Refine

Freight forwarders are being asked for greener transport, but most still do not have a simple way to sell it. Refine plugs into the forwarder’s operation and turns shipment data into a ready-to-sell low carbon offer. We bring pricing, sourcing, customer acceptance and documentation into one end to end workflow. The idea is simple: help freight forwarders build a new business line, earn more on every customer relationship and become the green partner their customers actually want to work with.

Normative

Our Mission: Normative is here to make known and reduce the sustainability impact of all economic activities on the planet. We provide science-based carbon accounting software and tailored advice from net zero experts, enabling companies to reduce their carbon footprints. Our Story: Normative is rooted in climate research. In 2013, co-founder Kristian Rönn was working at Oxford University, simulating the consequences of climate change. The results showed that global warming would cause extreme human suffering, motivating Kristian to leave academia and take action. He joined forces with Adam Wamai Egesa and Robin Undall-Behrend, and in 2014 the world’s first carbon accounting engine was born to help humanity achieve net zero emissions and reverse the trajectory of climate change. We now have offices in Stockholm, Copenhagen, and London, and are actively hiring talent to join the mission. Today, companies from around the world trust our carbon accounting engine to help them reduce their carbon footprint. We partner with leading climate change organisations including the UN, to deliver actionable sustainability intelligence and have received a grant from Google. We are backed by some of the world’s most significant climate investors, and are the official software provider for the UN-backed SME Climate Hub initiative through which thousands of small businesses have committed to net zero. Our Team: We are a global team working to solve a global problem. We’re headquartered in Stockholm, with offices in Copenhagen and London as well as remote team members located all over the world. We have spoken at the World Economic Forum, consulted the European Commission, and worked with the United Nations to develop a new standard for emissions accounting. We come from many walks of life, but we’re united in one mission: to help humanity achieve net zero emissions. Every employee at Normative plays a valuable role in reducing business carbon emissions.

Emballage Indberetning

Emballage Indberetning er en kollektiv ordning, der håndterer producentansvaret for danske virksomheder. Med mere end 3.800 medlemmer er vi Danmarks største kollektive ordning, og vi er de eneste i landet, der dækker alle 8 produktområder. De fleste kollektive ordninger dækker kun ét eller to områder, så en virksomhed med flere produkttyper må være medlem tre forskellige steder, med tre kontrakter, tre sæt satser og tre indberetningsrytmer at holde styr på. Hos os er det ét medlemskab, der dækker hele producentansvaret, og vi bygger vores egen software for at understøtte vores medlemmer bedst muligt. Producentansvar er et miljøprincip: virksomheder får det juridiske og økonomiske ansvar for deres produkters miljøpåvirkning, især når produkterne bliver til affald. Det skubber til mere bæredygtigt design, mere genanvendelse og mindre affald. Godt for planeten, men svært for virksomhederne. De fleste har aldrig hørt om producentansvar, før de pludselig er omfattet, og så møder de et regelsæt skrevet af jurister til jurister. Hvert produktområde (emballage, elektronik, batterier, engangsplast og flere) har sine egne satser, sine egne materialefraktioner og sin egen indberetningsrytme. Det rammer tusindvis af danske virksomheder, og hvert år bliver flere omfattet. Bag hvert fysisk produkt, der bliver indberettet, gemmer der sig mange bevægelige dele. Der skal faktureres, laves stikprøver og indsamles data hver gang en affaldsspand bliver tømt: hvor meget kan genanvendes, og hvad skal brændes? En af vores største opgaver som kollektiv ordning er at indsamle og måle den data og indberette den videre til myndighederne. Derfor bygger vi vores egen software. Ikke for at sælge den, men fordi vores forpligtelser kan automatiseres, når de bliver til kode. Vi startede i januar 2025, fordi producentansvar giver god mening for miljøet, men er indrettet dårligt for de virksomheder, det rammer. Miljøet vinder kun, hvis virksomhederne rent faktisk kan finde ud af at leve op til reglerne. Vores mission er at gøre producentansvar så enkelt og tilgængeligt, at en virksomhed kan overholde det uden at forstå hvert komma i lovgivningen og komme tilbage til sin forretning. På 14 måneder er vi gået fra 2 til 15 medarbejdere.

Behold

Behold helps animals change people. Our technology turns everyday wildlife encounters into moments of discovery. It meets people where they are, whether at home, on their devices, or in their communities. It shifts how they see nature and their role in it. It is entertainment with a purpose, designed to inspire and influence behaviour in subtle but meaningful ways. But we are not just here to tell stories. We are building a network of thousands of garden cameras, creating the largest database of residential wildlife sightings. A powerful tool for conservation, citizen science, and understanding the changing natural world. Our first product, Behold Cam-1, became a massive success on Kickstarter – hitting its funding goal in under 2 hours, and raising almost $400k in pre-orders. We're now bringing that product to market. It’s an opportunity to join at the earliest stages—with all the challenges and rewards that come with it.

Rock Flour Company

Rock Flour Company is a dynamic, mission-driven startup founded by Professor Minik Rosing, the world-renowned geologist and pioneer of utilizing Greenlandic Rock Flour (GRF) for carbon-negative agronomic applications. Our core mission is ambitious: to bring GRF to market, enabling sustainable agriculture, facilitating carbon removals at scale, and delivering tangible economic benefits to local communities in both Greenland and specific farming regions globally. Today, we’re a dynamic core team of five with a validated potential by top investors across the globe. In September this year, we raised our second financing round featuring major commitments from Danish & Greenlandic institutional investors like Novo Holdings, EIFO (Danish state venture fund), SISA, and Nalik Ventures.

GLYON

GLYON is developing a CO₂-powered textile-to-textile recycling technology to help brands, fiber producers, and recyclers solve the growing textile waste crisis with a breakthrough chemical recycling process that turns waste into virgin-quality raw materials for new fibers—without fossil fuels. We address the massive problem of textile waste, a global crisis where over 92 million tonnes of textile waste are discarded each year—most of it ending up in landfills or incinerated. This contributes to major pollution issues but also forces the textile industry to continue its dependence on virgin fossil-based materials. Our solution targets fiber producers, brands, and recyclers who need circular raw material solutions. Our CO₂-based chemical recycling process breaks down polyester textiles into building blocks and leaves other fibers like cotton intact. Both PET building blocks and cotton can be used to produce new, high-quality fibers without the need for virgin oil and reducing water consumption and CO₂ emissions.

Lun

Our carbon emissions are still increasing, and the evidence for dramatic climate change is all around. We want to do our part in solving it. In Europe, 12% of our carbon emissions come from heating our homes - just as much as using our cars. Getting those emissions to zero will be a gargantuan task: retrofitting 90 million buildings across many countries is a hard problem. Lun’s mission is to decarbonise homes faster, by building an operating system for tradespeople in the European energy renovation industry. Our first task is to make heat pump installations an absolute no-brainer for plumbers and electricians.
