Les Deux

We’re Les Deux, a premium menswear brand that pairs preppy classics with streetwear based out of our world-class HQ in Copenhagen.   At our foundation are three ideas: we always strive for more and are driven by an entrepreneurial spirit, we make clothing for a community where everyone is welcome, and we improve lives by making a difference to that community. We’ve got an ambitious goal of becoming the world’s most impactful lifestyle brand. It’s a big dream, but just because something is difficult doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try to do it anyway. We believe that through hard work, passion, and dedication, anything is possible.

Lapee

Lapee, the female urinal. “Lapee gives women and people who need to pee squatting a quick, safe and hygienic way out.” Urinals for men have been around for a long time, but women and people who need to pee squatting have been long overlooked. For them the need to relieve themselves in public, at events or at festivals always comes with great difficulty. The lines for closed toilet cabins are always long and only two other options present themselves: going without peeing or finding an improvised and unsafe place to pee. Both are highly problematic and degrading. Lapee is a simple solution to a long standing example of gender inequality; Lapee gives women and people who need to pee squatting a quick, safe and hygienic way out. Behind this idea of developing peeing equality are Gina (FR) and Alexander (DK), two architects who graduated from the Royal Danish Academy in Copenhagen in Spring, 2017. They were working as architects for the famous Roskilde Festival when they thought and developed Lapee. Today, Lapee is available for rent in 20 countries through 30 partners. Join the movement!

Small is the new big.

Norlix ApS

At Norlix, we are building a digital insurance and pension brokerage from the ground up. The industry is still defined by manual workflows, legacy systems, and advisory services that only happen periodically. That creates friction and means coverage and risk often lag behind how companies actually evolve. We are building a different model. By combining integrations, structured data, and continuous analysis, we make advisory proactive instead of reactive. In practice, we focus on: • Automated and continuous data collection • Ongoing assessment of risk and coverage • Systematic monitoring of the market • Data driven optimization instead of periodic reviews Our ambition is simple: To make insurance and pension advisory more precise, more transparent, and far less dependent on manual processes. We have raised 30 mio. DKK at the start of 2026, grown to 25+ people, and are building fast with a strong team that genuinely enjoys working together. We are still early, but that is exactly the point. What we build now will define how insurance and pension should work going forward.

PharosBio

PharosBio is building an autonomous AI scientist—a platform and APIs that help biopharma and research teams reduce R&D risk by turning fragmented evidence into decisions across discovery and translation. The problem Despite billions spent on R&D, the research ecosystem runs on incomplete, siloed insight. Around 90% of drug candidates still fail in the clinic, wasting time and capital and delaying therapies for patients. This affects 4.5 million scientists across pharma, biotech, and academia who must constantly decide what to study, why it matters, and whether to proceed—with evidence that’s scattered and stale. Our solution We’re building the first agentic AI built for life sciences: a system that plans, reads, reasons, and writes like a tireless collaborator, and plugs into existing workflows via APIs. What it does • Target discovery & repurposing: surfaces novel targets and repositioning opportunities from literature and data; ranks by mechanism and evidence strength. • Translational go/no-go: aggregates preclinical and clinical signals to support milestone decisions with transparent rationales. • Scientific writing copilot: drafts systematic reviews, grant sections, IND-supporting summaries, and patent landscape briefs with citations. How it fits • Platform + APIs integrate with existing tools and pipelines. • Evidence-first UX: every recommendation is linked to sources; uncertainty is quantified. • Autonomy with control: agents run end-to-end tasks, while scientists supervise, edit, and approve. Outcomes • Faster time to insight, • Fewer dead-ends, • Higher confidence at each stage from early discovery to translation. Our motivation We’re expats who fell in love with Denmark’s research culture and collaborative ecosystem. We started PharosBio because agentic AI is powerful but under-applied where it matters most—healthcare, research, and biotech. Watching promising ideas stall for lack of clear evidence lit the spark: we want to equip every scientist with an always-on partner, so more therapies reach patients - us and our loved ones!

