Empire AI is a company founded by workspace consultants with over a decade of experience in developing office buildings. Through our work, we noticed that the office planning process is characterized by gut-feelings, guesswork and outdated benchmarks. This results in suboptimal office space that has massive amounts of unused space - an average of 80-90% of chairs and 50-60% of rooms remain empty during work hours in a typical office building today. Simultaneously, employees are complaining they do not have the necessary rooms and support their work. To address this issue, we created Empire AI. Empire's software is designed to transform the way you plan and manage your office space, making office buildings more space efficient, sustainable, and people-centric. Our machine learning models can predict how your office space will be used, allowing you to make informed decisions before you even begin building. With our software, you'll be able to identify which rooms and areas will be most useful and which will be less so, ensuring optimal utilization of your space. It can be used for building specifications, scenario planning, monitoring and improving existing office space and to predict utilization before building the space. Our recommendations are based on years of research and data, so our customers can be confident that they're making the right choices.

Peur is a timeless brand made for the formidable man. It holds the key to impressive, intense and manner-like attire tailored for gentlemen across the world. The story of Peur starts from a world renowned waterwall in Norway named Steindalsfossen. It’s level of versatility in various seasons makes this waterfall unique in the resemblance of Peurs’ concept; It roars when the time is right and has a level of complexity and perfection very few waterfalls do. This harmony is what Peur seeks to visualize in the form of high-end fashion suits and labelling. The story of Peur has been merged through a marriage between Nordic minimalism and exclusive Italian fabrics. The constellation of famous, dark and mystic Nordic granite mixed with the freshness of wool from across the Italian meadows makes the brand a reputable player in the men’s fashion industry. Peur is not the everyday brand you might think of when you imagine a standard bespoke brand. Peur is unique. It’s a family. A family he is a part of. He who surrounds himself with the dapper individuals. The one who makes visions into reality yet keeps his values real. He is a man with huge self-esteem – yet keeps himself private with the mindset of creating his own world. A world not bound by the laws of any given society, rather by the intellectual properties of likeminded individuals who share the same vision and a non-existing level of atrocities.

At Kørt, we believe the items you buy and wear should serve you with style and functionality, without any compromise. Our signature pieces, the Kymera, and the Kassowari are many bags in one, designed to transform as occasions arise, to suit the moments and flow of your workday or overseas travels, and to transition with you as you move through all stages of your life. The promise of intelligent design, beauty, and simplicity is woven into each and every one of our products, along with the quality and trust of being individually handcrafted in Norway. About Kørt Kørt is a female owned and founded. The name Kørt is my (Courtney - owner, and founder) nickname after a mispronunciation occurred in the job I was transferred to Norway to do, at DNV. I've been leather crafting for 9 years now. I owned a small leather goods business in Australia which broke even and was gaining consistent orders before I had to choose to either continue or relocate to Norway with my day job. I am building Kørt because, in my corporate career, I was traveling internationally regularly but could never find the bag that did all the functions I needed. Travel size laptop bag, great for in the board room and customer meetings, easy to take around while exploring the city I was in, and could also take me to a bar or black tie event, and then become a backpack to take on the plane when I was flying home the next day. In all my travels I didn't find anything, so I created it myself. I am building my company right from the start. I am fully focused on the entire supply chain of my materials and manufacturing.

Babies grow out of clothing real fast. Parents want the best for their kids and for the planet that they will be growing up on. Add to this the fact that the production of clothing is extremly resource-intensive, and the fact that parents report that baby clothing is a real hassle, then you have a problem that needs a solution. That is where STAS comes in - we provide a digital service for baby clothing on a monthly subscription basis. Once the items are too small, our customers send them back, and then receive the next batch. All clothing items that are returned are processed and either re-used by other clients or re-cycled. We have tested the concept and received excellent user feedback, now we're getting rigged for full commerical expansion. if you're interested, please get in touch.
