Dr. Stevens Pillow

My name is Steven John Widecrantz. I am a Urologist at Sealand University Hospital in Roskilde Denmark. For 16 years I have been treating Kidney Cancer Patients, but in recent years I have also been in charge of postoperative complications and seriously ill patients in my department and lately also in the treatment of Corona-patients. In this capacity, I have encountered patients so weakened by months of inactivity in bed, that former healthy patients couldn’t stand on their own feet or even sit up by means of their own. They had an immense loss of muscle-mass and the malnutrition even affected their brain function. Training and mobilizing these patients is difficult and time consuming. To overcome some of these obstacles I invented the “Dr. Stevens Pillow”-system. It is made up of a system of pillows with different resistance, carefully selected in collaboration with experienced physiotherapists to meet the requirements at the different stages of the patients recovery. The pillow is placed in the foot end of the patients bed and the patient, the staff and the patients family are instructed in different exercises by the physiotherapist. The pillow can then be placed in the bed by the patient, the staff or by the family whenever the patient feels like training or when encouraged to do so, supplementing the daily training by the physiotherapist. The pillows will, with the right instruction, strengthen the patients foot-, calf- and thigh-muscles, and it will strengthen the buttocks, the stomach-muscles and the back-muscles. Secondary to strengthening the muscles, the training improves blood circulation thereby improving muscle-nutrition, wound-healing and the heart. Training also aids in prevention of blood-clots. Lung function is improved, lung problems prevented, and more oxygen provided to the bloodstream. Bedsores will also be prevented or healing improved. The patients appetite is improved providing building materials for muscles and healing, and nausea is prevented. Psychologically the patient is strengthened by being activated opposed to lying inactive in bed all day. The possibility to influence their own recovery will motivate the patients to train more. When the patient is exhausted, the pillow is just removed, and the patient can rest. The pillows are made of durable materials that can withstand daily use, and the fabric is hospital standard and easy to wash and disinfect for use for the next patient. No handles are added to ensure easy and safe cleaning. The weight makes them easy to transport. The pillows come in four different colors: Green for the weakest patients. Blue for patients that can sit, but not stand. Red for patients that can stand with the help of a roller. Black for patients that are able to walk a few steps, but still need to build strength. The Black pillow can even be used at home, where it can also be used as a step-machine, a training bench and much more. The size make it easy to store in a wardrobe. The “Dr. Stevens Pillow”-system is so simple to use, inexpensive and versatile, that it can be used in almost any setting: Hospitals around the world, Refugee-camps, Retirement-homes, Hospices etc.

Supplybase ApS

Supplybase is a platform which streamlines activities related to outsourcing of part manufacturing. If you can order your favourite pizza online in 5 minutes - why does it then have to be such a time-consuming and frustrating process to order a piece of lasercut metal or a 3D printed prototype? While the B2C industry is becoming increasingly digitalized, utilizing data to optimize inventory, product flow and customer engagement, the B2B industry is lagging behind. This is especially true within the industrial order-producing companies, where many companies have little online presence, and in the industry, only 19% have websites with online purchase options. The ambition of Supplybase is to become a multisided platform, where purchasers, engineers and hobbyists can identify, trade with, and review the many order-producing suppliers of metal, plastic, and 3D printed parts. This is done by improving the process from identification and request for quotation, to purchase and repurchase in an easy and streamlined online experience. Using this platform, the order producing companies can capture and use their own data, gathered during the quotation/purchase/repurchase process, in an easily understandable manner. How do we achieve this? We start by creating a searchable platform. The we build the tools to help both sides of the transaction, to achieve a smooth purchase process. Supplybase is founded by Sebastian Schlicker based on his experiences when dealing with order producing companies within metal and 3D printing, through his work as a Mechanical Development Engineer and Product Manager in the robotics industry in Odense. SEARCHING FOR TECHNICAL CO-FOUNDER – Are you located in Odense? Are you interrested in start-ups? Do you want to help build a scalable company? Do you feel the urge to start your own entrepreneurial journey? Write Sebastian Schlicker today! We accept inquiries from other roles as well. Contact us to hear more.

Poikilingo

Poikilingo is developing a language learning app for small children (2 - 6 years old), where social and cultural awareness are at the heart of our concept. Our program focuses on the cultural aspects of the language being learned, as we believe that cracking the social code is as important as learning vocabulary and pronunciation. This promotes a sense of belonging which will positively impact the child's learning process. Each child is unique, so each of them deserves a study program that takes into consideration their peculiarities. The customized study plan that childre get at Poikilingo mixes activities, videos, songs and games, and if the child makes mistakes, she gets feedback in her native tongue. We follow a consolidated learning approach that teaches different subjects through the language, all created by educational experts and aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. But the game-changing experience that Poikilingo brings into the market is based on animated stories where an avatar of the child goes through everyday situations that children go through, including when they move to a new country and have to start into a new kindergarten.

