A Krismis Story The julegenser.no project is simply a result of our very first ugly christmas sweater love affair! After a visit to Canada in 2012, two sumptuous, LED flashing ugly christmas sweaters came with us home to winter Oslo, Norway. The sweaters evoked this childlike happiness over the Christmas celebration, both in us and in everyone else when we wore them to Christmas parties and we noticed that we wanted more of this feeling. We simply wanted more of such sweaters! It was easier said than done in 2012. But, if you do not find what you are looking for, you can make it yourself...so then we did it. Although it took its time. With our brand 'Krismis' https://krismis.com, we want to share this sparkling, warm Christmas feeling with you. This way you can also have the Christmas atmosphere in your wardrobe all year round, and always have something to wear at the Christmas party, not matter what. We simply love Christmas sweaters! That is why we do not compromise on quality. We wish you a Merry Christmas, and remember that the most important message of Christmas is love. Huge Christmas hugs from the Julegenser.no / Krismis team. KRISMIS

Founded by Theresa Harmanen and Claudia Menger in 2018, Sanga Yoga is your home for yoga for pregnancy, postpartum and fertility. Sanga Yoga was born out of our need for community and finding a more therapeutic, feminine approach to yoga for major transitions and changes in life, such as pregnancy and postpartum, as well as parenthood and fertility. We turned that need into local studio yoga classes in and around Oslo, as well as private sessions and workshops, and are now also creating an online space for these practices.

The Pitch SignLab helps families that need to learn sign language or sign-assisted communication to communicate The What Parents to children who are severely hard of hearing or deaf need to learn sign language to communicate. Today, only 1 in 4 parents to deaf children in high-income countries manage to learn sign language. In low-income countries, it is believed to be less than 1 in 10. Families with individuals that benefit from sign-assisted communication face the same challenge. These include the parents to children with Down Syndrome, severe autism or Cerebral palsy. The How An international learning platform for sign languages and sign-assisted communication. The SignLab learning platform is fully digital and can incorporate new languages within weeks. The user only needs access to a smartphone or a computer. The platform makes it fun and easy to learn through gamification and timed encouragement. To ensure that the user gets the most out of every learning session, our review functionality incorporates an AI that knows what signs you are about to forget. The AI then designs a learning session that is tailored to the individual user’s need. Our curriculum is designed in cooperation with sign language teachers in each language. The platform launched in open beta in Norway November 2018. Feedback from parents and sign language teachers gave it a NPS of +64. The platform saw exponential growth with an average growth rate of 276% each month for the first three months (Nov-Feb). This growth all came from word of mouth, $0 spent on marketing. The Why Today less than 10% of the 64 million parents to deaf and hard of hearing children know sign language due to the low availability of education centers. Exclusion from communication have a significant impact on everyday life, causing feelings of loneliness, isolation, and frustration. The inability to properly communicate have a significantly adverse effect on the academic performance of children. SignLab works towards a society where all families have access to teaching themself, their children and their community signs and sign language so that everyone can feel included.

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"
