Quickorder

Quickorder provides an end-2-end solution for restaurants and cafes consisting of POS, Online ordering, schedule planning and table booking. Everything is interconnected making sure all data is gathered in one big backend, we apply machine learning to the data to make business recommendations on guest experience, staffing, etc. Quickorder is a fast-moving company where people with excellence strive. Key traits: We love these 5 key traits in our fellow colleagues: Curiosity, High work capacity, empathy, self-awareness and, Integrity In Quickorder we look at ourselves as a  pro sports team, and not a family. In a family, there is unconditional love but in a sports team you need to perform in order to be a part of the team if one guy or girl on the team falls through the whole team is in danger of doing so too. The Quickorder team: in the Quickorder team, all colleagues are extraordinary at what they do and excellent collaborators. The value and satisfaction of being a part of such a team are tremendous. Our vision of a great workplace doesn't consist of exclusive roundtable meetings with expensive catered food, gym facilities, fancy office spaces, or frequent parties with colleagues. Our version of the best workplace is a team where working towards and pursuing a common goal and vision creates real value. Therefore we decide to spend on that, instead of fancy dinners or crazy parties. We believe it is on such a team that you learn the most, perform the best, improves the fastest, and have the most fun.  At Quickorder collaboration and trust is thriving and are an essential part of the team. There is no room for " brilliant jerks" the cost to the teamwork is simply too high. succeeding as a part of Quickorder requires being effective, not working hard. A, B performances with tons of work put into it make for a mediocre result whereas a truly excellent performance doesn't need a ton of work in order to make a great impact.  Freedom and responsibility: Our goal is to inspire people, more than to manage them. We believe that great performers that are part of a team know the better solution, and therefore it's not the managers' duty to tell how things should be done, but merely to set the context so that the employee can find the best possible solution. We trust in freedom, and constantly tries to take new actions in order to improve the amount of freedom our employees possess, some examples of what we do are: Employees got an unlimited amount of vacation (only 6 paid weeks) Our policy vacation is " take vacation, and use ALL of your 6 weeks) Employees get tailored work hours that fit their work/life balance Our policy for spending, travel, and other costs is very simple: "Only spend like you would your self, and always spend in Quickorders best interest"

Gelato

Gelato aims to disrupt this model by providing customers with a portal through which they can manage these print jobs centrally, but print and distribute locally. We don’t do any printing ourselves – we’re a facilitator – but at the same time, we’re already saving our customers millions in efficiencies and making a major contribution to their own need to reduce overall carbon footprint. We believe that "collaborative consumption" can be the positive consequence of a "sharing economy". We believe in sharing fixed assets – in our case sharing of print machines. And in allowing excess capacity to be intelligently allocated. Sharing permits owners of fixed assets to monetize the underutilized assets. It offers environmentally friendly local delivery.

Rich or poor, young or old, artist or not - everyone is welcome.    Diversify art:   Blank Space represents art that isn't commonly found in a gallery setting to help give these forms of art validation in the public eye. Though we believe the definition of art is much broader, we focus on areas such as illustration, animation, comic books, graphic design, street art, film, game design, and concept art. We also work with traditional artists who explore contemporary applications.     Strengthen education:   Blank Space offers a wide variety of workshops, lectures, and events to broaden the creative resources for artists in Oslo. These high quality arrangements vary in topic, theme, and level so that everyone can improve their skills in visual art and design.   Support production:   Blank Space encourages action, not just talk.     Challenge yourself:   Through our studios and events we promote taking risks in art, pushing skills past their current level, and helping others to be the best artist / designer they can be. We help people recognize their mistakes while providing a nurturing environment in which to fix them.

wa.works

Our goal is to fix the issues with IT recruitment by challenging the role WE used to have for many years. The issues are that:1. It's hard to know who's best for a job because we rely on manual evaluations based on CV-descriptions.2. It's even harder to know where you can find the best candidates because it's time consuming and expensive to track and promote on all platforms.Now, the easiest solution is to hire a recruitment agency (like we used to be), and receive candidates from their private database. But when the price range form 5000-15 0000$ per hire, very few companies can afford this. And you still have to trust that the agency have fixed the two issues above, and that their recommendations are not influenced by the potential payout.That's why we are creating a tool that matches candidates and companies so precisely that there should be no doubts to who you should interview. We match your skill need to everyone who has applied for the job and everyone who has applied for other jobs, so that you don't have to limit your talent access to only your own marketing efforts and budget. And we are only charging 500$ per process, with unlimited hires and users.
