Fixing and repairing of consumer goods are declining, and have been for many years. It can seem cheaper and more convenient to buy a new product and throw away the broken one. At the same time, repair shops need more customers. We will create a digital booking system to make repairing easier and convenient. Consumers can choose their preferred repair shop and order repairs directly from their couch and have it sent and delivered. At the same time, we help repairers reach new customers online and a CRM system optimised and co-created with repairers. Our mission is to build a culture for repair and inspire people to take care of what they already have. Our main SDG is number 12 - Responsible consumption and production. Increased volume of repair will lead to lower consumption and inspire consumers to buy less and better products. This is a big goal for Fikse and with our digital system, we know that it will lead to more reuse. In addition, Fikse is also contributing to goals 8, 11, 13 and 17. We care about the environment and will always work for these goals. In other words: We make repairs easy and convenient. Problem Today, repair and maintenance of consumer goods are a real hassle. It can seem cheaper and more convenient to buy a new product and throw away the broken one. In addition, repair shops need more customers and better margins. They also lack a customized system for managing orders and communicating with customers. Retail businesses have a hard time creating a solution for handling warranty and refund. Research shows that the inconvenience of repair is just as high an obstacle as the price. On the other side, repairers struggle to get customers. They do not have the time, money or resources to be active on social media or promote on digital platforms. They are also lacking a good system for managing orders and communicating with customers. Solution We help repair businesses and retail owners reach out to customers and respond to the emerging market for repairs and circularity. We are in the process of creating a digital booking system to make repairing easy, fast and convenient for all segments above. And we know that this sustainable concept is a service they actually want. At Høyer Paleet in Oslo, you can see for yourself. Together with the high-end retailer, we launched our MVP here in mid may. And what a response. We have over 800 bookings as of september 20, as well as the retail itself. This winter, we will start developing a fully digital version. This way, you can choose your preferred repair shop and order repairs directly from your couch and have it sent and delivered. At the same time, we help repairers reach new customers online by creating a CRM system optimized and co-created with repairers. We can manage all cases of repairs connected to warranty and refund for businesses to ensure the consumer a sustainable practice on all levels. Our dedicated team is ready to help you take care of what you have - so that your stuff can live longer and you can continue living your life.

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.

Crystallize is a New Normal Group company that has been at the frontier of digital technology and business models for the last twenty years, we have learnt the lessons for what to do and more importantly; what not to do.

Material Mapper’s vision is to create a market of scale for secondary building materials by mapping them in Europe and leading the transition towards a closed-loop circular construction and demolition industry. The European construction industry is urgently lacking clear, centralized access to information about secondary building materials available in their area, due to the fragmentation and inconsistency with which these public data are captured and stored. This makes building planning with quality secondary building materials time and cost-intensive for stakeholders, in turn making it difficult to comply with the EU’s Waste Directive of 70% recycled/re-used building materials. Our young, multi-award-winning company is planning to launch a project over 24 months to build a breakthrough innovation for the whole of Europe using artificial intelligence and machine learning that will extract, read, evaluate, and forecast quantities of secondary building materials for the user, making future planning for property developers seamless through our platform. We are confident that our product is unique and that we have no direct competition. By combining our deep technology, partnership development, and B2B sales expertise, we are already working closely with major industry actors to harness insights and their existing networks for our customer base.
