ORIVO is a laboratory company located in Norway, with partnering labs strategically located around the world. Through a lab test based on a fingerprinting technology, we offer a verification service to the marine ingredients industry. Our service is mainly aimed at the ingredient producers and brand owners, and we deliver a unique verification of the authenticity of a marine ingredient, either in the form of a certificate or as a verification seal on finished products. The ORIVO seal on a product is a guarantee that the product is: 1. Made of real marine sources (such as salmon oil, salmon meal, anchovy oil, cod liver oil, krill oil) 2. From a specific region (such as Norway, Alaska, Peru, Iceland, New Zealand etc.) A very important part of our concept is to make sure that we test the same product as you buy. The ORIO seal is therefore based on testing of products which our third party inspectors are buying in the shop - in addition to continuous sampling from the brand owner´s production.

Ripple Aerospace is a Norwegian aerospace company developing the oceanic Sea Serpent launch system. Leveraging Norway's long history of seafaring, shipbuilding, and maritime technology, we are developing a rocket class capable of being built, launched and recovered on the sea. Given the inefficiency of the space economy and launch service industry, our goal is to bring to market a mobile, reusable and scalable launch system capable of delivering medium, heavy and super heavy payloads into space. With industrial and commercialization partners from across Norway and abroad, the oceanic Sea Serpent launch system aims to be the preferred method of cargo transportation into space, providing the global economy a low-cost and accessible launch system.

We connect travelers with locals who guide, plan, and assist with every step of your journey. TLAMA is developing a two-sided travel marketplace to help independent travelers solve the problem of generic, AI-generated trip planning with real human expertise instead. Verified local guides — "lamas" — plan each trip upfront with mapped locations tailored to the traveler, then stay reachable via WhatsApp throughout the journey to answer questions, adjust plans, and share local knowledge no algorithm has. Lamas sell their availability and expertise, not billable hours, and keep 90% of every booking, with 9% funding platform operations and 1% going to 1% for the Planet — turning travel into a source of income for locals and a source of genuine connection for travelers.

ProTag is building a Digital Product Passport platform that helps manufacturers and product owners manage and share product data across their supply chains. We solve the growing challenge of fragmented, unstructured information by combining a network-driven SaaS platform with AI that turns messy supplier data into structured, usable product intelligence. Across industries, a new reality is emerging: products are no longer just physical objects, they are data assets. To sell, operate, and scale, companies need reliable information about what goes into their products, where it comes from, and how it evolves over time. The problem is that this data does not exist in one place. It is scattered across suppliers, stored in PDFs, buried in emails, or locked inside disconnected systems. Most companies today are trying to manage this with spreadsheets and manual processes. That might work internally, but it breaks down completely across a supply chain. This creates a structural problem: • Companies depend on data they do not own • Suppliers struggle to provide consistent information • Teams spend significant time chasing, cleaning, and validating data At the same time, external pressure is increasing. Customers, partners, and regulators are all asking for more transparency. What used to be “nice to have” is quickly becoming required to do business. The result is a growing gap between what companies need to know about their products and what they can actually access and trust. ProTag gives companies a way to build a live, structured view of their products across the entire supply chain. Instead of trying to centralize everything manually, we connect the different actors and let data flow where it is created. Companies use ProTag to: • Organize product data in a consistent structure • Request and receive information directly from suppliers • Keep everything updated as products evolve • Share product data with customers and partners when needed AI plays a critical role in making this scalable. We use AI to: • Turn unstructured documents into structured product data • Identify gaps, inconsistencies, and risks in real time • Reduce the effort required to onboard suppliers and maintain data quality What makes ProTag different is how it scales. We are not just building a tool for a single company. We are building a network. When one manufacturer joins ProTag, their suppliers are invited in. When those suppliers join, they can reuse their data across multiple customers. Over time, this creates a shared data layer where: • Information becomes easier to access • Data quality improves naturally • Switching costs increase for everyone involved We do not replace existing systems. We sit on top of them and connect them. This makes adoption fast and reduces friction from day one. We started ProTag because we experienced this problem firsthand. Working in industries with complex products, we saw how much time was spent chasing information that should have been readily available. Engineers, quality teams, and commercial teams were all dealing with the same issue from different angles, but there was no real solution. At the same time, the direction of the market became clear. Transparency around products is increasing, not decreasing. The amount of data required is growing fast. Most companies are not prepared for this shift. We realized this is not just a workflow problem, it is an infrastructure problem. The way product data is managed today does not match how supply chains actually work. That is why we are building ProTag. Our ambition is simple: to become the default way companies manage and share product data across supply chains. Once that layer exists, it unlocks everything else.

Kobbr is on a mission to lead craftsmen, such as electricians, painters and carpenters, into a data driven future. Craftsmen are used to old and outdated software that requires several training days to master. We are building a product that our customers actually love to use and requires no training to get started. Our approach sets us apart from traditional software companies in the industry. We prioritize integrating seamlessly with existing tools, rather than replacing them. Kobbr simplifies workflows and decreases manual tasks by offering a modern alternative to pen, paper, and Excel. Since our software can be easily integrated with craftsmen’s existing software, it shortens our sales processes significantly and opens the opportunity for product-led growth. Our goal is to develop an inclusive work atmosphere and assemble a varied team, as we encourage individuals from all different backgrounds to submit their applications and join our collective journey.
