Improve Performance International AS is a Norwegian software and consulting company that has spent more than 30 years helping organizations improve leadership, sales performance, employee development, recruitment, and organizational growth. The Problem We Solve Most organizations invest significant resources in strategy development, training programs, leadership development, recruitment, and change initiatives. However, many struggle with one critical challenge: They cannot consistently turn plans into measurable and documented results. Common challenges include: Leadership training that inspires but does not create lasting behavioral change. Sales training where participants return to old habits after the course. Lack of visibility into whether employees are improving their skills and performance. Difficulty measuring the return on investment (ROI) of training and development initiatives. Recruitment processes that focus on CVs and interviews rather than documented competencies and development potential. Managers lacking tools to systematically follow up goals, activities, and progress. Our Solution We have developed two complementary platforms: 1. Improve Performance & Training System (IPTS) A cloud-based performance management and training platform that helps organizations: Assess current competencies and performance. Define strengths, weaknesses, goals, and KPIs. Create personalized development plans. Deliver structured training and coaching programs. Track activities, milestones, and progress. Measure and document improvement over time. Our methodology is built around the PROVE Framework: Plan → Run → Optimize → Validate → Expand This ensures that development initiatives move beyond training events and become measurable improvement processes. 2. Improve Job Portal (IJP) An AI-powered recruitment and talent platform designed to help employers, recruiters, consultants, and candidates connect more effectively. The platform combines: AI-enhanced candidate profiles Assessment and benchmarking tools Talent communities Employer branding Structured candidate databases AI-supported recruitment workflows This enables organizations to make better hiring decisions while helping candidates showcase their competencies, experience, and growth potential. Why We Are Different Unlike traditional training providers, HR systems, ATS platforms, or consulting firms, we combine: Performance Management Training & Coaching Assessment & Benchmarking Recruitment & Talent Development AI-driven insights and automation into one integrated ecosystem. The platform has been developed and refined through real-world projects involving: More than 500 organizations Over 2,000 leaders More than 8,000 sales professionals Thousands of documented development activities and milestone measurements Our Vision Our vision is to become a global platform for measurable human and organizational development, helping companies improve performance, recruit smarter, and document the impact of their investments in people. We believe that growth should not be based on assumptions. It should be measured, validated, and continuously improved.

Lyfta is building the operating system for strength training. Today, millions of people go to the gym without a clear plan, without tracking properly, and without understanding whether they’re actually progressing. Most tools in the space optimize for engagement, not outcomes. We think that’s the wrong approach. Strength training is one of the highest-leverage activities for long-term health, but only if it’s structured, consistent, and measurable. That’s what we’re building, a system that helps people train with clarity, track real progress, and improve over time. Lyfta is already used by over a million people globally, with strong growth month over month. We’re still early, but the ambition is clear: build the product people rely on to get stronger, not just another app they use occasionally.

Bsure is a fast-growing Norwegian SaaS company that helps organisations gain control of their users, access and license costs in the Microsoft ecosystem.

The result is better security, lower costs and full visibility. We’re backed by international investors, we’re growing quickly, and we’re building a product with global potential.

At Yobr, we see collaboration between students and companies as a way to bring fresh perspectives and the latest skills to real-world challenges. Companies gain flexible, efficient ways to complete meaningful projects that create real value while discovering new talent. For students, it’s an opportunity to apply their skills, learn, and grow in a professional setting. The problem is that most companies struggle to tap into this potential—they don’t have the time, resources, or know-how to make it work. Yobr is changing that. We’re building a platform that leverages AI to simplify project planning, efficiently match yobs with the right students from our talent base, and support execution with intuitive collaboration tools and tailored AI agents. Since starting in January we have done pilots with known brands like SalMar, SpareBank 1 and Norbit, gaining key insight on how students projects should be run. We've developed our technical solution since August, and are looking to launch a beta of our platform in January 2025. We just closed a Angel round and received Innovation Norway's phase 2 grant, targeting break-even and a seed round in Q2 2025. We are a solid team of builders and creators, 3 being full-time and 3 part-time, based in Oslo and Trondheim. Now we are looking to take this to the next level!

The world is full of IoT devices. Many of those run on an operating system called embedded Linux. These devices often run very advanced application software to control machines, collect data or even do edge based machine learning. The companies developing those IIoT applications usually have very high competence in terms of software development and building these machines. Operating all the embedded Linux devices that are part of these machines throughout their lifecycle is often not a typical skill set that is present in typical industry 4.0 companies. Here https://qbee.io/ comes to the rescue. We can help to manage, update and maintain large fleets of devices. Or you just want to run a short POC (proof of concept) but the device is behind a firewall. Again qbee helps you with a secure and built-in VPN that allows you to access files remotely, map any application port from the edge device to a local computer or it simply offers you a quick ssh access to debug on the remote device. In many ways qbee replaces a typical system administrator role for our customers. Because even a standard Raspberry Pi is by definition of its software a full fledged server and it needs to be handled and updated with OTA updates in order to stay secure and stable. All this is handled by qbee and we already have many Norwegian and international customers simplifying their projects and increasing IoT security. We are happy to get in touch with you and let you know more about our solution. We also offer a 30 day free trial: https://qbee.io/
