United Nations Youth Association(UNYA) Denmark

UNYA Copenhagen is a volunteer-driven youth organization dedicated to empowering young people to engage with global challenges through the lens of the United Nations’ values and the Sustainable Development Goals. We create an inclusive platform where students and young professionals can learn, collaborate, and take action on issues like climate change, social inequality, peacebuilding, and innovation. We are addressing a clear and growing problem i.e. the disconnect between youth and global institutions. Many young people in Denmark care deeply about sustainability and justice but find it difficult to access meaningful opportunities to participate in international dialogue or contribute to real-world impact. This gap leaves motivated individuals without a channel to apply their energy, creativity, and ideas, while institutions miss out on fresh perspectives and engagement from the very generation that will inherit the future. UNYA Copenhagen bridges this divide by turning global ideals into local action. We organize interactive events, workshops, and panel discussions that make complex global topics accessible and relevant. Our activities are co-created by volunteers from diverse academic and cultural backgrounds who bring their own insights to the table. Through collaboration with universities, NGOs, and public institutions, we connect youth directly with experts and decision-makers, fostering a sense of shared responsibility and agency. What makes UNYA Copenhagen unique is our grassroots approach. We are not just an organization — we are a community that thrives on collective energy and creativity. Every project is designed by young people for young people, ensuring authenticity, inclusivity, and long-term motivation. Our strength lies in our diversity and the genuine commitment of our volunteers, who bring the UN’s global mission to life in a way that feels personal and actionable. The motivation behind UNYA Copenhagen is simple: we believe that youth engagement should not be limited to classrooms or conferences but should become a lived experience. We started this initiative because we wanted to make international dialogue tangible, local, and inspiring. Our team members share a passion for learning, community-building, and positive change — values that drive us to dedicate our time to building something meaningful together. Today, UNYA Copenhagen continues to grow as a platform where ideas turn into impact. We are seeking motivated individuals who want to gain experience in leadership, communication, and project management while contributing to a global cause. By joining The Hub’s Community Program, we hope to reach more passionate volunteers who want to be part of a dynamic network that connects Copenhagen’s youth with the world.

CETO Innovation

CETO Innovation is developing a predictive maintenance solution for district heating networks, combining an in-pipe probe with data-driven failure predictions. Our technology enables early detection of pipeline issues, reducing downtime, maintenance costs, and energy waste while optimizing infrastructure management. We are addressing the challenges of aging district heating infrastructure, where reactive maintenance leads to inefficiencies and unexpected failures. By integrating real-time data analysis with in-pipe diagnostics, we aim to provide a smarter, more sustainable approach to pipeline management.

Perma Padel ApS

Perma Padel is on a mission to become a leading global racket sports brand and equipment manufacturer, defined by an unwavering commitment to premium performance, sustainability, and innovation. Perma Padel is the first to apply a novel industrial manufacturing process for padel rackets using 100% recyclable thermoplastic carbon fiber, unlocking a new era of performance, sustainability, and scalability. By moving from manual labor to precision automation, we slash manufacturing time significantly, while delivering a product that is twice as durable as the competition. Our Core Innovations Include: MonoFrame™: A supercar-inspired unibody design that removes the traditional hollow internal frame. This creates a stronger racket with a larger, more forgiving sweet spot. OmniCore™: High-grade foam from edge to edge. This eliminates dead zones, maximizes energy return, and significantly reduces vibration to lower the risk of injury. FutureFiber™: Our proprietary thermoplastic carbon fiber allows for a fully circular model. Unlike toxic epoxy-based rackets, our materials are 100% recyclable and enable zero-waste manufacturing. We have already secured a launch partnership with Denmark's biggest retailer and have an organic waitlist of over 700 players. We are currently finalizing product development for a Summer 2026 launch.

Unbelievable Labs

Based in Aarhus, Denmark, we are a Venture Lab for hard things, worth doing. Contrary to what many may think, the technological progress has stagnated for nearly four decades. Enabling and fundamental innovations such as the practical use of electricity, the telecommunications infrastructure, automatic computing, automotive transportation, heavier than air flight, genomics, and many other examples, all arose prior to the 1970s. What we have witnessed as progress within a generation is largely the application of these technologies in increasingly refined solutions. The latest wave of “softwaretization”, have increased operational efficiencies in multiple industries but also offset culturally and personal demand for tangible products and interactions, by web and app-based experiences. Our core thesis revolves around overcoming challenges in commercialization of scientific breakthroughs by providing the facility between scientists and entrepreneurs. We extend the conventional 10-year venture capital horizon, allowing for the maturation of technologies and customer demand. We focus specifically the hard sciences: physics, chemistry and their derived engineering disciplines. The markets and industries we work with are: - Military and Defense - Energy systems - Sustainable Resource Extraction - Access to space and ocean - Autonomous systems - AI for physical applications - Meta-materials and composites. We have great hopes for the future, and dare to bring it about. Come join us!

Nabo Farm ApS

Nabo Farm er et urbant landbrug drevet efter bæredygtige principper. Vi dyrker dild, koriander, fennikel, tallerkensmækker og andet mikrogrønt, som vi leverer til en kundekreds bestående af lokale restauranter og kantiner. Vores kunder er både kvalitets- og miljøbevidste. De kan se værdien i at modtage deres bestilling, senest to timer efter den er høstet. Hverken smag eller næringsværdi går tabt under leveringen, som selvfølgelig foregår med cykelbud. Sådan trækker vi i fællesskab fødevareindustrien i en sundere og mere bæredygtig retning. Det er det, vi forstår ved godt naboskab. Afgrøderne er naturligvis fri for sprøjtegift og genmodifikationer. Deres næringskilder er en nøje udvalgt sammensætning af ilt, mineraler, varme, vand og god musik. Tilsammen har vi mere end 15 år i tech-branchen på bagen. Den erfaring har vi brugt til at udvikle en software, som kan styre planternes omgivelser ned til mindste detalje. Resultatet er sundt og velsmagende bladgrønt. Det synes vi alle har ret til, ligesom enhver by har ret til en Nabo Farm.
