Elysium Energy

Elysium Energy is building the AI-enabled platform that accelerates energy decentralization by unifying distributed energy resource (DER) projects with developers, capital, and expertise in a marketplace ecosystem. We're eliminating the fragmentation that kills 90% of DER projects by creating a single source of truth across the entire project lifecycle—from concept to operation. We have 5 active design partners across US, UK, and Indonesia, 2 pilot projects converting to paid customers, and have raised $150K SAFE from ERA plus $100K in non-dilutive grants. Our MVP is live and demonstrating 18% CAPEX reduction and 20% OPEX savings for energy projects. We're addressing a $16B software opportunity in the rapidly growing DER market.

Sentiq A/S

Sentiq A/S is a cybersecurity and compliance company based in Aarhus. We help companies improve their IT security and successfully get their IT security certified by internationally recognised standards, including ISO 27001, ISAE 3000 (GDPR), NIS2 and so on. Small and mid-sized business' (SMBs) face same rules, the same cyber threats and increasingly the same expectations to IT security from their customers as large enterprises do. But DMBs have little in-house security competences. This is where Sentiq comes in. We help SMBs improve their IT security and get it certified so they can actively use their IT security as a sales parameter. Our team has more than 30 years of technical and CTO-level experience, including over a decade of security work in the financial sector. We offer the same skills as the large providers, sized and priced for SMBs.

Emballage Indberetning

Emballage Indberetning er en kollektiv ordning, der håndterer producentansvaret for danske virksomheder. Med mere end 3.800 medlemmer er vi Danmarks største kollektive ordning, og vi er de eneste i landet, der dækker alle 8 produktområder. De fleste kollektive ordninger dækker kun ét eller to områder, så en virksomhed med flere produkttyper må være medlem tre forskellige steder, med tre kontrakter, tre sæt satser og tre indberetningsrytmer at holde styr på. Hos os er det ét medlemskab, der dækker hele producentansvaret, og vi bygger vores egen software for at understøtte vores medlemmer bedst muligt. Producentansvar er et miljøprincip: virksomheder får det juridiske og økonomiske ansvar for deres produkters miljøpåvirkning, især når produkterne bliver til affald. Det skubber til mere bæredygtigt design, mere genanvendelse og mindre affald. Godt for planeten, men svært for virksomhederne. De fleste har aldrig hørt om producentansvar, før de pludselig er omfattet, og så møder de et regelsæt skrevet af jurister til jurister. Hvert produktområde (emballage, elektronik, batterier, engangsplast og flere) har sine egne satser, sine egne materialefraktioner og sin egen indberetningsrytme. Det rammer tusindvis af danske virksomheder, og hvert år bliver flere omfattet. Bag hvert fysisk produkt, der bliver indberettet, gemmer der sig mange bevægelige dele. Der skal faktureres, laves stikprøver og indsamles data hver gang en affaldsspand bliver tømt: hvor meget kan genanvendes, og hvad skal brændes? En af vores største opgaver som kollektiv ordning er at indsamle og måle den data og indberette den videre til myndighederne. Derfor bygger vi vores egen software. Ikke for at sælge den, men fordi vores forpligtelser kan automatiseres, når de bliver til kode. Vi startede i januar 2025, fordi producentansvar giver god mening for miljøet, men er indrettet dårligt for de virksomheder, det rammer. Miljøet vinder kun, hvis virksomhederne rent faktisk kan finde ud af at leve op til reglerne. Vores mission er at gøre producentansvar så enkelt og tilgængeligt, at en virksomhed kan overholde det uden at forstå hvert komma i lovgivningen og komme tilbage til sin forretning. På 14 måneder er vi gået fra 2 til 15 medarbejdere.

