Leftovers

Leftovers (leftovers.food) is a marketplace for affordable, home-cooked meals made by talented local cooks and sold to students and young professionals. Problem: In cities like Copenhagen, there is a clear gap between expensive takeaway / delivery (often over 150-200 DKK per meal), and cheap supermarket food, which requires time, planning, and cooking skills many people don’t have. For international students, young professionals, and time-poor households, the result is: 1) Overpaying for mediocre takeaway, 2) Eating repetitive, low-quality convenience food, 3) Food waste from over-purchasing groceries, and 4) A lack of affordable, authentic, home-style meals. At the same time, there is untapped supply: 1) Skilled home cooks with excess capacity, 2) Parents cooking large family meals, 3) Culturally diverse residents who want to share traditional cuisine, and 4) People looking for flexible side income. Solution: Leftovers connects people who love to cook with people who want affordable, authentic, home-cooked meals. Through the digital platform, customers can: 1) Browse daily meals from local cooks, 2) Order affordable portions (e.g. 60–90 DKK), and 3) Pick up locally or access coordinated delivery. Cooks can: 1) Monetise excess capacity, 2) Generate flexible income, and 3) Build micro-brands around their cuisine. Leftovers sits between informal food-sharing and expensive food delivery platforms - creating a structured, trusted, and potentially scalable marketplace. Importantly, a favourable regulatory environment in Denmark allows small-scale food sales from home kitchens under certain conditions, lowering barriers to entry. Why Now? 1) Cost-of-living pressure makes affordable meals more attractive than ever, 2) Platform trust (ratings, payments, verification) makes peer-to-peer food viable at scale, 3) Cultural diversity in cities like Copenhagen increases demand for authentic cuisine, 4) Regulatory tailwinds in Denmark lower entry barriers relative to many other countries, 5) Consumers are increasingly open to non-traditional food distribution models, and 6) Values of trust, community, sharing and sustainability in Denmark are key enablers. Founder: Leftovers is rooted in lived experience. I identified the problem firsthand while living in a Copenhagen student dorm, and validated demand through surveys across students, young professionals, and families. I understand scalable marketplace economics from your finance background. I have hospitality connections (chefs, food influencers) and access to capital networks. And finally, I understand how to position this as more than a food app - but as an authentic, community-driven, scalable, city-by-city platform model. How? The app is live (https://apps.apple.com/au/app/leftovers/id6748817523) and a kickstarter program is imminent to launch (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/leftovers/leftovers-pilot-edition-a-community-food-sharing-experiment) in collaboration with CBS student housing to further validate the concept. The near-term plan is to build awareness and trust in order to drive user adoption. A targeted marketing campaign (incentives, content and events) and funding efforts are underway. I am looking to offer a co-founder equity that is passionate about the concept to help drive community-building and marketing efforts. Leftovers is not just about cheap meals, it’s about unlocking under-utilised kitchen capacity, creating income opportunities and empowering home cooks, reducing food waste, building local food communities. Long-term, it becomes the Airbnb of home-cooked food - starting in Denmark, then expanding city-by-city across Scandinavia and Europe. *We are on a mission to empower home cooks to provide a more affordable, authentic and sustainable alternative to delivery, while building community*

FlowRobe

Team FlowRobe are on a mission. We got this burning desire for a sustainable fashion industry and to give clothes new lives by creating flow in your wardrobe. Our app is the most fun, simple and safe marketplace that you can ever imagine. Tinder, eBay and Instagram – just for “preloved” secondhand and cool fashion! It’s 2021 – and although sustainability, fashion and e-trading trend like never before, only about 1 out of 20 in the Western World trade secondhand online. It turns out that the current marketplaces are too hard, risky and outdated. That’s an issue for our kids and grandkids when the consumption of just a single t-shirt pollutes like two hours of hot shower and eight kilo conventional meat. But we got a groundbreaking solution. Try to imagine – that all those leftovers you got at home were fast to upload and easy to sell. Imagine if swiping unique secondhand and 24-hour auctions made it fun to buy – with full return from validated users through safe transaction systems. What if we could enter our wardrobe from everywhere? Even follow, like and comment on friends and influencer’s clothes, and women easily borrow from each other. That’s how we’re imagining FlowRobe – the digital and social wardrobe. This is basically everything that young people, modern mothers, you and I didn’t know we needed. We reach our target audiences through influencers, online communities and media stunts – along with help from our animated friends Florian and Roberta. Because it’s time we get a responsible clothes consumption. Time to cultivate fashion just like art, culture and music. Time to give clothes new lives and have flow in our robes.
