CM Navigator A/S – part of Copenhagen Merchants Group - is the company behind the digital platform for market intelligence and decision support in the agri-commodity and freight sectors – CM Navigator. Founded by Copenhagen Merchants Group, CM Navigator was initially developed in-house (starting around 2018) to aggregate the wealth of tacit market knowledge held by the group’s brokers and shipping experts. It was subsequently launched as a commercial SaaS platform in 2022 and later incorporated as an independent company in 2023 (while remaining majority-owned by CM Group). What it offers: CM Navigator provides real-time data and analytics tools to track commodity markets and logistics: • Live Prices & Global Benchmarks: Users get daily updated prices from major export regions (North America, South America, Europe, Black Sea, Australia, etc.) and a global CFR price matrix covering 600+ destinations, allowing easy comparison of origin competitiveness. This helps traders see, for example, how US corn fob prices plus freight compare to Brazilian corn into a given import market. • Freight Forecasting: The platform includes advanced freight tools that let users search among 250,000+ bulk freight routes with up to 12-month forward curves. This essentially functions as an instant freight rate calculator: a trader can input a specific load port and discharge port (or even a combination for multi-leg trades) and get current freight cost estimates and future rates. Such capability, drawn from Navi Merchants’ data, simplifies evaluating the delivered cost of commodities. • Supply/Demand & Trade Flows: CM Navigator continuously updates global supply and demand balances for key crops, and tracks trade flows. It integrates official data with on-the-ground insights (e.g., port line-up information) to give an up-to-date picture of export/import volumes and stock levels. This dynamic data can alert users to changes (such as a sudden surge in Ukrainian wheat exports or a drought cutting Argentine soy supply) much faster than traditional reports. • News & Insights: The platform delivers relevant news flashes and in-house analysis. For instance, it might highlight policy changes, weather events, or logistical issues affecting markets, along with commentary from CM’s analysts. Users also receive reports like grain export summaries or freight market outlooks, helping them stay ahead in volatile markets. Strategic purpose: The creation of CM Navigator reflects the group’s goal to “empower traders of all sizes in all countries” by democratizing access to high-quality market data. It takes the tacit knowledge that Copenhagen Merchants accumulated (through decades of brokerage and logistics operations) and scales it via technology. Internally, the platform ensures CM’s own teams and key clients operate with the same up-to-date information. Externally, it has become a new revenue stream and value proposition, attracting subscribers from the wider industry. By providing transparency and decision-support, CM Navigator strengthens Copenhagen Merchants Group’s role as an information broker. Its strategic goal is to be the go-to platform for anyone looking for integrated data on grains and freight, thereby enhancing market efficiency and extending the group’s influence in the digital domain.

Advancing UXO Detection through Drone Innovation At Dropla Tech ApS, we believe that sensor fusion and AI hold immense potential to transform the detection and removal of unexploded ordnance (UXO). Developing autonomous drone systems that integrate the latest: • Multispectral sensors to rapidly scan the land and precisely locate UXO underground • Machine learning algorithms that fuse data from multiple layers to identify anomalies indicating potential explosive hazards • High-resolution 3D mapping capabilities to generate high-precision georeferenced maps marking UXO hotspots and safe zones to guide safe and efficient removal Latest data cleaning and processing techniques enable our drones to cover territory much faster - making surveys up to 10x more efficient. We realize true impact requires more than technology alone. That's why Dropla researchers: • Collaborate closely with demining groups to ensure our drone solutions meet real-world needs • Contribute data and insights back to the community through open dataset initiatives that advance the broader UXO detection field Our true north will always be the same: to harness technological progress for good by helping rid conflict zones of unexploded threats and giving communities an opportunity to rebuild.

Monto is developing a cutting-edge rental platform to help individuals and businesses rent items, making access to resources easy and sustainable with a user-friendly platform. We are tackling the issue of underutilized resources and overconsumption. This problem affects both individuals and businesses, leading to unnecessary waste and environmental impact. Many items are only used sporadically, resulting in a significant carbon footprint. This problem is widespread across various industries and communities. Monto offers a digital marketplace where private users and businesses can list and rent out their gear and equipment. By providing a platform that streamlines communication, transactions, and rental processes, Monto empowers people to rent what they need instead of buying, reducing waste and encouraging a more sustainable lifestyle. Our user-friendly platform ensures a seamless rental experience for everyone involved. The idea for Monto originated from witnessing the growing issue of overconsumption and its environmental impact. We realized that the sharing economy could play a crucial role in addressing this problem. The desire to make a positive impact on the planet and promote sustainable practices fueled our determination to build Monto. We quit our day jobs to focus on this entrepreneurial journey because we believe that facilitating the sharing of resources can lead to a greener and more efficient world, benefitting both individuals and the environment.

REIMAGINE Launch and sell products, before building them. Creating a consumer product and finding a market-fit can be an expensive process, if you do it post-production. We use pre-production visualization, through social media marketing, to analyse and confirm market engagement, before starting an expensive production. We help startups find their full product potential, through highly detailed marketing visuals, to either ensure funding, investor interest, stakeholder acknowledgement or crowdsourcing. BECOME PART OF A UNIQUE PRODUCT DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT CULTURE.  We like to think that we have a culture like no one else, focused on creating the most insightful products, by letting people be creative on their own merits. Though we all have a different perspective on design and creativity, it is part of us all, as it is the life blood in every task performed. From algorithms and mathematical breakthroughs, to emotional and artistic experiences, we are all creative people. The ability to be creative, is the ability to be smart, intuitive and job efficient.  We do not reinvent the wheel – instead – we adopt, adapt and aspire towards better solutions, building upon the achievements of others, matching trending market patterns. We see further than others, because we stand upon the shoulders of giants.  Design is not a matter of taste, it’s a business. Design is not a result, it’s a process. Design is not a product, it’s a service. Our design ideology is rooted in business insights, technology exploration, pattern analysis and highly motivated energy.