Propane

We've all been in that meeting. The one where everyone has a different take on what to build next. Someone quotes a customer call from last month. Someone else pulls up a support ticket. A third person has a Notion doc nobody else has read. Nothing connects. The decision gets made on gut feel — and you leave the room slightly unsure you got it right. Dennis lived that as a CPO for years. The context never made it to the room. Customer evidence scattered across six tools. Feedback from a €500 account carrying the same weight as a €50k one. Insights from last quarter's research buried before anyone shipped anything. He built Propane because that problem felt embarrassingly solvable — and nobody had solved it. The idea is simple: PMs deserve the same AI-native environment that engineers got with Cursor. A workspace where customer signals, company context, and agents that actually know your product work together — so you spend your time deciding, not searching. Propane connects your stack and builds from there. Signals from real customers, weighted by revenue. A shared surface to reason, write specs, and align the team. Agents that remember what your customers told you last quarter and help you act on it. We're a small team in Vesterbro, Copenhagen — a few minutes from the central station. Flat, direct, and low on process. Everyone owns something real. We hire makers — people who'd rather figure something out than wait to be told how, and who find genuine satisfaction in shipping something that didn't exist last week. Previous founders tend to feel at home here pretty quickly. Pre-seed, backed by people who've built and scaled companies like Lovable, ElevenLabs, Pleo, GameAnalytics, and Neurons. Early days — which means what you build now shapes what this becomes. If you want to shape what it means to be a PM in the age of AI — and you'd rather have real ownership over that than a comfortable title at a bigger company — we'd love to hear from you.

BAIAE

BAIAE is a travel tech startup, inspired by the ancient Roman town known as the birthplace of leisure travel. We help people travel more, travel better, and create unforgettable experiences, through a blend of AI-driven support and premium real-world services. The problem: Travel today is fragmented. Flights are here. Hotels are there. Insurance, claims, and rebooking? Somewhere else. Travelers carry the burden of planning and decision-making while drowning in tabs, choices, and second-guessing. And yes... Agent mode is impressive but raw agents won’t cut it. Travelers need curated experiences, tailored logic, and predefined actions that actually get things done. This is where we plan to win.

BuddyUp Social

BuddyUp Social is a social discovery platform helping adults in Denmark—especially expats and newcomers—find meaningful connections through shared interests and real-life events. We’re solving the problem of adult social isolation by making it easy to create, join, and engage in hobby-based meetups, all through one intuitive app. Making friends as an adult can be surprisingly difficult. Whether you're a Dane moving to a new city or an expat starting fresh in Denmark, it’s common to feel socially disconnected. Many adults don’t know where to start when it comes to meeting new people outside of work, dating apps, or closed social circles. This problem is widespread and well-documented—especially in Denmark, where surveys consistently show that many internationals struggle with social integration, and even locals describe it as awkward to make new friends past a certain age. We’re tackling this head-on by making socializing more accessible, interest-based, and low-pressure. BuddyUp Social is designed to break down the barriers of adult friendship and create opportunities for spontaneous, real-world connection. Whether it’s joining a hike, hosting a board game night, attending a ceramics class, or finding a casual pub quiz crew, BuddyUp is all about connecting people who are "up for it"—with no pressure, no awkward messaging phase, and no algorithms getting in the way. Unlike traditional social platforms focused on digital interaction, BuddyUp is built around real-life meetups. Users can explore and join events happening near them, or create their own. Events can be public or invite-only, recurring or one-off, and are always centered around shared hobbies or interests. The app also welcomes collaborations with local businesses, allowing them to showcase open community events, bringing even more variety and accessibility to users. We’re launching in Denmark first—starting with Copenhagen and Aarhus—before expanding to similar cities across Europe. The idea behind BuddyUp was born from personal experience. As someone who returned to Denmark after years abroad, and with friends struggling to meet people after relocating, it became clear how socially challenging adulthood can be. We kept hearing the same story: “I’d love to meet new people, but I just don’t know how or where.” Instead of settling for outdated forums, clunky Facebook groups, or apps not designed for platonic connection, we decided to build a better solution ourselves. BuddyUp is more than an app—it’s a movement to make adult friendship and community-building normal, easy, and enjoyable again. We’re passionate about creating a product that helps people feel less alone and more empowered to take the first step toward new friendships. We believe that real-life connections are essential for personal happiness and social wellbeing—and we’re here to make those moments happen.
