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.

We are enabling the mounting of solar systems in fragile or challenging terrains. Current mounting structures are based on pile ramming, concrete or similar solutions. This limits the number of locations for ground mounted solar systems or makes it very expensive to build these systems. These systems are also very labour intensive, making it difficult to develop solar systems in locations where labour is hi-cost. Since current mounting structures is best for large flat areas, these systems also face competition for other purposes also valuing large flat areas. This makes the alternative cost of the area rather high. We are aiming on mitigating these challenges with our mounting system, opening for larger solar systems in areas that until now have been deemed not suitable. This because the soil conditions are too difficult, the terrain demands too much soil cultivation making the cost high either economical or ecological, the labour cost is too high, or the flat and open landscape is prioritized for other purposes than solar systems. We are not competing with existing mounting system, but opening new possibilities for more solar energy worldwide.

Over 2.5 million Norwegians lack recommended vaccines, and unfortunately, many are unaware of this. But luckily, there is a solution: Flokki. We are ready to play a key role in increasing vaccination rates and improving public health. Dr. Arne Søraas, an experienced infectious disease specialist at Oslo University Hospital and Flokki, has witnessed the consequences of missing vaccinations up close. This insight inspired the idea of Flokki - a simple and practical tool that allows patients to assess their vaccination status and receive prescriptions from doctors, all with a few taps on their mobile phones (read more). Maintaining immunity in the adult population, especially after the age of 65, is crucial. The pneumococcal vaccine is particularly important for protecting the elderly from serious diseases. And let's not forget the Boostrix Polio vaccine, which plays a critical role in protecting against whooping cough, especially for those in close contact with newborns. With over 2.5 million Norwegians lacking vaccines, almost all pharmacy staff should be able to provide recommendations for vaccine checks. We especially encourage those over 65 to check their vaccination status, as well as pregnant women, who have a special duty to protect themselves and their unborn children. By raising awareness of the importance of vaccination and providing easy access to vaccines, Flokki is the answer to the adult vaccination program. Together, we can improve public health and reduce the incidence of serious diseases in society.
