Girls' education is an incredibly powerful climate solution due to its stong relationship with child marriage prevention and subsequent delayed motherhood; impacting population growth and lowering consumption-based emissions. 130 million girls in the world's poorest and most climate-vulnerable communities are effectively excluded from education due to poverty. Humanitarian organizations in low-income countries constantly struggle to fundraise and are never able to fully meet the needs of the most marginalized. SoGreen is a startup with a big heart and an even bigger ambition: A world where all girls realise their right to education and climate justice is placed at the heart of all climate action. In collaboration with leading scientists at renowned European research institutions in the field of demography and climate science,* SoGreen has developed a methodology to quantify the climate impact of girls' education in tonnes CO2-equivalent avoided. This allows for the generation of carbon credits (1 ton = 1 carbon credit) which can be sold on the international carbon market to channel climate finance to girls' education. In partnership with FAWEZA, a leading pan-African NGO focusing on girls' education, SoGreen's pilot project is being implemented in Zambia. Over the coming 5 years, the project will ensure a full secondary education for 180 marginalized girls. All carbon credits generated by the project have been sold ex ante to over 30 companies that have ambitious sustainability strategies, which allow for the use of carbon credits in addition to reducing their own emissions. SoGreen aims to be the provider of the worlds most popular carbon credits within the next 5 years; resulting in a powerful reduction in emissions and a massive increase in educational attainment - a basic human right. *International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Austria, Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) in Germany, and The Wittgenstein Centre for Demography and Global Human Capital (WIC) in Austria.

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.

Klimascore er den nye danske standardparameter for klimavenlige hoteller. Igennem de sidste 4 år har vi arbejdet sammen med ledende hoteller i Danmark, samt afholdt en årlig kåring, Climate Award, for at finde Danmarks mest klimavenlige hotel. Klimascore er baseret på hotellernes egne data og direkte udledning. I nær dialog med hotelledelsen og nøgleansatte hjælper vi herefter hotellerne med at blive mere klimavenlige samtidigt med at de driver deres forretning fremad, både ift. at opnå besparelser, men også i forhold til branding, medarbejdertilfredshed m.m.

Klimakampen er en start-up, der laver klimakampagner for arbejdspladser, folkeskoler og gymnasier. I hold dyster ansatte og elever om at få klimavenlige vaner. Lidt en "Vi Cykler Til Arbejde", bare med klima. Konkurrencen varer typisk 4 uger og faciliteres i vores egen app. Her vælger man hvilke pointgivende aktiviteter man har udført og ser statistik for hvordan man klarer sig og hvor meget CO2 man har sparet. Vi afholdt flere kampagne med betalende kunder og forsøger nu at skalere. Vi sidder på kontor på KU Lighthouse - Tagensvej 16a Vi er tre i teamet. Nicolai der er klimaspecialist. Dan, der er programmør og Kristian, der er klimaformidler. Vi søger en til at hjælpe med kommunikation, salg og marketing.

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.

While our eyes is on the fourth industrial revolution, we want to be part of the energy revolution and help to reduce the CO2 footprint in every single workplace. we move towards greener workplace by a software solution on energy optimization of dynamic mechanical systems (DMS). Our target industry for now is ventilation systems so called as HVAC for office building. The product is a software solution that monitors and optimizes energy consumption of HVACs. But why HVACs? Ventilations are installed in almost all office and industrial buildings. Only in Denmark, 12 M m2 of area is dedicated to offices and buildings. This corresponds to a huge energy consumption by HVACs (about 40% of total electrical energy consumption of a building and funny enough buildings are responsible for almost half of energy consumption of Denmark in a year). Despite of HVACs simplicity from system point of view, they are very complicated and confusing for the HVAC owners. The energy consumption and waste energy is not clear. Therefore, energy optimization becomes a long shot. 4i4’s product is solving these issues and brings values for the HVAC owners by peace of mind and valuable insight on how to optimize the energy and save on CO2 emission.
