SGC - Arena

✅ 1: Short description (the pitch) SGC Arena is developing a combined TCG retail store, gaming lounge and community-driven event center to help youth, families and adult gamers find a safe, engaging and social space to play, compete and belong. We solve the lack of modern, inclusive gaming- and hobby environments by offering a 655 m² hybrid hub built around TCG, esport, community events and structured activities, powered by strong partnerships, low inventory risk and a highly scalable franchise-ready model. ✅ 2: The What – The problem we are solving Across Denmark, young people and adult hobby enthusiasts lack safe, structured and inspiring spaces to gather around gaming, TCG and shared interests. Most environments are either too small, too informal or lacking supervision, creating a gap between commercial gaming cafés and traditional youth facilities. At the same time, parents struggle to find positive, healthy gaming communities for their children, while hobby players (Pokémon, Magic, Lorcana) lack dedicated spaces for trading, events and tournaments. This problem affects: Children and teens seeking social belonging Adults looking for hobby communities Parents who want structured and safe gaming spaces TCG players who currently lack large-scale physical hubs Municipalities who need modern, engaging offers for youth Retail customers who want combined experiences, not just shops The demand is widespread and growing. TCG, gaming and event-based hobby retail are among the fastest-growing entertainment segments in Europe. Yet Denmark remains underserved with almost no large-scale hybrid centers combining retail, gaming, community and structured activities. SGC Arena fills this gap. ✅ 3: The How – How we solve it SGC Arena provides a 655 m² multi-zone environment combining: A full-service TCG retail store (Pokémon, Magic, Lorcana etc.) A high-end gaming lounge with esport setups A large event area for tournaments, competitions and community gatherings A social “hobby lounge” for trading, crafting and relaxed gaming A forening-driven model with daily structured activities Weekend programs with 500–1.000 visitors Consignationsaftaler reducing inventory risk dramatically A scalable operations manual and franchise blueprint for expansion to 3–8 locations Each weekday features structured activities through our association: Esport teams (20 participants daily) Hobby/TCG clubs (up to 40 per session) Weekends host large-scale TCG events, family activities, adult gaming evenings and trading meetups — creating predictable, high-volume traffic. The concept is built to scale: simple operational procedures, strong supplier partnerships, low-risk inventory, and a community-first structure that can be replicated nationally. ✅ 4: The Why – Our motivation SGC Arena is founded by Heinrich Dam Jensen, former owner of the esports organization Dream Gaming in Rødovre Centrum, where he built a strong and healthy gaming community in 2020. When COVID forced that project to close, it sparked a deep understanding of what young people and hobby-focused adults truly need: a safe, structured, social and modern environment that supports healthy gaming behavior and real-world connections. The vision has grown stronger since. Heinrich has a background in police, defence, leadership and youth work, and has seen firsthand how powerful gaming and structured hobbies can be when given the right environment. This is the foundation of SGC Arena: creating Denmark’s leading chain of gaming- and TCG-based community hubs. The motivation is simple: to give youth, families and adult hobbyists a place to belong — and to build a scalable, commercially strong concept that brings community and business together.

Frank Founders

Frank Founders is built for one thing: creating pipeline and growth for B2B SaaS companies through digital marketing. We work with ambitious SaaS teams and take ownership of the strategy and execution needed to drive real revenue. We’re part of the Frank Agency Collective - a group of small, specialized agencies that each operate in a narrow segment and focus on measurable outcomes in their domain. The goal is simple: be the obvious choice for a very specific type of client, and irrelevant to everyone else. Frank Founders is a micro-agency with 100% focus on B2B SaaS. That means you work close to the business: you lead strategy, drive execution, and stay close to the numbers. We expect people to take charge, make decisions, and treat client challenges as their own - and in return, we offer a high degree of freedom, trust, and ownership. Our culture is shaped by three principles: 01 Same side of the table - We work with clients as one team, with shared goals and clear accountability. 02 One size fits nobody - We use proven methods, but always tailor them to the company’s stage, priorities, and commercial reality. 03 Process drives progress - We rely on clear structures, frameworks, and testing to turn complexity into momentum and measurable growth. Day to day, that means a lot of sparring, open feedback (“frankly speaking” is part of how we work), and a strong focus on craft. We share knowledge, clients, and responsibilities across the team and are based in Talent Garden on Holmen in Copenhagen, surrounded by other startups and scaleups.

Beyond its expertise in design and manufacturing, Monopulse is deeply committed to research and development. The company collaborates with leading universities and research institutes to remain at the forefront of innovations in communication technologies, sensor fusion, and the integration of computer vision and artificial intelligence in unmanned aerial vehicles. A key focus of its R&D efforts is developing solutions that enable uninterrupted missions in heavily contested electronic warfare environments—achieved either through resilient communication links or advanced autonomy that allows drones to operate independently when signals are disrupted.

