Elby

Personal transportation is one of the greatest sources to Co2-emmission and air pollution. The change from a fossil fuel car to an EV is the lowest hanging fruits to decrease this emmission. Before you make this shift, you want to make sure that you can charge your car, which can be challenging if you live in a city, where you depend on a public roll out of EV charging infrastructure, which often lacks behind. This is what we want to change with Elby. Elby's solution enables an ubiquitous roll out on market conditions and at a marginal cost of the known solutions.

Paint'R

In the European Union alone, more than 1.5 million paint buckets are discarded daily, constituting a disposal of 340 tons of single-use plastic that is incinerated each day. Starting from early 2023 (2025 in Denmark and Slovenia), manufacturers are obligated to cover the disposal costs of their packaging based on sustainability criteria. In Denmark, this translates to an estimated 15% fee on paint buckets. Furthermore, the conventional round shape of packaging has proven suboptimal for logistics and transportation. Beyond its environmental impact, the traditional paint bucket poses challenges for professional painters. These challenges encompass ergonomic issues during handling, such as the strain of lifting two buckets simultaneously, which exceeds recommended weight limits according to the Working Environment Authority. Painters also find themselves in awkward positions when pouring paint into a roller bucket for wall application. The demanding physical nature of the painting profession in Denmark results in accelerated fatigue and early retirement for painters. Additionally, issues like lid leakage due to dried paint and the use of fragile, porous plastic contribute to unexpected spills, particularly during abrupt vehicle stops. Our innovative solution involves a cardboard box housing two patent-pending plastic bags, each containing 5 liters of paint. This packaging not only enhances the workflow for professional painters but also reduces costs and lowers carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions by approximately 65% per unit. The box's design facilitates easy and ergonomic transportation, allowing for a 45% increase in units per pallet. The box is opened, and one of the bags is inserted into a standard roller bucket used by painters. The bag effortlessly opens and seamlessly fits into the roller bucket, wrapping around the edges, and enabling the painter to begin work promptly. This functionality is made possible through an innovative patented design and specific plastic welding techniques.

Ximplifi

🎛 The Smart Home for Complex Cloud IT Infrastructure ☁️ "Mama always said, SWITCH THE LIGHT OFF WHEN YOU'RE NOT USING IT! Our utility bill is going through the roof." The same principle holds for cloud computing. But everything is turned on 24/7, by default, with no apparent switches available. Complex interfaces, scripting, and monitoring. A mostly manual process, adding hours and hours to engineers' schedules. Wasting businesses' budgets by over 32%. In an industry estimated at $2,4 Bn by 2025. The Smart SaaS Switch Ximplifi is the smart switch helping businesses keep their cloud consumption in check. The SaaS layers on top of the cloud (Microsoft Azure), handling complex shut/scale down of Virtual Machines, Disks, Databases, and more. Simply with a switch (it's a toggle, but who counts 🤷) Not Artificial. Simply Intelligent. The SaaS securely connects with the customer's internal governance and security directory (AzureAD), constantly monitoring and analysing for cost opportunities. To help them get the most cost-optimised cloud consumption outside hours of activity. Where competitors mostly focus on analysing billing data, Ximplifi takes it further. We analyse usage patterns and automate the operational part of managing resources' costs. Giving back valuable time and energy to businesses, helping them ensure state-of-the-art cloud infrastructure at minus 26% of the cost. Join us in taming cloud computing for businesses to prosper.
