Proptly was founded in 2021 by Kristoffer Gjerde, Gunnar Windsand Sem, and Thomas Kristiansen, with a bold vision to transform the often-overlooked, yet critical, part of the climate tech ecosystem: installations. What started as a casual conversation over Christmas drinks about the headaches of managing contractors, quickly turned into a mission to streamline the installation process for climate tech solutions across Europe. We recognized that while there’s no shortage of companies innovating in the climate tech space—producing world-class EV chargers, heat pumps, and solar panels—the bottleneck often lies in getting these technologies deployed quickly and efficiently. That’s where Proptly comes in. We’ve built a B2B marketplace that connects climate tech companies with a network of skilled, vetted installers, making sure that cutting-edge green technologies reach consumers without the typical delays and frustrations. Think of it like Uber for installations: companies get real-time data on installer performance, response times, and customer satisfaction, allowing them to scale their operations with ease. Revolutionizing the Installation Process Our platform tackles a glaring inefficiency in the market—the installation bottleneck—by ensuring that the best installers, backed by proven performance metrics, are always available to deploy climate tech solutions. For climate tech companies, we’re solving a massive headache: ensuring their innovations get installed, not just built. For contractors, we’re providing consistent job opportunities, helping them grow their businesses in a fast-expanding green economy. With $4 million in seed funding, high-profile partnerships including Easee, Sungrow, and Coop, and a stellar team of industry veterans from companies like Kahoot, Oda, McKinsey, EY, Tesla, and Easee, we’re setting the standard for how climate tech installations should be done. Our Vision Proptly aims to become the leading B2B marketplace for order-to-installation processes across Europe and beyond. With climate tech adoption on the rise, we aim to play a crucial role in accelerating the deployment of these technologies, helping the world transition to a greener future more efficiently. We’re not just about getting the job done; we’re about getting it done right—with transparency, speed, and customer satisfaction at the heart of everything we do.

We are a Norwegian startup with global reach, offering both a no-code/low-code solution for non-technical SMBs and a robust API and SDK for developers, enabling businesses of all sizes and technical capabilities to harness the power of AI. Valma.ai is addressing the challenge of AI underutilization in businesses, spanning from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMBs) to large corporations with in-house development teams. This issue affects companies across various industries, particularly in the Scandinavian market, but is rapidly gaining global recognition.

Valma.ai recognizes that the need for AI-driven productivity spans across the spectrum of technical capabilities, from marketing agencies needing simple automation to tech companies requiring advanced AI integration. Our platform is designed to bridge this gap, offering solutions for both ends of the technical spectrum.

FF Rollerskis AS – Bringing the Real Skiing Feeling to Asphalt FF Rollerskis AS is a Norwegian sports tech company redefining how athletes train off-season by designing and manufacturing world-leading roller skis. Founded by Henrik Lindhagen — skier, inventor, and innovator — our goal is simple: recreate the authentic feeling of skiing on snow, even on asphalt. Traditional roller skis are often stiff, unforgiving, and prone to cause strain or injury due to excessive vibration and poor flexibility. At FF Rollerskis, we’ve reengineered the roller ski from the ground up. Our unique floating fork suspension system and custom-developed rubber compounds drastically reduce vibration while preserving the natural flex and responsiveness of winter skis. The result? Roller skis that feel like the real thing. Our products include the FF V Pro Classic and FF Pro Skate, both equipped with V-groove wheels that enhance directional stability and simulate the resistance of groomed ski tracks. These wheels — along with advanced frame engineering — offer unparalleled ski feel, helping athletes maintain and refine technique throughout the off-season. Our Active series and Junior models make the FF experience accessible for younger athletes and recreational users alike. What sets FF Rollerskis apart: True ski feel on asphalt, with flex and vibration damping unmatched in the market. V-groove wheels that guide the ski naturally, improve control, and make skiing safer — especially for classic technique. Used by top athletes, including members of the Norwegian National Cross-Country Team and elite junior skiers. Only FIS-approved rollerski brand globally. Developed and tested in Norway — under real-world Nordic conditions. We’re committed to environmental responsibility and local production. All development and testing is done in Norway, and our goal is to bring the full manufacturing process home, enabling shorter supply chains, lower emissions, and job creation. Beyond just equipment, FF Rollerskis is building a movement. We offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee, provide free lifetime checkups (only pay for parts), and work closely with ambassadors and users to continuously improve our designs. Our customer base spans from beginners seeking safe, stable skis — to elite athletes demanding the highest performance.

Haato is 'heart' in japanese and the heart is the focus of HATO Medical Technologies. HATO is a MedTech company specializing in heart monitoring and analysis. We have developed an innovative technology that assists healthcare professionals with increasing their qualifications in analyzing and interpreting electrocardiograms (ECG) through 3D visualizations of the heart and data-driven artificial intelligence. According to WHO, heart diseases are the largest killer in the world. Heart diseases and conditions are located and diagnosed with the use of ECG. This heart examination is practiced by General Practitioners, EMTs / Paramedics, Nurses, Doctors, and Cardiologists. Misinterpretation of ECG analysis leads to misdiagnosis, which might lead to fatal consequences for patients and the social economy. A British study estimates that up to 68,5% are misdiagnosed with heart failure. HATO's new digital solution analyzes heart diseases from ECGs using artificial intelligence and machine learning. The software solution increases the foundation of decisions of the healthcare professionals and combines 3D visualizations with our ML models for real-time animation of the patient's heart. All of this will assist healthcare professionals with localizing abnormalities and allow them to react faster at critical events. Innovative and easy. Long story short, the software platform will raise the bottom level of ECG interpretation and give all healthcare professionals a cardiologist by their hand.