Tapp

Tapp is developing a software-only POS suite—tap-on-phone payments, eshop self-order, Native AI data platforms, and AI-assisted menu/setup - to help small UK service businesses ditch expensive hardware POS, solve slow service and rising operating costs, and stay compliant by default, powered by our ultra-fast UX, AI onboarding, leading AI features, and embedded payments. Independent cafés, massage parlors, and any other service spots are squeezed by hardware terminals, clunky back-office flows, and staffing shortages—which translates to slower turnover, longer queues, and lost revenue. Operators also face VAT/receipt/tips complexity and card-data obligations that traditional POS doesn’t simplify. The market is crowded, but legacy and “one-size-fits-all” tools still mean slow UI, multi-minute setup, and rigid pricing. Our analysis of UK-relevant providers shows many still require dedicated hardware or fragmented QR solutions—creating cost, training, and integration friction for small teams. Whilst providing insights on all the data collected, without the user having to ask. Tapp replaces boxes and paper with a phone-first POS: - Tap-to-Pay on iPhone & Android: take contactless cards/Wallets directly on staff or owner smartphones—no reader required. Fully productised in our “Staff” flow. - QR self-order, eshop & pay: guests scan, order, tip, and receive receipts digitally; staff stay focused on giving the best service, not card machines. - AI onboarding & menu import: snap a menu or upload a file; Tapp auto-parses categories/items, generates a store description, and lets owners tweak with guardrails (VAT, pricing, tags, duration). - Built-in compliance for UK SMBs: support for e-receipts, VAT invoice scenarios, and transparent tip/service handling—plus card-data best-practice via our payments stack. - Embedded payments on Adyen: unified acquiring, wallet rails, refunds/chargebacks, payouts, and potential embedded finance/share—with clear IC++ economics and SoftPOS fees. - Elite performance: our internal tests show UX runs 2.7× faster LCP and 3.3× less blocking than a leading competitor—keeping staff in “flow” during rush. Why this wins: zero hardware CAPEX, minutes-not-weeks deployment, faster service cycles, and fewer receipt/VAT/tips headaches—all in a single app the team already knows how to use (their phone). Feature depth is production-ready across signup/KYC, menu, staff, orders, payout views, and refunds per our shipped user stories. Whilst (soon) providing industry-breaking intelligence to make the small merchants play in the big leagues. We started Tapp after watching small venues spend too much on terminals and too long wrestling slow software—only to still miss orders at peak. We dug into the UK compliance tangle (VAT, receipts, tips) and saw a chance to bake the rules into the workflow, not bolt them on. Then we validated the experience with hard performance data and a best-in-class payments partner so owners can serve more customers with less kit and less stress. That’s why we’re doing this: give time back to small operators with a POS that is fast, compliant, and delightfully simple.

Vi specialiserer os i unikke, programmerbare LED-pixel displays og RGB-lamper, der kan tilpasses med pixel art, animationer, tekst og visuelle effekter via app-styring. Vores sortiment omfatter også gaming-gear, Dungeons & Dragons-inspirerede produkter og udvalgte nørdegadgets, som kombinerer funktionalitet, æstetik og underholdning. Problemet vi løser Markedet for nørdekultur og tech-gadgets i Danmark er fragmenteret. Mange produkter er enten: Dårligt oversat/importeret uden dansk support. Kun tilgængelige fra udenlandske webshops med lange leveringstider, høje fragtomkostninger og ingen garanti. Lavkvalitets kopiprodukter uden dokumentation eller ordentlig kundeservice. For tech-interesserede, gamere og kreative sjæle betyder det, at man ofte skal gå på kompromis med kvalitet, service og tryghed, når man vil købe unikke produkter – især hvis man ønsker nichevarer som programmerbare LED-displays eller D&D-merchandise. Vores løsning Nerdværket løser dette ved at: Tilbyde nøje udvalgte, kvalitetsgodkendte produkter – testet for funktion, holdbarhed og brugervenlighed. Garantere hurtig levering i Danmark – uden lange ventetider eller skjulte toldgebyrer. Skabe lokal support og vejledninger – med dansk produktbeskrivelse, guides og videoinstruktioner. Kombinere tech og kreativitet – med produkter, der både er praktiske, dekorative og en del af nørdkulturen. Kurateret sortiment – vi udvælger kun produkter, vi selv ville bruge, hvilket sikrer autenticitet og relevans. Hvorfor Nerdværket? Vi er selv en del af målgruppen – passionerede nørder, gamere og tech-entusiaster. Vi forstår, hvad kunderne leder efter, og vi ved, hvor frustrerende det er at skulle importere produkter uden at vide, om de lever op til forventningerne. Med Nerdværket får kunderne: Tryghed gennem danske retur- og reklamationsregler. Personlig service fra folk, der kender produkterne. Eksklusivitet via produkter, som ikke findes i almindelige butikker. Fællesskab gennem events, guides og sociale medier, hvor vi deler pixel art, setup-inspiration og nørd-nyheder. Marked og målgruppe Vi retter os mod tre primære segmenter: Tech-entusiaster – der elsker gadgets, smarte lysløsninger og digital kreativitet. Gamere & streamere – der vil optimere deres setup med visuelt imponerende elementer. Nørdekultur-fællesskabet – D&D-spillere, cosplayere og kreative sjæle, som ønsker at udtrykke deres passion visuelt. Vision Vi ønsker at være Danmarks foretrukne brand inden for tech-gadgets og nørdekultur. Vores mål er ikke bare at sælge produkter, men at bygge et fællesskab – et sted, hvor teknologi, kreativitet og passion mødes. På længere sigt ønsker vi at udvide med: Egne produktlinjer inden for LED-pixel displays og nørdegadgets. Workshops og events for DIY-entusiaster. Fysiske pop-up butikker ved messer og events i Danmark. Hvorfor nu? Markedet for LED-pixel displays, nørdegadgets og custom gaming gear er i vækst – drevet af streamingkultur, TikTok-trends, e-sports popularitet og en stigende interesse for personlig indretning med tech. Ved at kombinere lokal tilstedeværelse, hurtig levering og autentisk produktudvalg, kan Nerdværket udfylde et hul på det danske marked og samtidig opbygge en stærk brandloyalitet. 📌 Kort sagt: Nerdværket gør det nemt og trygt at få fingrene i unikke tech-gadgets og LED-pixel displays i Danmark – uden kompromis på kvalitet, levering eller service. Vi er her for at give lys, farver og kreativitet til alle, der elsker teknologi og nørdekultur.
