (especially skaters), it can be hard to do what you really enjoy and pay the bills. I’ve always looked up to the skate culture for inspiration ever since I started to understand it – the style, the clothes, the street, the attitude to be against the norm of society… It’s a close-knit community, although it’s an individual activity. You don’t need a team to be able to skate. It’s a way of self-expression, and that, for me, is the starting point of it all. What is the ambition of Maka? There are not many cultures that truly accept everyone. Skateboarding does. White, black, green, yellow, purple, tall, short, weird, funny, cool – everyone is accepted because it’s about your individuality. For the majority of my life, most of the people I’ve met come from skateboarding. It all comes down to having fun. Learning, falling, and getting back up. So, why does all of this relate to ambition? Because, while we’re taking the brand worldwide, we also want to seize the opportunity to support more kids with what skating has given us; a way to express ourselves, a sense of purpose, and life-long friends. Skating made our lives what they are, and now it’s time to give back. 10% of all profits go towards supporting social causes here in the city of Medellín. To follow us on our mission, we invite you to follow our social media to help more children find paths away from the drugs and violence that are still present in this city.

CabiBUS Sustainable Mobility AB

Developing the best 1-100km sustainable public transportation service. CabiBUS Sustainable Mobility AB develop an autonomous electric minibus and system for sustainable, on demand, door-to-door, safe, secure, economic and efficient public transportation, parcel delivery and recycling collection. The minibus will have a unique patented design with separate cabins for each passenger, offering a comfortable and secure travel for all types of passengers. It solves the problem with fear of sharing rides with strangers or sending children to school or activities in a minibus without a driver. It also solves the problem with risk for viruses and infections in public transportation since each cabin have fresh air supply with selectable temperature and UV-C light disinfection when a cabin is empty. In case of an accident, each passenger is protected in the rigid cabin with airbags and air curtains all around, not possible in vehicles with open interiors. Between the cabins there is a strong framework that makes the vehicle withstand impacts from all sides, also only possible with this solution. In evenings and weekend, when people are at home and it is less demand for person transportation, cabins in some of the vehicles are exchanged with parcel box cabins and used for silent and fossil free e-commerce distribution and recycling collection. Several business models are possible. - The designs and patents can be licensed to vehicle manufacturers in different parts of the world. - Vehicles are manufactured and sold mobility operators. - Vehicles are manufactured and used by the company as a Robotaxi mobility operator. Autonomous mobility services are predicted to become the major mode of transportation and CabiBUS can become a unicorn in this field within 5 years. The company vision is best described with THE GLOBAL GOALS 11 Sustainable Cities And Communities Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable Target 11.2 AFFORDABLE AND SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORT SYSTEMS By 2030, provide access to safe, affordable, accessible and sustainable transport systems for all, improving road safety, notably by expanding public transport, with special attention to the needs of those in vulnerable situations, women, children, persons with disabilities and older persons

iZell

We’re living in a buyer-centric world, where companies need to connect with customers on their terms. But the scale and nature of online business means it's harder than ever to create personal connections with customers. That's why we created iZell -- to help businesses build better customer relationships through personalized one-to-one liveshopping experiences. We´ve developed a solution based on three insights… 1. Personal digital meetings. There is a need for e-retailers to bring personal shopping experience online. Today, there is no good support for personal digital meetings (one-to-one) where sellers can showcase products live and help the customer to buy, for example by adding products to the shopping cart. 2. Modern communication. There is a need to improve the customer experience with modern communication such as chat, video and live streaming. Today's consumers are used to modern communication such as WhatsApp, FaceTime, Youtube, TikTok. 3. Omnichannel communication. There is a lack of sales coordination between physical stores and e-commerce (omnichannel) which puts the buyer at the center and uses the selling company's resources efficiently.
