Today, Dogu has a team of 19 brave nerds working from 5 offices to build and operate amazing products: SalesScreen and LiveScreen.The name Dogu is an acronym for Data og Utvikling which in Norwegian means Data and Development. We would have trademarked it, but Dogu happens to also be a Japanese mythical figurine dating back to over 10 000 years ago.So, what sets us apart and what makes us special?Aside from our finesse at the most important of startup sports, such as foosball, pingpong and beer pong, we do a LOT of activities together. We have a monthly budget for team building, which can be used for anything from Friday lunches at a restaurant to GoKarts and Lazer Tag to buying a new BBQ grill or Playstation 4 to play. But it’s not the STUFF that’s important, it’s the PEOPLE. Every day, we talk about the importance of building great culture. We invest in our people, in a BIG way!Professional development and growth is hugely important to us and we place a premium on face-to-face time and team building activities. We serve as groomsmen in each other’s weddings, we enjoy hanging out together on the weekends, and we plan each other’s bachelor parties. As cliche’ as it may sound, we really are best friends… and at the end of the day, that commitment that we have to each other pours out in our passion for building great products.We have a very horizontal leadership structure and do things not because we have to but because we want to. This company is 100% employee owned and we all care about the growth and success because we are invested in it… I’m not talking financially, I’m talking emotionally. We care about what we do and while one of our product mottos is “Never stop at “good enough” when you can be GREAT!”, we strive to go beyond great. We want to be known as entrepreneurs who dream big, plan well and dare to do the impossible.In addition to what sets us apart as people, there are some unique traits that set us apart as a company:1. We are bootstrappedDogu has never received outside funding. This has taught us a great deal about the need of creating great products that people are willing to pay money for, being cost-savings minded and adopting an agile approach to all aspects of our business.2. We are employee-ownedDogu is 100% owned by 12 of its employees keeping shareholders’ and employees’ interests completely aligned.3. We are profitableSince 2012, the company has been been profitable every single year.4. We are growingSince 2012, Dogu has grown its revenues by over 185% year-over-year.5. We are idea-drivenTop-to-bottom decision making is not our strongest suit. We always encourage everyone to come up with, debate and implement new ideas.6. We are distributedBack in the day, Dogu was located in one office in Trondheim. Our team is now distributed across Norway (Trondheim, Oslo, Bergen), USA (San Diego), France (Bayeux) and Holland (Amsterdam).7. We are flexibleWhile sitting together is necessary sometimes, we do not believe that you need to sit in an office from 9 to 17 to do your best work. We empower our team to work from where they want and on a flexible time schedule. All one needs is a laptop and a good internet connection.8. We are geared upAs true digital craftsmen, we want nothing but the best tools to do our work. We use the best tools available, such as Slack, Zoom, Office 365, Dropbox, Pipedrive, Trello, Github and of course, SalesScreen.9. We are brave nerdsWe love technology and are never scared to push the boundaries of what is possible. Our team may not be the largest but our developers are surely amongst the brightest.10. We are business mindedTechnology is only useful when it helps individuals and organizations achieve what was previously not possible. We strive everyday to understand our customers and find ways to help drive their business to become more profitable.11. We are agileWe are a small team and we cherish this. It has forced us to be agile in everything we do, to iterate quickly through possible solutions and to continuously bring improvements to our products and to our organization.12. We are independentWe are a small company with big responsibilities and we flourish with team work. But we are also good at taking ownership to get things done when we see something that needs to be improved.13. We are trustworthyIn the course of a few years, we have gone from being a 3 man unknown consultancy company to becoming a company with Products trusted by some of the most renowned companies in the Nordics: Nordea, Gjensidige, Subaru, Schibsted, Privatmegleren, Visma.14. We are familyWe see the Dogu team as a tightly knitted family who shares memories together and will keepon writing great stories. That also means that we try to include our better halves for social events.15.

Bryte provides buildings owners with clean and profitable energy storage to turn power into profits. Solar installations create new opportunities for commercial and industrial building owners to save money and contribute to a cleaner environment. However, the size of a solar panel system can quickly be limited in size because of regulations where the cost of selling or managing surplus energy outweigh the benefits – unless the surplus is stored in batteries. Bryte uses proprietary flow battery technology to provide building owners with safe and affordable energy storage.

The whole world is striving with textile waste! Most circular economy-based action plans are mostly based on recycling and sorting and not repairing, re-making, re-using and sharing. How can we combine sustainability, circular economy and women empowering in one practical local and global plan? In today textile market, clothing and textile sales rises while clothing usage has steadily declined! While the cost of repair service is high, the number of service providers is also very limited and considering all thrift solutions, the majority of secondhand materials are still going to Lindfield while it can be used as material. And as the last leg of this international picture, today's available solutions are mostly based on recruiting service providers instead of giving them the opportunity to be the owner of their business which make the sustainability of those models strictly dependent on the those business owners instead of relying on the owners of the practical knowledge and craft. Repasdo is a marketplace for unique, creative services of textile and relevant secondhand materials. It’s home to people providing special, extraordinary services and products, from repaired pieces to handcrafted and vintage treasures. While today’s main trend is into secondhand shopping online solutions, Repasdo focus is to provide possibility to create ‘added value’ instead of pure thrift store business model. By providing business and market opportunity (online store + learning, low cost material & equipment) to potential service providers, secondhand textile can be repaired or be used as raw material for new product (in as many different ways as service providers can manage to come up with). Repasdo Platform (as the first in its market) is to provide a platform for creating jobs, micro and small businesses (own by service providers) while providing practical learning and access to different type of secondhand textile as material and online stores as places for those businesses to thrive. We are three co-founders with background in strategic business and organizational development, application and software development, and fashion design and learning. In addition two of us have long years of experience in humanitarian aid organizations and woman empowering programs. We have strong believe in sustainability and circularity not in relation with of product and service, but as the sole practical concept and business model
