Jordisk ("Earthly" in Norwegian) is a start-up based in Norway that is developing a unique distribution platform for sustainable packaging to help businesses which need single-use food packaging to become environmentally friendly by embracing products which are recyclable, compostable and/or biodegradable. We are also a part of the accelerator Fauna: https://www.faunaeksperimentet.no/ There is an immediate need to replace traditional single use packaging that is normally based on fossil based plastics with more sustainable alternatives that already exist in the market. Food packaging is becoming a growing global concern, because of the large amount of waste it generates and the chemicals it contains that can be detrimental to our health. In 2014, out of the 258 million tons of municipal solid waste generated in the US, more than 63 percent was of packaging materials (for food and other purposes) and, overall, only 35 percent (89 million tons) was recycled or composted. What happens to the remaining 65 percent? We all know that landfills are frequently used and that a lot of waste is just burned which leaves a huge carbon footprint. The end of life alternative for food packaging can be significantly improved by using alternative eco-friendly materials that already exist and can be implemented in a circular model. The aim of our distribution platform is to be the natural marketplace for sellers of sustainable food packaging where they can showcase their products to potential buyers who need one time packaging. Moreover, ideal sellers would genuinely care about the environment and have a circular model in order to reduce the carbon footprint as much as possible. A typical customer would be a restaurant that offers takeaway. The food packaging industry operates in a very traditional way with one-to-one contracts and is mature enough for a disruption. With our platform, we can be the link and matchmaker between the supplier and customer. Our goal is to raise awareness in the industry and among consumers, so they can know about sustainable food packaging alternatives such as products that are made of bagasse, bamboo, mycelium, leaves, bio-laminat and plant-based plastic such as PLA. The timing is ideal, as we are currently seeing drastic changes in jurisdiction and lawmaking in Europe, single-use plastic cutlery, cotton buds, straws and stirrers will be banned by 2021 and the EU's Green Deal Strategy is to find sustainable alternatives to replace traditional fossil based plastic. We are currently doing market research in Norway in order to source and partner with producers that could be interested in our platform. The feedback we are getting so far are positive, as most new producers would like further traction in order to get much needed market share. We are actively looking for another person with the technical know-how that wants to join the team to develop this platform with us. Even though we live in an era of Instagram and Facebook where spreading awareness in a particular topic is easier than before, environmental pollution is still one of the most concerning issues in today’s world. We, as consumers, are either too busy to care about packaging, or there aren’t many sustainable options to choose from when buying a product. One of the founders, Rezowan, has a background from the travel industry, and has from many of his previous travels seen the growing amount of plastic going astray, both on land and at sea. In many Asian countries, he has seen that there are no good waste solutions that contribute to, for example, plastic being recycled in a circular way. Over the last 2-3 years, new technology has been developed that makes it easier to choose sustainable and environmentally friendly alternatives, and the main goal is to promote environmentally friendly alternatives to fossil plastics so that society can become more aware of this.

The world is getting urbanized and we need more and more resources to build and develop our cities. With this growth comes an increased pressure on natural resources. At the same time we have already have an impressive ''bank of materials'' available in the cities, namely in our buildings. By mapping and understanding the amount, quality and accessibility of these materials we can better plan for the future. We can decrease the pressure on new materials and create a circular building industry. AGAIN X provides a top down approach to mapping existing buildings, their content and status, by using aggregated data and machine learning. Our SaaS platform will give better KPIs(Key Performance Indicators) to real estate investors and managers. The KPIs will help them make more sustainable long-term decisions; better for their wallet and better for the planet.

Det var for noen år tilbake stor produksjon av solcellemoduler i Norge. Norske REC hadde produksjon av komplette solcellemoduler både i Glomfjord og Narvik. Begge i Nordland. I 2011 kom bl.a. østlige produsenter på banen og presset prisene betydelig på kort tid. Dette så mye at REC ble nødt til å flagge ut produksjonen fra Norge. Igjen stod det mye god kompetanse. Bare i Narvik jobbet oppunder 300 personer med solcelleproduksjon. Det var, og er fremdeles, et forskningsmiljø på solcelleteknologi i Narvik. Det var ifm denne utflaggingen fra REC at Solbes AS oppstod. Vi kan dermed skilte med å være den bedriften i Norge som har noe av den beste kompetansen som er å oppdrive, samt en av aktørene som har vært lengst i markedet. Dette er vi stolte av! ​Vi har ansatte både med mastergrad og doktorgrad innen solcellesystemer.  Som en bil ikke er en bil, og en ost ikke er en ost, så er heller ikke et solcellepanel et solcellepanel. I tillegg kommer alle de andre komponentene i solcellesystemet. Om du skal kjøpe en bil, er farge og hestekrefter det eneste som teller? Lada og Lamborghini det samme? Vi KAN forskjellene og hjelper deg så du ikke får en dyr Lada, når du tror du får en billig Lamborghini, og det du egentlig trengte var en Land Cruicer.

We in Legelisten.no want to make Norwegian Healthcare more user friendly.  We think good user experience and as much easily accessible and relevant information as possible is important so that everyone can choose the best doctors, dentists and other healthcare professionals for themselves.   You don’t want to just be a name on a list to your healthcare professional, so don’t pick them just based on their name either. A core element of Legelisten.no are actual patients' ratings of the healthcare specialists they have used. You don’t hear how good they are from us, but you get an idea of ​​what actual patients experienced and felt and can judge for yourself.     And since good user experience is based on good communication – your constructive feedback makes it easier for the healthcare professionals to either keep doing what they are doing well, or to try and improve whatever isn’t working out so well. They’ll help you get better and your reviews will help them be better as well.   As we grow Legelisten.no will be working with partners and others to add even more features to make it easier to understand and use the healthcare system in Norway for us as patients, and make it easier for healthcare professionals to understand and meet our needs.   The person caring for your health shouldn’t just be a random name on a list, and nor should you be. Help identify great healthcare professionals by sharing your experiences on Legelisten.no!
