WeWantToKnow

WeWantToKnow is a French-Norwegian company that focuses on Game-Based Learning. Its first product is the math game "DragonBox" and it has more games in the planning stages. The company was founded by financial analyst turned math teacher Jean-Baptiste Huyhn, the leading French game developer Patrick Marchal, and former Opera Software executives Rolf Assev and Christen Krogh. WeWantToKnow aims to make learning fun, easy and addictive. DragonBox does away with tedious equations and math quizzes, replacing them instead with a simple game involving cards and a magical box. The game evolves as kids master the skills and concepts presented. After one hour of playing DragonBox, twelve-year olds can tackle equations their parents struggle to solve. DragonBox was pre-launched in Norway to let schools, kids and parents test the game. Almost immediately, it rocketed to the top of the charts, becoming the most purchased app in the Apple App Store in Norway-- displacing other, more traditional games - check it out at - www.dragonbox.com
Education

Møllefossen Cafe

Jeg ville ikke prøvd å beskrive dere som én startup med én problemstilling. Det interessante er nettopp at kandidaten kommer inn i et lite økosystem av ekte virksomheter og nye konsepter. På The Hub er det en styrke, særlig for den typen tech/AI-nysgjerrige student vi vil ha. Jeg ville skrevet det slik: About us We have a slightly unusual setup. We run several businesses and projects across hospitality, consumer products, media and design. Some are established businesses with employees, customers and real revenue. Others are early-stage ideas we are currently trying to turn into something real. Møllefossen is a café, event venue and hospitality concept in Oslo. We are building a premium Norwegian mineral water brand. We work with wine import, are developing new consumer products, and are currently launching a podcast. More ideas tend to appear faster than we can execute them. That is essentially the problem we are trying to solve. We are good at coming up with concepts, building businesses, finding opportunities and getting things moving. But today, a surprisingly large part of turning an idea into reality is digital: a website needs to be built, a brand needs an identity, something needs to be filmed, a product needs packaging, a podcast needs to become 15 good clips, or an idea needs to be tested before spending weeks and a lot of money on it. AI is changing how much a very small team can actually do. We want to take advantage of that properly – not by generating endless mediocre content, but by combining good taste, creativity and new technology to move much faster from “we should do this” to “it’s live.” That is why we are looking for someone who gets genuinely excited by having Framer open in one window, ChatGPT or Claude in another, a half-finished Reel on the screen and a completely new project landing on their desk the following week. If you need a clearly defined corporate job description and six months of planning before launching something, this probably isn’t the right place. If that sounds like fun, it might be.

Indo Naturals

Indo Naturals delivers zero-plastic everyday products helping people on the journey to a sustainable lifestyle. The products are made utilizing the vast natural resources of rural India. These resources are often left unused, while millions of people living within the nature, are increasingly getting poorer. Producing plant-based products in India is a unique opportunity to reduce plastic waste from everyday lives in Scandinavia and Norway, while contributing to reduced poverty in rural India. We are a small team of Scandinavians and Indians working across borders to create both a zero-waste brand and a disruption of business as usual. The social purpose of Indo Naturals drives the team forward through the challenges arising when starting a company based on International trade and strong ethical standards. This drive probably comes from our shared love for exploring nature and new cultures, and therefore our strong desire to preserve the oceans, the natural world, and the diversity of the human world society.

ProgBit

Progbit is an independent design center helping you to convert your idea into your product. We have wide knowledge of electronic design covering all aspects from hardware to embedded systems including processor and FPGAs. Our main focus is implementing advanced functions in FPGAs and ASICs. ProgBit was founded April 1st 2014 by three experienced designers from Nera/Ceragon and Mikrokrets. We have broad knowledge of radio, modem, telecom, datacom and ultrasound. There are many potential pitfalls when designing FPGA and ASICs. To avoid these, Progbit has a strong focus on design methodologies. This includes partition of the design, naming conventions, clock domain crossing, state machines, reset methodologies and so on. All this is to avoid design errors that can be so hard to debug. ProgBit has also focus on making the FPGA code readable and reusable. This includes sensible signal names and heavy commenting in the code. This makes it easy for anyone to take the code and do improvements in the future. Our target is to design the FPGA together with you and improve your knowledge during the design process. Hence you will be able to maintain and further develop the design afterwards.

