Africa Reframed

Online marketplace for African imagery - Powered by online learning. Africa is rising and a visual reframing of the continent is emerging. A reframing crafted by African content creators, telling Africa's story of change. At Africa Reframed we connect a community of African photographers to the world’s leading companies and organizations to create and promote captivating imagery and bespoke projects that propel new storytelling from the African continent. Imagery in the Africa Reframed imagebank has been used by the worlds leading organizations such as: Gates Foundation, UN, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Pfizer, Ernst & Young, Spotify, NBC, Yahoo, Sitecore, Exxon, Cambridge University Press, Hearst, Condé Nast, Lloyds bank, Europe- an Investment Bank, Shell, AOL, ABC, NEC, CNBC, KPMG, Discovery, VISA, Deloitte, Accenture, Ogilvy, UPS, Viacom, Pearson, Barclays, BBC, Axel Springer, British Council, M&C Saatchi, ASUS, Del Monte, Time inc., RTL, Virgin, McKinsey, Airtel, Guardian, Uber, Orange, 3M, HSBC, Samsung, The World Bank and many more. We are looking for investors sharing our vision of Africa Reframed as a value-driven, profitable business that strives to alter the global community’s perception of the African continent while also building sustainable job opportunities for photographers across Africa. Alongside its sister organization, Commerce & Culture, Africa Reframed has managed an array of long-term projects with leading contemporary visual artists globally and organized photo exhibitions with more than 100.000 paying visitors across 3 continents. Among these, the largest exhibition to date with African photography in northern Europe. SDGs: Quality education and decent work and economic growth, SDGs 4 and 8, are an integrated part of the Africa Reframed business model. When the United Nations In 2015 was launching the SDGs with Project Everyone, they did so with a campaign to share the global goals with 7 billion people in 7 days. This happened via global broadcasts, outdoor advertising campaigns, cinema ads, mobile partnerships, and more. Because of the above, Images from our program were among the officially chosen for the campaign and were singled out by the global campaign team as good education and economic growth in action. Misson: Most of the imagery we encounter from the African continent tends to either depict the beautiful scenery and wildlife or scenes of poverty, war, and desperation. While these indeed are bona fide aspects and challenges, Africa is also a continent characterized by immense growth, varied opportunities, and not least, change. The mission of Africa Reframed is to capture and contribute to the spurring of this change by a visual reframing of the continent. A reframing that reflects African enterprise, innovation, and everyday life. Africa Reframed exists to create and promote this new imagery in the belief that by changing the visuals, we can help change the conversation. Thus an inherent part of Africa Reframed’s DNA, which is also mirrored in the name of the company, is to be a catalyst for the way the world looks at the African continent. The wish to illustrate the real Africa and thus to spur optimism and hope around its future makes the company strongly value-driven, and it is believed that such a shared view will help bind contributors, clients, and other stakeholders close together. In 2020 Africa Reframed received an investment from Innovation fund Denmark and was selected as a finalist for the SDG Tech Award.

At Ooolio, our belief is built around improving the entire shopping experience from finding, selecting and purchasing clothes with a focus on ease-of-use instead of a one-size-fits-all.

It is a platform for local seniors (we call them “Silvers”) to host intimate dinners and workshops to share their wisdom and life experience. Our Silvers include creatives, community leaders, educators, and pioneers. Guests are invited into real homes, studios, and personal spaces across the city and nearby areas. These include a sustainable tiny house in Christiania, an art-filled apartment in Frederiksberg, and a community collective in Roskilde. Around the dinner table or through guided conversation, guests explore topics like sustainability, identity, creativity, and belonging - all through the lens of lived experience. We offer a unique space where active seniors host unique activities, showcase their talent and bridge the gap between generations. Our core value is to bring all the expertise from the senior set through real life experiences.

