FoodFarm is an integrated platform that allows companies to arrange food for their employees, and have it brought to their offices daily. It is an alternative to the traditional canteen. It offers users a selection of kitchens and food types to choose from ordered via the app. Companies can choose from a range of kitchens , change them when desired and individual employees can also unsubscribe. All these actions are automated, which translates to: high speed and efficiency. Food Farm is so much more than just ordering your lunch. What we offer is the world's first co-created food platform.In essence, this means that we strive to deliver food in the most efficient way possible by engaging with each user in our value chain. When we started, we wanted to make ordering food cheaper but in our efforts to do so, we realized we had started building a new system for food services. Our vision is to connect every aspect of the value chain from the person producing the food to the person growing it to the final consumer. In doing so and with better communication between these different actors, we hope to reduce food waste not just within Norway, but also on a global level. Our business model is very lean and we don't need a lot of resources to enter other markets and we know that that is where we would like to be to contribute towards addressing the larger issue of food waste.

We're builders who love teaching what we do. Vibelabs helps everyone become builders, teaching people with no coding experience how to build software and tools with AI. Nearly 1,000 people have gone through our programs, including teams from Telenor, OBOS, Mesta, and other leading Norwegian organizations. We partner with StartupLab to bring AI skills to corporate innovators and early-stage founders. But we don't just teach, we build. We launch our own ventures, and help founders, operators, and small teams turn ideas into real, scalable products. Combining AI-native workflows, rapid prototyping, and modern product thinking, we move fast without cutting corners. From early MVPs to production-ready platforms, we focus on execution, clarity, and momentum. The barrier to building software just dropped to near zero. Companies that get this will move faster. People who get this will have a massive edge. We're here to make sure as many as possible get there, practically, not theoretically.

Silicon Valhalla is a Nordic tech intelligence hub that maps startups, founders, investors, and market signals across the Nordic region, with a particular emphasis on AI, SaaS, and frontier innovation. It exists to make the “Silicon Valhalla” ecosystem - Nordic tech’s answer to Silicon Valley - more visible, navigable, and investable for founders, operators, and capital. The platform combines a curated startup directory, an events calendar, and ecosystem insights into a single, neutral entry point for Nordic tech. Startups and scaleups get structured profiles highlighting what they do, where they are based, which sector they play in, and how to reach them, while investors and partners can quickly scan emerging companies across AI, climate, fintech, deep tech, and more. A continuously updated view of companies and activity aims to surface momentum early, so users can spot new categories, breakout teams, and upcoming fundraising stories before they hit the mainstream. Silicon Valhalla is designed to be independent and ecosystem-first rather than a job board or paywalled database. The service is currently free to use, making discovery accessible while opening the door for future premium offerings such as featured profiles, highlighted events, and deeper signal products for investors and corporates. In short, Silicon Valhalla is building the default map and narrative for Nordic tech: a living overview of the startups, talent, and ideas turning the region into one of the most dynamic innovation hubs in Europe.

Easy Eiendom – Company Description Easy Eiendom is a data intelligence company transforming how the real estate industry understands risk, value, and opportunity. Founded in 2024, we are building Norway’s most comprehensive property and geospatial data platform by merging traditional real estate information with advanced GIS and Big Data analytics. Our mission is to create a unified system that replaces today’s fragmented and manual workflows with automated, precise, and real-time insight. Real estate is the world’s largest asset class, yet its data infrastructure remains outdated and scattered across incompatible sources. Banks, insurers, developers, municipalities, consultants, and investors all face the same challenge: critical information about a property—its structure, land conditions, environmental exposure, infrastructure, regulations, and market dynamics—is siloed in dozens of systems. These blind spots increase risk, slow decision-making, inflate costs, and reduce transparency. Easy Eiendom was founded to solve this problem. We are building a high-fidelity database that integrates property records, building information, environmental risk layers, climate indicators, geotechnical data, mobility patterns, infrastructure networks, demographic trends, and private datasets—into one cohesive system. On top of this data we use advanced GIS workflows, automated analysis pipelines, and AI-driven insight models to deliver precise, standardized, and actionable intelligence. Our platform cuts research time by up to 80% and reduces analytical cost by 50%. Instead of manually searching through fragmented sources, users get instant access to automated risk assessments, geospatial analyses, and property insights that are continuously updated and delivered with high accuracy. Easy Eiendom helps banks improve collateral evaluations, insurers price risk more intelligently, developers assess feasibility faster, and investors make better decisions with complete situational awareness. We are driven by a simple belief: better data leads to lower risk, higher returns, and a more transparent market. Easy Eiendom exists because we experienced firsthand how inefficient and error-prone today’s workflows are. The spark came from the realization that professionals spend more time gathering data than analyzing it—while missing crucial geographical context that fundamentally shapes risk. We are building the platform we wish existed: a unified operating system for real estate intelligence, inspired by the ambition of becoming the “Palantir for property and geospatial data.” Our goal is to empower every professional who depends on property information—with clarity, speed, and confidence. We are not just building a tool; we are building the data foundation the modern real estate market needs.

AEO og SEO – synlighet i både Google og AI-søk I 2026 holder det ikke lenger å kun rangere i Google. Vi hjelper bedrifter med å optimalisere innholdet sitt både for tradisjonelle søkemotorer (SEO) og for AI-assistenter som ChatGPT, Gemini og Perplexity (AEO – Answer Engine Optimization). Dette handler om å strukturere innhold med tydelige svar, semantisk HTML og schema markup som gjør det enkelt for både Google og AI-motorer å forstå og sitere nettsiden din. Når konkurrentene dine fortsatt jakter på Google-trafikk, har du allerede posisjonert deg som ekspert i AI-søk og blir sitert som kilde når potensielle kunder stiller spørsmål i din bransje.

ABchar is developing a new type of pyrolysis reactor, affordable heating and the possibility of small-scale biochar production, adapted to agriculture.. This will help achieve the goal of a 40% reduction in emissions from the agricultural sector. What is pyrolysis? Simply put, this is the heating of an organic material without access to oxygen. This leads to a series of reactions that ultimately result in 3 main products; biochar, oil and gas. We want to utilize the biochar in this process. The oil and gas will be burned and the heat from this will be used to dry grain, heat barns, greenhouses, residential buildings and other things that need heat on a farm. Why pyrolysis and biochar? Plants absorb CO2 from the air around us through photosynthesis. They are actually extremely good at this too. The residual product is mainly oxygen and the plant material. The great thing about pyrolysis is that we are able to separate water, oxygen and hydrogen from the plant material and we are left with more or less pure carbon 80% +. This is carbon from the air! If we take this coal and spread it on our agricultural land, it will be stored there for up to 1000 years and perhaps longer. In some cases, the soil will become more fertile and less vulnerable to periods of too much or too little water.
