Pinovo AS is a Norwegian scale up that has developed, patented, proven and commercialised surface maintenance technology that stops Ocean Paint Microplastic emissions. Ocean Paint Microplastic emissions are a large but little known problem that we estimate could be generating between 1.5m and 2.25m tonnes of ocean pollution each year (https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/09/how-to-reduce-microplastics-from-paint/). Pinovo has developed a clean, circular dustless grit blasting solution, which stops these emissions and which is also up to 60% more cost efficient than the traditional methods of surface maintenance for spot blasting.

Volant was founded in Norway by Tobias Nervik and Daniel Hoftun. They shared a flat in Oslo and wanted to buy an aroma diffuser to start using essential oils after Tobias heard about it on the Tim Ferriss show. Daniel had just refurbished the apartment and wanted a nice-looking diffuser that fit well with the interior decor. They were unable to find one. That is why they created volant: to offer a minimalistic essential oil diffuser that goes with any interior. The volant diffuser was an instant hit in Norway and launched in 15 countries within the first year. The volant diffuser is Scandinavian in design and craftsmanship and is the flagship product of volant. It infuses our customers' spaces with fresh aromas and helps them feel relaxed, energetic or focused depending on their needs.

normify is an engineering-documentation technology company modernizing how technical documents are checked and maintained — "docs-as-code" for engineering. Its graph-based compliance engine checks technical deliverables against the norms and project requirements they must comply with — clause by clause, with every finding cited back to its exact source, in minutes instead of days of manual review. Instead of an engineer cross-checking a document against a standard with a highlighter, normify returns every non-conformance with a traceable audit trail for QA and client review. The graph-based method — not a raw LLM wrapper — is what lets normify reach 96.1% labelled recall across 10+ standards. It is norm-agnostic (customers bring the standards and requirements their projects are bound to), portable across LLM providers, and available self-hosted so sensitive engineering data never leaves the customer's environment. normify is extending from compliance checking into version-aware change intelligence — tracking what changed between document revisions and whether it still complies. Target users: discipline leads, technical authorities, QA/QC and document-control teams at operators, EPCs, and engineering consultancies.

Tind Studio is an AI consultancy that helps Nordic businesses turn AI from hype into working solutions, through hands-on advisory, custom implementations, and team enablement. Most companies know AI will reshape their business but don't know where to start. Tools are everywhere, vendors overpromise, and internal teams lack the time and expertise to separate signal from noise. The result: stalled pilots, wasted spend, and missed competitive advantage. We work side-by-side with leadership and operational teams to identify high-value AI use cases, build custom solutions (agents, automations, internal tools, AI-powered workflows), and train teams to actually use them. Pragmatic, fast, and focused on real business outcomes, not demos. The Why Founder Joakim saw too many companies burning budget on AI projects that never shipped or never got adopted. Tind exists to close that gap, turning AI from a boardroom topic into measurable results in the day-to-day work.

Matezy is a co-living platform that solves three problems every person in shared housing faces — but that no single product currently addresses together. Finding a compatible roommate today means scrolling through Facebook groups, TikTok and Finn.no ads with no personality filtering and no verification. The result is conflict and instability. Once you move in, managing shared finances is equally broken. Rent splits and shared bills are tracked across WhatsApp messages and Excel sheets. Money disappears and people argue. On top of that, rental contracts and deposits are handled without proper tools. Matezy solves all three in one app. Users find compatible roommates through a personality-based matching system — think Tinder for co-living. Once matched, they manage shared expenses and communication through a built-in household dashboard. Rent payments, digital contracts, and deposit handling are managed directly in the app. There are approximately 600,000 people living in shared housing in Norway alone, and hundreds of millions worldwide. No product currently owns this space.

Easy Eiendom – Company Description Easy Eiendom is a data intelligence company transforming how the real estate industry understands risk, value, and opportunity. Founded in 2024, we are building Norway’s most comprehensive property and geospatial data platform by merging traditional real estate information with advanced GIS and Big Data analytics. Our mission is to create a unified system that replaces today’s fragmented and manual workflows with automated, precise, and real-time insight. Real estate is the world’s largest asset class, yet its data infrastructure remains outdated and scattered across incompatible sources. Banks, insurers, developers, municipalities, consultants, and investors all face the same challenge: critical information about a property—its structure, land conditions, environmental exposure, infrastructure, regulations, and market dynamics—is siloed in dozens of systems. These blind spots increase risk, slow decision-making, inflate costs, and reduce transparency. Easy Eiendom was founded to solve this problem. We are building a high-fidelity database that integrates property records, building information, environmental risk layers, climate indicators, geotechnical data, mobility patterns, infrastructure networks, demographic trends, and private datasets—into one cohesive system. On top of this data we use advanced GIS workflows, automated analysis pipelines, and AI-driven insight models to deliver precise, standardized, and actionable intelligence. Our platform cuts research time by up to 80% and reduces analytical cost by 50%. Instead of manually searching through fragmented sources, users get instant access to automated risk assessments, geospatial analyses, and property insights that are continuously updated and delivered with high accuracy. Easy Eiendom helps banks improve collateral evaluations, insurers price risk more intelligently, developers assess feasibility faster, and investors make better decisions with complete situational awareness. We are driven by a simple belief: better data leads to lower risk, higher returns, and a more transparent market. Easy Eiendom exists because we experienced firsthand how inefficient and error-prone today’s workflows are. The spark came from the realization that professionals spend more time gathering data than analyzing it—while missing crucial geographical context that fundamentally shapes risk. We are building the platform we wish existed: a unified operating system for real estate intelligence, inspired by the ambition of becoming the “Palantir for property and geospatial data.” Our goal is to empower every professional who depends on property information—with clarity, speed, and confidence. We are not just building a tool; we are building the data foundation the modern real estate market needs.
