Sustainly

Sustainly is the scalable single-source of truth for non-financial data. We use AI and automations to perform cumbersome data-related tasks across environmental insights (EPDs, LCAs, Carbon footprints), supply chain, documentation and much more. Our goal is to simplify and democratize access to environmental insights, to empower decision makers to make more holistic decisions. Today, performing life-cycle assessments is a highly academic discipline, which acts as a major gatekeeper for properly utilizing data, and getting a proper return of investment. In addition to make it more easy to arrive at the results, we also empower companies to actually utilize the data as a trustworthy, single-source of truth across all business units. This means that the data can create value, directly in R & D, sales, marketing, management and more.

Liva Healthcare

Liva is a platform and app for people living with chronic diseases such as obesity, kohl, diabetes and cardiovascular disease.The Liva team has previously created NetDoktor and other successful startups in the health sector, and now they’re eager to disrupt the market and offer more lifestyle-related treatment than regular healthcare does, moving away from purely medical treatment traditions. This happens through advanced digital personal guidance, lifestyle and disease tracking, user forum etc. We’re a small, dedicated team of skilled individuals, and we’re very flexible. Since knowledge sharing is the easiest when working in one room, we’ve agreed to work as much as possible from the office. If we can’t hire the best of the best people, we often prefer outsourcing our tasks.We place the social element at the heart of Liva, with a blast of a Christmas lunch (this year taking place at the Tivoli amusement park) and regular team dinners too. We set quarterly goals, and upon fulfilling them we celebrate by traveling together, going for luxury dining or the like. A startup like Liva is very uncomplicated and all individuals get a lot of decision making power.The need for our platform is here, this is clear since many customers have signed up before our actual product has launched - some have even told us they’ve been waiting for a product like this for 10 years.

Treesy ApS

Treesy ApS er en dansk climate tech-startup, der gør det nemt, billigt og gennemskueligt for privatpersoner og virksomheder at tage konkret klimahandling gennem træplantning i Tanzania. Mange mennesker og virksomheder ønsker at gøre noget for klimaet, men oplever i dag, at løsningerne er uoverskuelige, dyre, abstrakte eller svære at stole på. Samtidig vokser både klima- og biodiversitetskrisen, og behovet for skalerbare, troværdige og handlingsorienterede løsninger er større end nogensinde. Treesy er skabt for at fjerne barriererne for klimahandling. Vi tilbyder en enkel abonnementsbaseret model, hvor kunder planter træer som en konkret måde at reducere og balancere deres klimaaftryk. Vores tilgang er baseret på konservative beregninger, radikal transparens og lokal forankring. Alle træer plantes i samarbejde med lokale partnere i Tanzania og bliver: • individuelt geo-tagget • monitoreret mindst fire gange årligt • passet og genplantet i op til tre år efter plantning Vi planter et diversificeret mix af træer med fokus på både klima, biodiversitet og lokal økonomi. Det betyder, at vores indsats ikke kun handler om CO₂, men også om at styrke økosystemer, skabe lokal indkomst og opbygge mere robuste lokalsamfund gennem agroforestry og frugttræer. Treesy adskiller sig ved at kombinere: • lav pris pr. træ • høj grad af transparens • direkte lokal tilstedeværelse • individuel geo-tagging af træer • en bevidst fravalg af dyre certificeringssystemer til fordel for direkte dokumentation Vores ambition er at gøre klimahandling tilgængelig for alle — og samtidig sikre, at indsatsen skaber reel, målbar og langsigtet impact. Treesy er stiftet af iværksættere med mange års erfaring fra udviklingsarbejde i Afrika og et stærkt lokalt netværk. Vi tror på, at ægte forandring skabes, når klima, biodiversitet og social udvikling tænkes sammen i én samlet løsning. Vores mission er enkel: At gøre det så nemt og gennemskueligt som muligt at give mere tilbage til planeten, end man tager.

Unioo

Unioo is building a digital compliance and board management platform to help financial institutions and voluntary associations handle complex regulatory reporting—simply, securely, and without friction. 1. What problem are we solving? Associations in Europe are required by law to submit complex KYC and AML documentation to their financial institutions. This process is often confusing, paper-based, and time-consuming—especially for small, volunteer-run associations. At the same time, banks are struggling to comply with increasingly strict regulations without overloading internal teams or alienating nonprofit customers. 2. How are we solving it? Unioo provides a secure, plug-and-play digital platform where associations can easily complete their mandatory bank reporting. At the same time, they gain access to a suite of free digital board tools—meeting management, task tracking, file sharing and more. Banks receive fully compliant data packages with no internal resource strain. Associations stay compliant while benefiting from better tools for managing their boards. 3. Why are we doing this? We started Unioo as volunteers ourselves. We saw how much time was wasted on outdated processes, and how legal changes (like AML) were turning volunteer work into a bureaucratic burden. Then we realized: we could help both associations and banks by offering one unified solution—tailored for the unique needs of volunteer boards and aligned with financial institutions' regulatory requirements. 4. Why join us? We’re a fast-growing Danish startup backed by strong investors, trusted by 25+ financial institutions, and used by thousands of associations. Our team is small but ambitious—and deeply motivated by the impact we make. If you’re excited about simplifying bureaucracy, building elegant solutions, and empowering civil society, we’d love to meet you.

Halmos ApS

Halmos is building the world’s first digital resilience platform focused on heartbreak recovery and emotional fitness. While dating apps invest billions in helping people find love, almost no one is building structured solutions for what happens when love ends. Yet breakups are one of the most emotionally destabilising life events — impacting mental health, productivity, physical well-being, and self-worth. Halmos addresses this overlooked gap. We combine psychology, digital rituals, gamification, and emotion AI to guide users through a structured emotional recovery journey — transforming heartbreak into growth. Instead of suppressing pain or endlessly venting, users build resilience through reflection, insight, and measurable emotional progress. Our long-term vision goes beyond breakups. We are building emotional fitness as a lifelong skill — helping people navigate love, loss, rejection, and life transitions with strength and self-awareness. We believe resilience can be trained. And heartbreak can be transformed into heartstrong.

Responsibly

Responsibly is a sustainability tech start-up with vision of making every purchase in the world responsible 🌍 There's no bigger problem out there than the climate, and procurement represents a big part of the solution - when purchase decisions are made on the background of responsible data like CO2 footprint, suppliers have a huge incentive to change. However, procurement is becoming overloaded with complexity. Different frameworks, different data sources, different coverage, making it difficult to make purchase decisions to improve your responsibility profile and scope 3 emissions. At Responsibly, we're trying to solve this issue by using leading technologies and data science, to build a supplier data platform that makes it easier to source responsibly. We're founded by two serial entrepreneurs with previous successes like Dixa and Ofload, and have received pre-seed funding from some of Europe's top VCs and angels. We're now building a top-tier team to tackle this big thing called climate, and have fun while we're doing it 🤘
