Carrot

We believe the key to solving the world's two billion waste problem is to motivate people and companies to reduce waste and benefit from the circular economy. We do this by integrating data from all types of digital hardware to understand where waste comes from, and we use this data to reward sustainable behaviour. Our company was born in the waste industry and designed to change it. During the past year, we've launched a new brand, started building an insane team, won the Proptech Award 2021, and gone from 1 to 10 customers. All regulatory winds blow our way and we're ready to conquer the world.

SurplusHub International AS

SurplusHub.com - the world's premier marketplace for selling and buying surplus oil, gas and shipping equipment. The oil and gas industry is global, extensive and a mass consumer of equipment and materials. SurplusHub.com offers a more convenient way of trading surplus, saving time, money and reducing environmental impacts. The oil and gas industry is fast moving, procurement-intensive and resource demanding. Oil field operators, service industry majors and third party suppliers are under constant pressure to have updated and specialized parts in hand, replacement readily available and at the same time balance logistics, lead times and regulations. As a result budgets are often massive to ensure quick deliveries, and environmental aspects down prioritized. SurplusHub.com is a brand new take on how equipment and materials can be indexed, accessed, sold, bought and reused on a global scale. The result are lower cost, more efficient sourcing procedures, shorter lead times and significantly reduced environmental impacts. Too often industry surplus is perfectly fine, sometimes even brand new second hand, and with varying needs across the globe, one company's scrapping candidate might be golden for someone else. SurplusHub.com offer an online solution that enables buyers and sellers to discover, connect, trade and ship all over the world, from anywhere to anywhere. The online portal, which pre-launched 2 year ago, has been custom built from the ground up to be tailored and adapted to actual industry needs and modes of operation: The item categories adhere to internationally recognized classifications and descriptions, users can easily put items up for sale on the go using the mobile app, and any documentation can be uploaded alongside each item, and the trade dialogues are logged and carried out directly between registered sellers and buyers, ensuring transparency, efficiency and amicability.

EMerald Geomodelling

EMerald Geomodelling is a spin-off from the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI). Though we are a young company founded in 2019, our business is built on a decade of research and development at NGI. We are creating a tool that revolutionizes the way we build roads, railways, tunnels, and other types of infrastructure towards a more sustainable use of resources. By using AI to detect patterns and manage uncertainties, we provide critical insights early on in large building projects that help our clients make better decisions. Why do we do this? Worldwide, building infrastructure costs billions of dollars. Too often, actual costs go way over budget. These extra billions spent are a huge burden on society.

By helping our clients build roads, railways, and tunnels with fewer costly interventions, we help free up funds for other worthy social and environmental goals.

SignLab

The Pitch SignLab helps families that need to learn sign language or sign-assisted communication to communicate The What Parents to children who are severely hard of hearing or deaf need to learn sign language to communicate. Today, only 1 in 4 parents to deaf children in high-income countries manage to learn sign language. In low-income countries, it is believed to be less than 1 in 10. Families with individuals that benefit from sign-assisted communication face the same challenge. These include the parents to children with Down Syndrome, severe autism or Cerebral palsy. The How An international learning platform for sign languages and sign-assisted communication. The SignLab learning platform is fully digital and can incorporate new languages within weeks. The user only needs access to a smartphone or a computer. The platform makes it fun and easy to learn through gamification and timed encouragement. To ensure that the user gets the most out of every learning session, our review functionality incorporates an AI that knows what signs you are about to forget. The AI then designs a learning session that is tailored to the individual user’s need. Our curriculum is designed in cooperation with sign language teachers in each language. The platform launched in open beta in Norway November 2018. Feedback from parents and sign language teachers gave it a NPS of +64. The platform saw exponential growth with an average growth rate of 276% each month for the first three months (Nov-Feb). This growth all came from word of mouth, $0 spent on marketing. The Why Today less than 10% of the 64 million parents to deaf and hard of hearing children know sign language due to the low availability of education centers. Exclusion from communication have a significant impact on everyday life, causing feelings of loneliness, isolation, and frustration. The inability to properly communicate have a significantly adverse effect on the academic performance of children. SignLab works towards a society where all families have access to teaching themself, their children and their community signs and sign language so that everyone can feel included.

YOUNG SUSTAINABLE IMPACT

We have fun, excited people who are trying their best to help people and at the same time grow into becoming that person who can influence the world in a positive direction. It's about the main goal, and not being recognized yourself - which is why any disagreement we have, turns out in a positive energy. The power of trying to get YSI to do the most good, is vital! We have found a great spot in Greenhouse, with a gaming room, ping pong, garden on the roof, (A ROOF), and other cool companies from all fields imaginable.At the same time, we work with teams in Bangladesh, South-East Asia, and China. Extremely different cultures, who also have the same goal as us. This is both hard and exciting at the same time.

Mindbuddy

Short Description: Mindbuddy is developing an AI-powered mental training app to help young athletes build confidence, focus, and resilience by combining sports psychology with accessible, easy-to-use tools designed for their daily routines. The What: Mental training is often inaccessible to young athletes due to stigma, cost, or limited resources at clubs. This leaves players struggling with performance anxiety, self-doubt, and inconsistent focus - issues that directly impact their performance and well-being. Despite its importance, mental training remains underutilized, especially in grassroots and academy-level sports. With over 50% of players reporting struggles with confidence and performance pressure, this is a problem that affects millions of young athletes worldwide. The How: Mindbuddy bridges the gap between mental training and accessibility by delivering tailored sports psychology tools directly to players’ phones. Using AI, the app helps players set SMART goals, generate visualization tracks, and build mental routines for training and matches. For clubs, Mindbuddy offers a simple platform to track team well-being, measure progress, and provide coaches with actionable insights - allowing mental training to seamlessly integrate into the day-to-day routines of both players and teams. The Why: As a professional footballer for 18 years, including many as captain of Vålerenga, I’ve experienced firsthand the enormous pressure players face. It wasn’t until the latter part of my career, when I discovered the power of mental training, that I realized how much better prepared and focused I could be. That sparked the idea for Mindbuddy. I wanted to create a tool that made mental training accessible to every young athlete, breaking down the barriers of stigma and cost, and ensuring they can unlock their full potential - both on and off the pitch.
