Jeg ville ikke prøvd å beskrive dere som én startup med én problemstilling. Det interessante er nettopp at kandidaten kommer inn i et lite økosystem av ekte virksomheter og nye konsepter. På The Hub er det en styrke, særlig for den typen tech/AI-nysgjerrige student vi vil ha. Jeg ville skrevet det slik: About us We have a slightly unusual setup. We run several businesses and projects across hospitality, consumer products, media and design. Some are established businesses with employees, customers and real revenue. Others are early-stage ideas we are currently trying to turn into something real. Møllefossen is a café, event venue and hospitality concept in Oslo. We are building a premium Norwegian mineral water brand. We work with wine import, are developing new consumer products, and are currently launching a podcast. More ideas tend to appear faster than we can execute them. That is essentially the problem we are trying to solve. We are good at coming up with concepts, building businesses, finding opportunities and getting things moving. But today, a surprisingly large part of turning an idea into reality is digital: a website needs to be built, a brand needs an identity, something needs to be filmed, a product needs packaging, a podcast needs to become 15 good clips, or an idea needs to be tested before spending weeks and a lot of money on it. AI is changing how much a very small team can actually do. We want to take advantage of that properly – not by generating endless mediocre content, but by combining good taste, creativity and new technology to move much faster from “we should do this” to “it’s live.” That is why we are looking for someone who gets genuinely excited by having Framer open in one window, ChatGPT or Claude in another, a half-finished Reel on the screen and a completely new project landing on their desk the following week. If you need a clearly defined corporate job description and six months of planning before launching something, this probably isn’t the right place. If that sounds like fun, it might be.

Founded in 2024 and headquartered in Oslo, Getia identifies market opportunities, assembles teams, and actively develops products to capture significant market share across multiple verticals. The studio has launched 18+ products spanning privacy and compliance (GetCookies), email marketing (GetMailer), server-side tracking (GetCAPI), AI-powered customer support (GetAnswers), property management (Bellkeep), content distribution (GetFeeder), and more.

With in-house expertise in product strategy, UI/UX design, full-stack development, data analytics, and go-to-market, the team can take a product from idea to paying customers in weeks rather than months. All products are built on modern tech stacks with EU-hosted infrastructure, making them a natural fit for privacy-conscious European businesses. The studio operates from Mesh, Oslo's largest coworking space, and is currently raising its Series A to accelerate growth across the portfolio. Getia is looking for investors who bring strategic value beyond capital — partners with deep domain expertise and distribution networks in the Nordics and across Europe.

Silicon Valhalla is a Nordic tech intelligence hub that maps startups, founders, investors, and market signals across the Nordic region, with a particular emphasis on AI, SaaS, and frontier innovation. It exists to make the “Silicon Valhalla” ecosystem - Nordic tech’s answer to Silicon Valley - more visible, navigable, and investable for founders, operators, and capital. The platform combines a curated startup directory, an events calendar, and ecosystem insights into a single, neutral entry point for Nordic tech. Startups and scaleups get structured profiles highlighting what they do, where they are based, which sector they play in, and how to reach them, while investors and partners can quickly scan emerging companies across AI, climate, fintech, deep tech, and more. A continuously updated view of companies and activity aims to surface momentum early, so users can spot new categories, breakout teams, and upcoming fundraising stories before they hit the mainstream. Silicon Valhalla is designed to be independent and ecosystem-first rather than a job board or paywalled database. The service is currently free to use, making discovery accessible while opening the door for future premium offerings such as featured profiles, highlighted events, and deeper signal products for investors and corporates. In short, Silicon Valhalla is building the default map and narrative for Nordic tech: a living overview of the startups, talent, and ideas turning the region into one of the most dynamic innovation hubs in Europe.