PESITHO ApS

PESITHO Pesitho is a Danish based enterprise, committed to providing affordable and clean energy solutions for cooking to marginalized and vulnerable people around the world. We have developed the ECOCA solar powered electric cook stove, to meet the daily cooking and energy needs to families living in off grid areas. Pesitho has established a locally run co-operative outside of the Bidibidi Refugee Settlement in Northern Uganda, from where stoves are assembled, distributed, and serviced by refugee residents and members of the host community. The company was founded in 2018 and has a combined experience of more than 30 years in the renewable energy industry. The Problem we are solving Currently, 4 billion people around the world lack access to clean, efficient, and affordable access to energy for cooking. Polluting fuels and technologies for cooking have a detrimental impact of health, nutrition, gender, and the environment, hindering the process of a sustainable development, in many cases, in already fragile settings. The lack of progress in clean cooking, reportedly costs the world more than $2.4 trillion each year, driven by adverse impacts on health, climate, and gender equality. Left unaddressed, communities will continue face multiple adverse consequences, that are further amplified by poverty, climate change and future global pandemics. To solve this problem Providing access to an affordable and sustainable technology for cooking with the ECOCA solar powered electric cook seeks to address energy security not just for cooking but also to reduce environmental issues like deforestation, pollution, also gender inequality and poverty. Research and design for our stove was conducted with residents of the Bidibidi Refugee Settlement in Northern Uganda, where pilot testing permitted additional adjustments, allowing for a stove specifically designed to meet the cooking needs of vulnerable groups of people living in off grid areas. The ECOCA comes with a solar panel, insulated 6l cooking pot, 1 LED rechargeable household lamp, 1 LED rechargeable torch and USB ports for charging small items. Studies conducted with end users by organizations such as Caritas and World Food Program, have shown improvements to overall health and wellbeing, reducing exposure to harmful pollutants from smoke and usage of firewood, improvements in taste of food, income generation from USB port charging station and hours saved from collecting firewood being reinvested in education and skills training. The Spark Pesitho was founded on the belief that all should be able to have access to modern clean energy for cooking. Seeing a map over Africa showed that a large portion of the continent is without access to modern energy. This sparked a willingness to learn why. Understanding the why lead to the understanding of scale of lacking modern energy in that region of the world. While other continents where mowing a positive direction in relation to rural electrification sub Sarah Africa is still mowing in the wrong direction with the number of people living without access to electricity growing. This knowledge inspired the team to pursue the development of the ECOCA, off grid E-cooker

The Wilde Shop

HISTORY: The idea came a year ago, after a few years of owning & running a successful women's designer vintage clothing store in Copenhagen. Observed how COVID19 affected consumer spending and surge in e-commerce. Inquiries about alternative payment solutions. Consistent increased sales, consumer excitement and interest focused on luxury branded bags. THE BUSINESS IDEA IN A NUTSHELL: Building a community-driven marketplace, facilitating buying and trading exclusive luxury designer bags, thus empowering members within a circular retail model, run by female entrepreneurs. PROBLEM, SOLUTIONS AND VALUE CREATION: People are looking for designer luxury bags, especially in Denmark. The consumer market for luxury bags is a 2.4 USD billion industry worldwide. However, current options for luxury bags can be expensive or “cheap”, low quality unverified or unqualified resellers. Alternatively, they are fakes or non-sustainable high street options. Sustainability awareness is forecast to increase in luxury fashion. Furthermore, there is an increased preference to trusted brands. Through our platform, we give access to luxury! Our goal is to amplify an existing & growing community. Key to success will be inclusivity and access, giving all income group consumers across Denmark a platform to buy, rent, sell and trade their luxury items. Through paid membership tiers, we provide early access to events, sales, discounts and financial incentives. We provide consumers from different income brackets access to luxury items via new financial incentives eg. rental, monthly instalments and exchange initiatives COVID has increased e-commerce spend. It has also decreased small brand sales and increased luxury brand focus. This change in mindset is accelerating the sustainable fashion trends. The market share for vintage and second hand industry has increased exponentially the last few years and expected to overtake consumer spending on new fashion in the next decade. We want to offer an affordable solution - new ways of shopping, giving access to luxury products and building a digital community.
