Spect8 is a norwegian tech startup with a mission to help sports organizations, pro-athletes and sponsors that don’t have enough time, capacity, or the necessary skills to reach their potential in growing fan engagement and commercial value. Due to the power of association among consumers, brands allocate an increasing amount of their advertising budgets towards sports teams and athletes. To measure the value of a sponsorship, sponsors rely on manual measurements and expensive consulting services. At the same time, athletes, clubs, and federations are left with few resources to decide what their commercial value is, and often forfeit revenue (and funding for their sport) by underselling their commercial value. To solve this problem, we have developed a tool called Foqus. Foqus is an easy-to-use machine learning tool created for sports teams and individual athletes to determine their commercial value for sponsorships, and for brands to manage and measure multiple agreements. We are currently working with Norsk Toppfotball, sports associations, clubs and and several brands, and are off to a good start to reach our goal of creating a new industry standard for how sponsorship value is created, measured, and driven. The existing team consists of three business developers with expertise in strategy, marketing, sponsorship, data and analysis. In addition, we have associated development teams with both front-end, back-end and database expertise. We have recently become a part of StartupLab's Accelerator program, are supported by Innovation Norway and have ambitions to scale our business both nationally and internationally in the coming years. We therefore wish to expand our team with a skilled developer who also wants to make a professional career as an entrepreneur. The CTO will have the overall responsibility for the further development and scaling of our core product, Foqus, as well as the development of new tools and concepts going forward.

Research shows that 80% of Small business owners and startups don't have the tools, time or budget to make videos at the volume and quality needed to compete. So I decided to create an alternative route for SMBs and startups to reach the market - this one is via low cost, high-quality video production marketplace. Optix.io is a two-sided creative marketplace that connects creative video freelancers with SMBs and startups and brings them together to work quickly, reliably, and flexibly at a fixed cost. We have done lots of research in this field (as our team has an extensive background in video creation for the biggest brands and companies, and we know what mistakes are most common for the clients and freelancers. That's why we have drafted the right set of options to provide the perfect outcome. How It All Works. The client uploads a brief of what they would like to film, pick a date and time, confirm terms and conditions hit pay; we will then match them with a creative freelancer that will show up on the date, film edit and deliver on the same day. Freelancers will be able to capture more of their earning potential without having to compromise on quality. At the same time, clients can get more value for their money by tapping into the creative minds of independent creators. I'm Farzad, founder of Optix.io. I have over 17 years of experience in video creation. I have worked for the biggest brands and companies in Norway like TV2 and internationally like Google, Siemens and MTV. I have always had multiple requests from SMBs and startups to create content for them, but unfortunately, they couldn't always afford the rates, so with Optix, I'm making it affordable and effective. Optix is a small startup from Oslo/Norway, and We believe in small businesses. So we're here to help them grow and create the best video content possible from start to finish. And hope you can join us on our journey. ​ optixmedia.io | matchmade to create

Norway’s unique landscape necessitates one of the most extensive tunnel networks in the world. 1800 road and rail tunnels contribute to 9000km of tunnel in Norway. These are inspected manually by eye and on foot, a time-consuming and hazardous process producing only qualitative data on tunnel safety. To combat these issues, Techrail aims to provide an integrated solution that is safer for inspectors, that does not interfere with traffic, and more comprehensively evaluates the safety of tunnels. Our solution enables the measuring the change of a tunnel’s surface over time, which allows tunnel directors to predict maintenance needs and more accurately evaluate the state of their tunnels. A digital paper trail will also aid regulators in overseeing tunnel maintenance. Furthermore, our technology has a large number of secondary uses that provide value such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), tunnel construction, and crack detection.
