Trebo

Trebo is a cleantech startup that develops and manufactures a novel fluid-mechanical based plastic sorting technology. The sorting technology enables the plastic industry to sort large-scale plastic-type mixtures and transform the industry’s production waste into valuable resources. The Procurement costs on virgin materials are reduced and the environmental impact from incinerating or dumping plastic waste is eliminated. The annual global production of plastic has in 2019 exceeded more than 300,000,000,000 kg and even though the majority of plastic waste is suited for recycling purposes, more than 90% of the global production of plastic is either incinerated, deposited or dumped in nature. As the production of one kilogram of virgin plastic on average requires three kilograms of natural oil, the plastic industry is a global large-scale consumer of fossil fuels and therefore an important intrant in the green and sustainable changeover of the industry. Due to the wide palette of applications and physical characteristics of plastics, many end-user plastic products consist of one or more different types of plastic. As the quality and application performance of mixed plastic is decreased critically compared to the pure counterpart, plastic mixes are often considered as waste and therefore incinerated or sold to a price significantly lower than the price of the virgin plastic. Industrial waste streams of mixed plastic constitute approximately 60% of the total plastic waste stream. We believe it is critical to develop technologies that effectively sorts and restores the value and physical properties of the virgin plastic. At Trebo, we are environmentalists and our vision is to make the global plastic industry more sustainable and renewable. We hope that you will join us on our adventure.

Its model operates through a licensee-and-partnership structure, in which external organisations under the GSA framework lead several regional programs.

Sisi Copenhagen

Sisi Copenhagen is a Danish direct-to-consumer jewelry brand building lasting jewelry for life's most meaningful moments, sold exclusively through channels we own. Our assortment is broad by design, but within the bridal segment we are expanding fast. No retailers, no marketplaces, no middlemen. Bootstrapped since 2017 and among the fastest-growing brands in the established jewelry scene. The jewelry industry runs on markups, distance, and inertia. Legacy brands stack middleman margins onto every piece, sell through cold and transactional channels where no one is accountable after the purchase, and move slowly in an industry that rarely questions how it operates. The result: jewelry that costs more than it should, bought through experiences that feel impersonal at exactly the moments that matter most, an engagement, an anniversary, a gift meant to say what words can't. We think the people buying jewelry for the meaningful moments in their lives deserve better than that. We own the entire chain. We design our own pieces and work directly with the best workshops in the world, so there are no supply-chain middlemen inflating the price. We sell only through our own channels, which means every relationship is direct: the person who advises on a diamond ring and the person who handles a question afterward both work at Sisi Copenhagen. Operations, customer service, and marketing are run in-house, with focused external support where it makes sense. We're also spearheading lab-grown diamonds, the best current vehicle for offering fine jewelry at honest prices, and we treat experience as a core differentiator. We're constantly building better ways to buy jewelry across both the digital and physical space, from the online journey to in-store and video consultations. Experience innovation is where a lot of our energy goes. This is a lean, owned, constantly refined model. Revenue grew from 6M to roughly 75M DKK in four years, we've won four consecutive Gazelle Awards, and we've done all of it with zero external funding. That independence is a deliberate strategy: we grow on our own terms, reinvest in the business, and answer to our customers rather than investors. Sisi started with Vivi, who grew up around her mother's jewelry trade and built the company alone for years: full-time job by day, the business by night, her own money on the line. Christian joined from the entrepreneurial side, drawn to building something from nothing. We've grown the brand through the same milestones it marks for others: partnership, parenthood, building a home. We lead without hierarchy and hire people who want real ownership over what they build, whether that's shaping how the company runs or architecting the systems and processes behind it. If you're curious, self-driven, and want to see your work land directly on the business, you'll fit here.

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 🤘
