Enterprise businesses are investing more in B2B eCommerce solutions than smaller businesses, but Storeshop have set to changed this by innovating eCommerce solutions to be more intuitive and less IT heavy for ease-of-use and implementation. Big companies are investing in expensive E-Commerce solutions to provide structure and automation to their company. This has not been available for small and medium businesses, which has led to a underdeveloped industry managing sales through excel sheets, email and phone. This is time consuming, stressful and does not participate in increased sales. Storeshop delivers a B2B eCommerce platform which integrates with all the biggest economy and ERP platforms in Norway. The systems lets customers shop for products fast and easy, with automized orders that earlier came through mail and by phone. This saves the whole-sellers a lot of time and increase sales by using some of the same methods as we use in B2C. The system supports advanced discount structures, packaging formats, B2C and a lot more.

GreenStock’s cloud-based platform streamlines logistics for the reuse of building materials. Organisations can use the platform internally to map available materials in existing buildings and leftovers from building projects in a database for reuse in future construction projects. This will reduce carbon emissions as well as overall building costs. In future, GreenStock will be offered as a digital marketplace connecting buyers and sellers of reclaimed materials to reduce waste in commercial and residential construction projects. Concrete benefits Streamlined management of building materials can reduce construction waste, while cutting the costs associated with wasting new materials. GreenStock’s digital platform enables users to save materials, manage transport and storage, and gather documentation about the materials. It also provides data on the carbon reductions and financial savings generated through use of the platform. Materials that can generally be recycled from construction sites include steel and concrete elements, aluminium, untreated timber, cardboard, paint and plastics. Leftover materials may include complete products, such as doors, windows, insulation, flooring and technical equipment. Market potential GreenStock has completed development of the beta version of the platform and is testing it together with building developers. A fully developed solution for a public marketplace will be available by the end of 2020. The company is a member of NTNU Accel, an accelerator programme at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). GreenStock is targeting the Norwegian construction market which represent an annual revenue of NOK 466 billion (roughly USD 53.4 billion), Norway’s largest building suppliers which represent an annual revenue of NOK 29 billion (roughly USD 3.3 billion), as well as the home renovation market representing NOK 76 billion (roughly USD 8.7 billion). Around 10 per cent of materials from all building projects in Norway have the potential for direct reuse.

Tribe er venneforsikring. Vi tilbyr forsikringer innen både liv og skade. Vår ambisjon er å gjøre forsikring enkelt og rettferdig. Vi som står bak er en gruppe som har mange års erfaring fra blant annet skandiabanken og FINN. Etter å ha jobbet med tradisjonell forsikring i en årrekke, har vi sett oss lei på at forsikring er gjort unødvendig komplisert og dyrt. Vi har bestemt oss for å gjøre noe med det, og har derfor etablert et alternativ. Forsikring skal være enkelt og retferdig. Det skal være lett å forstå hva og hvordan du er dekket. Ingen store ord - og ingen liten skrift. Du skal vite hva du betaler for, og prisen skal stå i forhold til hvor ansvarlig og forsiktig du er - ikke bare hvor gammel du er eller hvor du bor.

Helpadvisor ble etablert i 2016 av Bjørn Haugland, i frustrasjon over at han ikke på en enkel måte klarte å finne en oversikt over ledige tjenestetilbydere i nærområdet da han hadde vondt i ryggen. Bjørn etablerte Feedback Research som ble et av landets største markedsanalysebyråer med 60 ansatte og omsetning over 60 mill NOK. Han startet deretter Confirmit som i dag er verdens største innen utvikling av programvare for markedsanalyse med over 400 ansatte på 9 kontorer i verden, 77.8 mill USD i omsetning og 12 mill USD i resultat i 2015 og over en milliard intervjuer gjennomført i de siste årene. Han har også vært med å starte Symphonical som på det meste hadde 350 000 brukere over hele verden og flere andre selskaper.