Joey by Lykkelig AI

What we are building Joey is building the future of autonomous operations for the physical economy. We are developing the first truly vertical, agentic AI platform purpose-built to eliminate administrative revenue leakage for small-to-medium field service, construction, and artisan businesses across the Nordics. Instead of a passive software dashboard that forces users to click buttons, Joey deploys autonomous AI agents that handle the entire customer and administrative lifecycle. From reading and categorizing incoming leads, managing calendars, processing bookings, and generating invoices, to executing project-specific material procurement - Joey handles it entirely on autopilot or via a secure human-in-the-loop workflow. Our core workspace is "Joey Chat" a natural language control center allowing tradesmen to textually query their business infrastructure and trigger live operational actions on the fly. Best of all? We integrate seamlessly as a non-disruptive layer on top of the financial suites they already use daily (like e-conomic, Ordrestyring, Dinero, Billy and more). Our Story & Traction We didn't build Joey in an isolated dark room. For the last 6 months, we ran a high-growth B2B AI consulting agency in Denmark, hand-crafting custom automation workflows for local contractors. The market response was overwhelming: inbound demand far outstripped our physical capacity to build. We quickly realized that building bespoke infrastructure for 1-3 months per client wasn't scalable. Joey is the direct productization of that validated market demand. We are moving our consulting traction straight into a scalable, hyper-disruptive SaaS ecosystem. Why join us? We are a lean, relentless, and product-obsessed founding team backed by early validation. By joining Joey, you aren't building a speculative product looking for a problem - you are building software directly tied to massive, unmanaged market demand. Our Cultural DNA - There is no second place, winning is the ONLY option: We don’t just participate; we compete to dominate. We have a relentless drive for high performance, set exceptionally high bars for ourselves, and celebrate bold, measurable results. We play to win at everything we do - and most importantly, we play to kill and bury the competition. - Radical Customer Empathy: We are fiercely user-obsessed. We build out of deep empathy for the hard-working tradesmen who rely on Joey to run their businesses. We listen intently, put the end-user first in every single discussion, and measure our success by a single metric: the undeniable value and freedom we create for the customer. - Product Obsession: We believe that exceptional engineering and elegant product design solve the world's hardest operational problems. We don't build generic software patches; we build intuitive, robust, and high-impact agentic architectures. We are deeply product-focused, ensuring Joey feels like magic to use.

ChronosHub

Millions of research papers are published every year. They contain discoveries that save lives, protect the planet, and inspire technological breakthroughs. But today, scholarly publishing is coming up against some big challenges. Behind every paper is a tangle of mandates, fees, and licenses. And the systems used to manage these things are outdated. It leaves everyone involved up to their necks in confusing admin. As industry outsiders, we have the chance to take a shake things up. By building a user-friendly platform that simplifies this complexity through great design and powerful integrations. So authors, publishers, institutions, and funders can put their full focus on quality research. We’re an international team headquartered in Copenhagen, with a handful of employees working remotely from elsewhere in Europe and the US.

Atlo

Atlo is a wholesale management platform for lifestyle brands. We help brands prevent lost orders by replacing manual, email-driven workflows with AI-powered sales optimization built specifically for wholesale execution.

Kihleo

Kihleo is a medtech startup developing an early warning system for urinary tract infections in older people with incontinence receiving care at home or in nursing homes. UTIs are one of the most common reasons for acute deterioration, confusion, and hospitalisation in this group. They are challenging to detect early, because symptoms are often vague, many older people cannot clearly communicate discomfort, and home care staff and nurses have minimal time. Today, detection is primarily reactive. Staff notice that something is wrong, then order urine tests and start treatment when the infection is already well underway. This leads to unnecessary suffering, avoidable admissions, and a high use of antibiotics. Kihleo’s solution is a small sensor placed in the diaper that measures biomarkers in the urine every time the person voids. When the diaper is changed, the sensor is read, and data is sent to a secure backend. Algorithms and predictive models analyse patterns over time and provide early, trustworthy indications that an infection may be developing, days before clinical symptoms are usually recognised. The system is not a diagnostic tool. It is a decision-support and early-warning system that integrates into existing workflows and helps staff decide when to look more closely, consult a nurse or doctor, and perform standard diagnostic tests. The value is threefold. For older people, it means faster and more targeted treatment, fewer severe infections, less confusion, and a better day-to-day quality of life. For relatives and care staff, it provides reassurance, objective data, and more time for actual care rather than crisis management. For the public sector, it helps prevent avoidable hospitalisations and complications that are both expensive and resource-intensive. Kihleo is working with a hardware partner on sensor development and is already in dialogue with Danish municipalities about pilot projects. The long-term vision is to create a scalable, data-driven platform for early detection of infections and other complications in elderly care, using everyday materials like diapers as non-invasive data sources.