Brand Leadership Community

The Brand Leadership Community (BLC) is a Copenhagen-based startup that has evolved from a series of events into a living learning and relationship ecosystem designed for the professionals behind the world’s leading brands. We serve as a strategic knowledge bridge connecting Brands, Agencies, and Technology Vendors—including iconic Nordic names like Maersk, LEGO, Pandora, Aller Media, and Bang & Olufsen (B&O). The Problem We Are Solving Modern brand building is increasingly complex, yet professionals face three critical roadblocks: o The "Martech Gap": Organizations invest millions in complex enterprise software (from a landscape of 14,000+ vendors) but fail to maximize its value due to siloed knowledge and a lack of platform-specific expertise. o Impersonal Networking: Traditional industry conferences are often impersonal "sales pitches" where real peer-to-peer connection is rare and tactical insights are often hidden rather than shared. o Leadership Isolation: Senior leadership can be lonely, and many operators lack a confidential space to compare notes, share "crime scene" stories of failed implementations, and solve challenges with trusted peers. Our Solution We facilitate "relationships that matter" through a multi-layered platform for professional growth: o Strategic Event Formats: We run premium, intimate gatherings like Masterminds and energetic Jam Sessions that prioritize facilitated problem-solving over standard presentations. o Specialized Tech Tribes: We build software-focused sub-communities (e.g., Adobe, Google, and Amplitude tribes) where practitioners help each other drive adoption and innovation. o Knowledge-Based Publishing: Through BLC Insights Magazine, we translate live conversations into evergreen editorial content, creating a repository of peer-endorsed wisdom that guides decision-making. o High-Value Networks: We facilitate high-ticket Network Groups where senior managers workshop real-world problems in an exclusive, non-technical setting. Why We Do It & Current Focus We believe that better content leads to better conversations, and better conversations lead to stronger brands. In an AI-heavy landscape, authentic human connection and peer-led learning have become the ultimate premium. As we enter 2026, BLC is transitioning from "momentum to maturity" by professionalizing our operations through a structured OKR framework. Our current growth focus is centered on student engagement. We are actively recruiting ambitious Interns and Student Workers, primarily those studying Marketing, International Business and/or Business Administration, who want to act as "process engineers". These recruits will help build practical structures and playbooks while serving the architects of global brand leadership.

Homeswap

Homeswap is a platform where members can stay in each other’s homes instead of paying for accommodation. The model is built on credits: you earn credits when you host other members, and you use those credits to travel. There is no money exchanged between members, which makes the experience feel more personal, fair and community-driven than traditional renting. Travel with Homeswap feels different because you stay in real homes, in real neighbourhoods, from real people. It attracts a type of traveller who values meaning and connection over pure convenience. Many members also like the sustainable aspect – instead of building new hotels or keeping second homes empty, existing space is shared and used better. The platform has already grown organically to members in more than 20 countries. We have not relied on paid marketing so far. Growth has come through word of mouth, community recommendations and people who like the idea of travelling without paying for accommodation.

Engrafo

Engrafo supplies a knowledge sharing platform which automatically and structured collects information about your business critical data and how they’re used for analysis and reports throughout your organization. And with the new AI LLM integration, Engrafo goes beyond cataloging. You can now select data from your catalog and have advanced AI models automatically generate: High-level dataflow descriptions — clear, non-technical summaries for business users. Program pseudocode — targeting different programming languages (Python, C#, Java, SQL, and more). Flowcharts & process diagrams — automatically visualizing program logic and data flows. High-level data usage descriptions — showing where, how, and why data is used. GDPR compliance overviews — quick snapshots of personal data handling and potential compliance considerations. And much more… — from data lineage narratives to impact analysis drafts. All our customers had the need for atomizing their data documentation. They also wanted to get rid of multiple Word and Excel templates and have one entrance for documenting their work with data. And also, they didn’t want the IT-departments to be bottlenecks. They believe in crowd enrichment and democratizing data and data knowledge

Truth Pets

Truth is unconditional love for pets, irresistible taste, yet inexpensive and rebellious against Big Corp. In a world with so much noise and yelling for attention, we are the alternative. Our aim is to offer the very best value. We dare say we do exactly this. Many claim they offer the best products in the world. They all can’t be. We have a different way. The Truth Spoken. Our aim is to offer the very best value. We dare say we do exactly this. Many claim they offer the best products in the world. They all can’t be. We have a different way. We tell it as it is. Searching for the ultimate quality? Then look for brands like Essential Foods* and their equals. Certainly more expensive. That is how it is. Period. But if you look for value without too many compromises, made by people with unconditional love for pets, offering irresistible taste in each bite, and have an opinion about Big Corp and their impact on our world, we just might very well be your best choice. Truth spoken. * More truth spoken: Of course, we love this brand, we share the same offices in many places