Budalstolen

Budalstolen er en norsk møbelprodusent, grunnlagt I 2015, med ambisjoner om å videreforedle og forvalte det lokale stol ikonet nasjonalt og internasjonalt. Med inspirasjon fra den engelske Windsor-stolen er den folkekjære Budalstolen laget I et utall varianter av gårdbrukere fra Budal og omeng siden 1807. Vi har igjennom en modernisert omskrivning av denne utbredte folkestolen økt kvaliteten og komforten betraktelig ved å forkusere på godt håndverk, høy finnish og et estetisk uttrykk med lang varighet.    Windsor stolen, som har eksistert siden 1700-tallet, ble allerede den gang fremstilt på en måte som dannet forløperen til det vi I dag kjenner som moderne møbelproduksjon. Ulike spesialiserte virksomheter leveret komponenter til stolen, som deride ben, massive seter, spiler og buer til ryggene. Sammenstillingen foregikk hos andre virksomheter – og på samme måte som produsenter I dag jobbet de I et nettverk av spesialiserte leverandører for å oppnå best mulig sluttresultat. Vi I Budalstolen har videreført denne opprinnelige tilnærmingen der blandingen av spesialisert industri og godt håndverk danner grunnlaget for den høyeste kvalitet og beste finnish på stoler som skal fungere I generasjoner.    Designer Ole Petter Wullum har - I samarbeid med flere av Europas beste leverandører innen treforedling – skånsomt modernisert og forbedret Budalstolen til et komfortabelt møbel med høy estetisk og teknisk kvalitet.

Tenol - Connecting Youth With Opportunity

Tenol is developing a structured recruitment platform to help young candidates and local businesses solve the gap between first-job seekers and relevant entry-level job opportunities through practical matching, candidate screening and a clearer recruitment process. Many young people struggle to get their first job, not necessarily because they lack motivation, but because the path into work is unclear. They often do not know where to start, how to present themselves, or how to become visible to employers. At the same time, many businesses need motivated people for full- or part-time roles, extra help, weekend shifts and practical tasks, but do not always have the time or structure to find and assess young candidates properly. This creates a gap between young people who want to work and businesses that need help. Tenol is focused on making that connection easier, safer and more structured. Tenol helps candidates register their interest, availability and profile in a structured way. Businesses can describe their needs, such as role, working hours, requirements and preferred candidate profile. Tenol then works to match candidates with relevant opportunities based on practical fit, including availability, motivation, role requirements and communication. Instead of only forwarding names, Tenol aims to provide businesses with clearer candidate shortlists and structured candidate presentations. The goal is to reduce friction for businesses while giving young candidates a more professional and understandable path into working life. The motivation behind Tenol comes from seeing how difficult the first step into working life can be for many young people. A lot of candidates are motivated, but they are not always given a clear or fair way to show it. At the same time, businesses often need reliable help, but the process of finding young candidates can be time-consuming and unstructured. Tenol was started because this connection can be better. First jobs matter. They build confidence, experience, responsibility and future opportunities. Tenol exists to make that first connection between candidate and employer more practical, structured and human.

Tind Studio

Tind Studio is an AI consultancy that helps Nordic businesses turn AI from hype into working solutions, through hands-on advisory, custom implementations, and team enablement. Most companies know AI will reshape their business but don't know where to start. Tools are everywhere, vendors overpromise, and internal teams lack the time and expertise to separate signal from noise. The result: stalled pilots, wasted spend, and missed competitive advantage. We work side-by-side with leadership and operational teams to identify high-value AI use cases, build custom solutions (agents, automations, internal tools, AI-powered workflows), and train teams to actually use them. Pragmatic, fast, and focused on real business outcomes, not demos. The Why Founder Joakim saw too many companies burning budget on AI projects that never shipped or never got adopted. Tind exists to close that gap, turning AI from a boardroom topic into measurable results in the day-to-day work.
