Vidd Medical is an on-premise AI platform that automates clinical documentation to give healthcare professionals back time and focus. Our solution transcribes consultations in real time, structures notes (journalføring, epikriser og ukeoppsummeringer) and integrates directly with existing EHR workflows — all processed locally inside the customer’s IT perimeter so no sensitive patient data is shared with cloud or third parties. We solve two urgent problems: the heavy administrative burden that steals clinicians’ time and the privacy/regulatory risks of sending health data off-site. By delivering ambient transcription, smart dictation and text-to-text features inside the hospital or clinic firewall, Vidd reduces after-hours documentation, lowers double-entry and helps institutions meet GDPR and medical device (MDR/CE) requirements. Built in collaboration with healthcare professionals, Vidd is designed to slot seamlessly into established routines and EHR systems, offering a scalable, local alternative to cloud-based AI that preserves control over patient data while improving documentation quality and clinical workflow.

Bio-Me Is Setting The Standard For Routine Microbiome Analysis Gut microbiome research has become essential to almost every medical research field.

However, the field is now moving past the exploratory research phase and there is a need to translate microbiome research findings into actionable clinical solutions. Application of NGS for this purpose faces several challenges related to precision, turnaround time, cost per sample, and the need for complex bioinformatic pipelines.

The Hive Initiative is creating tools to help companies integrate adaptation and mitigation efforts within their organisation through design-thinking workshops and implementation frameworks. As our planet warms and ecosystems continue to change, businesses will be increasingly required to make meaningful- and reportable- changes. As most people do not have a background in environmental science, it can be challenging to understand the full picture and how roles can be adapted. And while sustainability courses and seminars convey knowledge, it remains challenging to keep the energy high, the culture empowered, and the knowledge put into practice. The Hive Initiative’s Mini Climate Summit makes it easy to address these challenges. It brings employees together in real time to learn science-based facts and then gives them a forum to collaborate on solutions. With ideas captured and implemented, KPIs are met, ESG requirements are fulfilled and culture is strengthened. The result: more minds that help make company sustainability more active, enabled and empowered, which in turn makes society more educated and resilient. We are a group of people with high levels of climate anxiety- but also high levels of optimism. We want to use our skills in design and communication to make it easier for everyone to stay educated, hopeful and empowered, which will make it much easier for all of us to adapt to our changing world. As the founder, I wanted to work on solutions every day, and did so while having a day job. After 4 years, myself and my collaborators have built up a good product prototype, solid relationships with other climate orgs, and solid vision of what we hope to achieve. So it was the right time to focus on this fully. I really do believe that all of us want a world that is fair for everyone and is in harmony nature. We just have to figure out how to get there.
