We use AI to automate public tendering, an industry that has stood almost still for decades. Today we work with some of Europe's largest tendering players, and much of our growth comes inbound. This market is being created right now, and we want someone on board who wants to win it. Demand for the product is higher than ever, and we're scaling further both in Norway and across Europe, with existing customers opening doors for us. To succeed, we need talented people on the team who want to help build something internationally unique from Norway. The team consists of serial founders, developers, and AI experts who have built Cobrief from zero to one of Norway's fastest-growing SaaS companies. We're small enough that everyone has real influence, and ambitious enough that what you do actually matters. At Cobrief, distribution is part of the product, so sales has the entire team behind it. Now we're looking for a Sales Representative to join us. Someone who wants to drive our sales engine from inbound to outbound, and who wants to help scale Cobrief from Norway to Europe.

Luminik is the event pipeline platform for B2B marketing and RevOps teams using Salesforce or HubSpot. When an attendee list, booth notes and follow-up live in separate tools, the event marketer has to piece together what happened and which opportunities came from the event. Luminik connects that work from event preparation through CRM attribution. Teams use Luminik to source attendee lists, enrich contact and company details through the vendors they already use, score attendees against their ideal customer profile, and prepare event-specific outreach. On the event floor, reps capture contacts and conversation notes. After the event, teams review follow-up and sourced and influenced pipeline using their CRM data. We are building Luminik for teams with pipeline targets for conferences and trade shows. Our focus is helping marketing and sales work from the same event context, with Salesforce or HubSpot remaining the system of record.

We are developing a platform to help owners of renewable power plants and their service providers gaining access to the right information at the right time, enabling the right decisions. In order to achieve this we deconstruct the hundreds of documents describing each plant into snippets of information in accordance with our domain-driven data model. In the next 7 years, the world needs to invest almost twice what has been invested into renewable energy generation in the last 20 years. At the same time subsidies are being rolled back, increasing the need to for ensuring that projected ROI is not compromised by underperformance of the investments (i.e. plants). We have lived the pain, and know that NOW is the time to transform the way commercial management of renewable energy plants is being done.

IT.no ble stiftet sent i 2020 med en klar visjon om å forenkle IT og digitalisere Norges bedrifter. Målet var å klare dette med til gunstige priser og den beste kundereisen med ansatte som har langvarig erfaring fra bransjen. Vi skulle bistå både som en komplett IT-avdeling for bedriftene, men også for muligheten til å begrense tilbudet til medhjelpere for eksisterende IT-ressurser hos kundene. Gründerne i selskapet har begge langvarig erfaring fra ISP og IT bransjen der de bygget opp egne avdelinger. Det var viktig at både en tekniker og en selger begge stod på eiersiden for å ivareta produkt og service så vel som det kommersielle. NØKKELINFO 7MNOK omsetning 2021 183% omsetningsvekst 2022. 11 Ansatte herav 9 teknikere, en selger og en utvikler Ingen eksterne eiere Tilbyr komplette IT-løsninger Oslo basert hovedkontor UTVIKLING Med produkt, “go to market” strategi, visjon og gode innkjøpsavtaler lanserte vi selskapet mot det Norske bedriftsmarkedet i 2021. Det tok ikke lang tid til før flere anerkjente bedrifter stod på kundelisten og flere dyktige ansatte tiltrådde. Selskapet selger i dag hovedsakelig basert på anbefalinger bedrifter i mellom med kun en aktiv selger, men har måttet stoppe salg ved flere for å ivareta gode kundereiser. Vi starter nå et nytt selskap som skal fornye maskinvare/hardware markedet B2B som er bygget på en plattform vi utvikler.
