Provargo A/S er markedsførende indenfor drikkevarekontrol. Vi udvikler, producerer og leverer online baserede doserings og kontrolsystemer til hospitality branchen, med et væld af kunder i både Danmark og resten af verden. Vi gennemgår i øjeblikket en spændende fase i vores udvikling som virksomhed, med et større fokus rettet mod bar,-, hotel-, og restaurationskæder. Samtidig arbejder vi også tæt sammen med distributører på markedet. I bar og restaurationsbranchen er det almindeligt at se relativt høje spildprocenter på drikkevarer. Det resulterer i to problemstillinger: 1) Et stort tab af omsætning. 2) Manglende overblik over reel lagerbeholdning af eksempelvis fustager, flasker, post-mix beholdere, osv. Derfor har vi udviklet systemer der synliggør på et online dashboard, nøjagtigt hvad der tappes af såvel spiritus, som øl, vin og sodavand. Alle tappedata registreres med tidsstempler og er i stand til at give brugeren et overblik over forbrugsmønstre, lagerniveauer, spidsbelastninger af personale, faktisk forbrug af drikkevarerne der tilbydes, m.v. Vores kerneprodukt er i stand til at integrere med cloud-baserede POS systemer, hvilket gør det muligt for udvalgte personer (eksempelvis ejere eller lokale driftschefer) at overvåge balanceforholdet imellem salg og faktiske udskænkninger. Herudover tilbyder vi også øvrige løsninger der sikrer at kvaliteten af drikkevarerne er i top, eksempelvis ved temperaturkontrol og køler overvågning. Da vi er en virksomhed der selv udvikler og producerer alle vore løsninger fra bunden, inklusiv vores cloud, har vi også stor fokus på løbende at optimere og forbedre alle elementer. Vi er naturligvis i denne proces, lydhøre overfor branchens input og ser ligeledes, at de mennesker der er en del af vores team, har et indgående kendskab til industrien. Vi har pt. base i Greve, hvor vi har lækre rammer i et komtorfællesskab, med egne kontorer og godt med albuerum – såvel fysisk som mentalt i teamet. Vores kerneværdier som arbejdsplads er:' • Positiv, professionel og konstruktiv i vores dialog, både internt og i kontakten med vores kunder • Med et smil på læben kommer man langt – humor er derfor en vigtig del af vores hverdag • Vi løfter i flok når en udfordrende opgave skal bæres i mål • Fleksibilitet og gensidig tillid er nøgler til en effektiv indsats I scale-up processen hvor vi lige nu befinder os, tilbyder vi ansættelse under funktionær vilkår, med tilhørende sundhedsforsikring. Velkommen til Provargo!

We turn life science and deep tech ideas into commercially successful companies. We serve both as a consultancy and as a venture builder. At Marigold Innovation, we build bridges between research and business, science and product, researchers and investors. Most scientists prefer to stay where they add the most value, namely as highly skilled scientists and inventors who understand the translational process at an intellectual level, without the deep insight and experience in how to execute accordingly. ​We want to ensure that the skilled scientists focus on what they excel in – doing science and inventing stuff! ​ Marigold Innovation closes the gap by bringing the competences required to complement the scientific team. 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.

LivingBetter skaber værdi for boligforeninger, entreprenører og beboere med sund, naturlig ventilation, som sænker energiforbruget. Vi løser byggeriets udfordringer med dårligt indeklima og for høj tæthed – både i renoveringer og nybyggeri. Vores store mål er at nedbringe udslippet af CO2, gøre det lettere at skabe sunde bygninger og give mennesker et bedre liv. Derfor har vi også udviklet det komplette energi- og indeklimakoncept, LivingBetter, som kombinerer Ventilationsvinduerne med en udsugningsvarmepumpe. Den omdanner energien i den gamle luft til varme og varmt brugsvand. Kernen i Ventilationsvinduet er en temperaturfølsom ventil, som selv justerer luftindtaget uden brug af strøm. LivingBetter er en 100 % danskejet virksomhed. Produktionen samarbejder vi med licenstagere og samarbejdespartnere om i både ind- og udland. LivingBetter og Ventilationsvinduet er præmieret af byggeriets parter for sin dokumenterede energibesparelse og fleksibilitet. Det skete med produktprisen i Det Bæredygtige Element 2016.

The CargoGator is a bike trailer developed for moving cargo and parcels in the city. It is made from light-weight materials, can be mounted to almost any bike or e-bike, and with separate break-system, it is easy to handle for even non-experienced riders. With an ever growing number of last-mile and on-demand services in the cities, more and more pressure on the road networks, and a need to reduce our carbon-emission, we need to think of t.ex. bike deliveries as a part of the solution to solve transportion demands in the cities. Instead of everyone developing their own cargobikes, which can be expensive and only serves one purpose, as cargobikes, we will offer the CargoGator to bike-sharing programmes across Europe. For free. We have developed the CargoGator so it can be adapted to almost any e-bike, and the cover of the trailer, is made of strong PVC material that can be printed with any ads or commercials, which we will be selling to third parties, who wish to have their messages exposed in a new eco-friendly way on a whole new outdoor platform. Exposure of the ads will both be visible when riders are moving through the city, but as most pick-up stations of bike-sharing programmes are where people need them, the ads will also be exposed even when not rented out. Users of a shared bike/trailer solution will be both private persons living and moving in the city, and who occasionally will have a need of getting personal effects, large buys or other transported, but also professional riders, who are working for the growing number of on-demand services, couriers, supermarked delivery services a number of times a week. Instead of the riders themselves or their employers need to invest and allocate expensive cargobikes or other equipment, it will simply be possible to pick up a bike and trailer in the nearest bike-station, which is already financed through commercials. This is our core business model. There is ofcourse a market also for sellling the CargoGator to companies with their own fleet of bike-trailers or cargobikes, public institutions or other potential clients, who have a need or wish for a flexible and eco-friendly transport solution.

evolvT facilitates responsibility for local micro and small e-commerce operators by providing environmentally friendly last-mile delivery solutions. The service includes all delivery aspects from route planning and customer service to a fleet of low tailpipe emissions vehicles. The impact of the industry on the environment is one of the most important drivers of change. In this field, 1 standard diesel van can release around 1.2 metric tons of CO2 every month. The end customers are more sensitive to this impact and more inclined to choose e-commerce operators that are working on decreasing the CO2 emissions of their operations. Meanwhile, efficiency and profitability are still prioritized by the e-commerce operators and overlooking these factors is not an option.
