We are devoted to accelerating the development and adoption of technologies that can help fight climate change by actively removing CO2 from the atmosphere. The challenge We are emitting 50 Gigatons of CO2 every year, and that needs to be reduced by at least 80%. However, that still leaves 10 Gigatons of CO2, and we need to get all the way to zero. Trees are great, but we need many more solutions as well if we are to get to zero. Currently, most of these are way too expensive (and limited in capacity) for companies to use. We've developed a platform that combines methods and makes it available to every company that wants to compensate their emissions. We work with cutting edge technologies, including Direct Air Capture, Bio char, Bio oil etc.

ESEBA, a deep tech startup from DTU, transforms low-quality textile waste into MDF boards without binders or formaldehyde. We offer a sustainable, non-toxic alternative to traditional wood-based panels. Textile waste is a massive and growing problem in Europe – less than 1% is recycled into new products, and most ends up incinerated. At the same time, formaldehyde regulations are tightening, and deforestation pressures are increasing demand for alternatives to virgin wood. ESEBA’s mission is to enable local, circular board production through a scalable, plug-and-produce production line for furniture manufacturers.

Tepui Agentic Labs is Europe’s first AI-native agentic data platform , built in Denmark from the ground up on EU-sovereign infrastructure for mid-market businesses trapped on legacy systems. Most mid-market companies across Europe are sitting on years of valuable business data locked inside outdated databases, spreadsheets, and disconnected systems. They have no data team to fix it, and enterprise solutions are priced for companies ten times their size. The result: critical business decisions made on gut feel, manual reports that take days to assemble, and institutional knowledge trapped in files nobody dares to touch. Tepui solves this with three product lines. Datarcon modernises legacy data, extracting, cleaning, and transforming it into a modern analytics layer the business actually owns. Our Sovereign SaaS platform lets companies run AI-powered tools on EU infrastructure with no data leaving European soil ,fully compliant, fully controlled. And Tonin, our autonomous 24/7 AI agent, monitors the business continuously, triggers alerts, generates reports, and answers operational questions in plain language. Tonin is not a chatbot , it is an always-on intelligence layer that works while the team sleeps. A standout feature of our AI agents is the Consciousness Core , an integrated ethics layer ensuring responsible AI behaviour and compliance with the EU AI Act from inception. Every agent decision is traceable, auditable, and explainable by design. The platform is built on an enterprise-grade 7-layer security architecture, fully EU-sovereign with no data leaving European soil. We serve multiple industry verticals across Denmark hospitality (restaurant groups, hotels), construction (mid-market contractors), social housing (almene boligorganisationer), investment funds (PE, VC, family offices), food suppliers, automotive (parts distributors, dealer groups), and law firms with additional verticals in development. Every vertical has the same problem: years of data locked in systems that never talk to each other. Same core product, different industry configuration. We are pre-seed, incubated at ITU NextGen Incubator 2026, and actively pursuing first pilot clients in Denmark.-sovereign deployment on European infrastructure as standard. Made in Denmark. Built for Europe.