Nørd Studio ApS

Nørd Studio is a Scandinavian branding and packaging agency based in Copenhagen (we work fully remote). We create human brands that communicate clearly and effectively without resorting to shouting. That last part matters. In a world of loud, trend-chasing designs, we deliberately do things differently. Minimal. Honest. Considered. This is not just an aesthetic choice; it's a philosophy that underpins everything we do, from our design process to our pricing strategy and how we treat the people we work with. We specialise in branding, including logos, visual systems, packaging, stationery and pitch decks. We write copy that sounds human, not like a press release. We also build websites from scratch — no templates or shortcuts, just fast, SEO-ready sites. We're a small studio, and that's intentional. Every client works directly with the people doing the work. Every project receives our full attention. There are no account managers, no handoffs and no diluted output. We're not looking to grow quickly. We want to grow well, with the right people on the right projects.

GERM Bikes

GERM Bikes (Gravel, Electric, Road, Mountain) is an asset-light, tech-driven platform transforming premium bike retail and mobile maintenance. We bridge the gap between high-margin e-commerce and on-demand doorstep service. The Problem: The cycling market has shifted toward heavy electric cargo bikes and premium performance machines. These high-value assets are an absolute nightmare for customers to transport to traditional repair shops, where they face long wait times and unmotivated staff. Meanwhile, corporate mobile competitors are drowning in heavy overhead and corporate debt. The Solution: We vertically integrate the entire customer lifecycle. Customers buy premium bikes directly from our platform, receive expert doorstep assembly/fitting, and stay locked into our ecosystem through smart maintenance subscriptions. By utilizing a database of 130,000+ bike profiles and custom routing software, we run a hyper-efficient, highly profitable operation. To scale rapidly without burning capital on corporate fleets, we leverage a low-barrier franchise model that turns elite mechanics into motivated local owners. GERM Bikes matches traditional shop prices while unlocking massive margins and a predictable, recurring revenue engine.

ÅBEN

ÅBEN was founded in 2017 in Kolding, where it began as a brewery at the childhood farm of Philip Hulgaard. What started as a hobby alongside a full-time job has since grown into a passion and a way of life. After opening its doors on June 9th, 2017, things moved quickly. ÅBEN was named Brewery of the Year in 2019, marking the beginning of an exciting journey. Since then, ÅBEN has created the electronic music festival O Days, founded the beer festival Kalas, and opened bars in Aarhus, Kødbyen, Roskilde, Copenhagen Airport, Carlsberg Byen, and Nordhavn - with more to come. ÅBEN’s first beer, which has since turned into a signature beer, is called Bryg 61 (Brew 61), named after the number of attempts it took to get the recipe exactly right. Today, ÅBEN produces new beers every month which has led to an archive of more than 400 beers, spanning wide from generously hopped IPA’s, and full-bodied imperial stouts to a wide selection of distinctive sours. Most recently, ÅBEN entered the world of non-alcoholic brewing, with the first beer in the series - Y - winning Best Non-Alcoholic Beer in Denmark 2025, and with two more beers in the series on their way. Join the journey and follow ÅBEN at @aabendk and @aabenbryg.
