Norway in a Box

Transparently NorwegianWe carefully select guaranteed Norwegian products, ship them via our own "digital highway of trust" to ourselves (in China) and sell them directly to end-users in the world (starting with China) through our own e-Commerce platform (and soon in our own retail stores). We are in business, we control the whole value chain, we do it differently and our concept can't be copied by big American tech or food companies. We also represent business opportunities for other companies.  Xuechun Zhang. Educated in economics and finance, 13 years’ employment at China Construction Bank.

Fjording

In the Nordics we produce high quality alcohol beverages. Spirits we are utterly proud of.  Now it's due for someone to blend these products with cow's milk, add classic Nordic berries and fruits, and create a whole new series of Premium Cream Liqueurs for the International market.  In contrary to Irish cream which is based on whiskey, the Nordic Cream are going to be based on traditional Nordic spirits, like the aquavit. In a typical Fjording Nordic Cream recipe you'll find aquavit/vodka/fruit spirits, cream, honey/sugar or other sweetening, and then juice from berries and fruits from the Nordic fauna. Not just aromas and concentrates - the real deal. It shall be as local, genuine and organic as possible. Except from the sugar we'll be looking for the ingredients in our nearby surroundings.

Billify

At Billify, we are building a professional invoice and receipt generator designed specifically for freelancers, entrepreneurs, and small businesses who need a fast, simple, and professional way to handle their billing. Every day, millions of independent professionals struggle with invoicing. They either waste hours formatting Word or Excel templates, or they overpay for complex accounting software that was never designed for them. The result? Lost time, delayed payments, and a lack of professional credibility with clients. In Europe and the U.S. alone, more than 50 million freelancers face this problem on a regular basis — a massive market that continues to grow as the freelance economy expands. Billify exists to solve this problem. Our product allows users to create invoices in under 60 seconds, with sleek, customizable templates that look professional and inspire confidence. Receipts, payment tracking, and client management are integrated into a single, intuitive workflow. Unlike traditional accounting tools, Billify doesn’t overwhelm users with unnecessary features — instead, we focus on speed, simplicity, and design. Our “secret sauce” is the ability to combine professional output with an effortless user experience that anyone can master instantly. The motivation behind Billify comes from our own frustration as entrepreneurs. We’ve seen first-hand how administrative tasks eat up valuable time that should be spent growing a business. We know the stress of chasing payments and the embarrassment of sending poorly formatted invoices. That’s why we’re committed to building the easiest and most accessible invoicing solution on the market. We believe that by eliminating unnecessary complexity, we can help entrepreneurs save time, get paid faster, and focus on what they do best. Now, we’re looking for a Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to join us on this journey. As CTO, you won’t just be writing code — you’ll be shaping the future of the product and the company. You’ll help us scale Billify into a trusted global brand for freelancers and small businesses. You’ll have ownership over the technology roadmap, lead development, and ensure we continue to deliver a product that is reliable, secure, and a joy to use. This is an opportunity to join at an early stage and make a lasting impact. If you’re passionate about building simple tools that solve real problems, if you thrive on innovation and want to help millions of entrepreneurs succeed, then we’d love to talk with you.

Staffer.ai

Staffer.ai — Fully Automated Hiring for Modern Teams Staffer.ai is a fully automated hiring platform built to serve lean, fast-moving companies that want to attract, assess, and hire top talent without the usual bottlenecks of traditional recruiting. Designed for startups and SMBs, Staffer eliminates the manual busywork of sourcing, screening, and coordination—so teams can focus on selecting the best candidates, not chasing them. What Staffer Does Staffer.ai combines deep recruiting expertise with advanced AI to automate 80% of the hiring process: • Sourcing: AI scouts and engages high-quality passive candidates who aren’t actively applying. • Outreach: Automated outreach and job distribution to maximize visibility—no manual posting. • Screening: Built-in assessments for both hard and soft skills, tailored to the role. • Scheduling: Integrated calendar and video tools handle all interview logistics. • Candidate Experience: A self-service portal keeps applicants informed and engaged. • Workflows: A centralized dashboard offers full transparency into the hiring funnel. • Branding: Instantly create branded, high-converting career pages. • Reference Checks: Automated reference collection—structured and time-saving.

Startup Founders (10–100 people) • Pain: Hiring falls on the founders, but time is scarce. • Solution: Staffer runs a full process behind the scenes—sourcing, screening, and scheduling—so founders can move fast without drowning in admin. 2. Department Heads (Eng, Design, Sales) • Pain: No hiring expertise, unclear where to start, and overwhelmed by conflicting responsibilities. • Solution: Staffer gives them a plug-and-play hiring system—templates, assessments, workflows—that’s easy to manage and easy to trust. 3. People & Talent Leaders (50–300 people) • Pain: Coordinating hiring across departments with no unified tools. • Solution: Staffer standardizes hiring across teams, provides full visibility, and empowers managers with self-serve tools.

Weave Reality

Welcome to Weave Reality, an exciting spinoff of Breach VR. We're immersed in the vibrant world of XR (eXtended Reality), where Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR) intersect. But Weave Reality is more than just an offshoot; it's the culmination of shared knowledge and resources. Situated in the same office space as our parent company, we benefit from a vast pool of talents, including 3D artists, developers, and designers. This synergy allows us to focus our work within the XR domain, much like our parent company. We have two goals: to use the vast insights from Breach and pursue our innovative R&D projects. Over the past three years, we've explored various concepts, from gaming to education, both theoretical and practical. With the fast-paced changes in XR, we're ready to level up our activities. At Weave Reality, we're the weavers of extraordinary experiences in the XR landscape. As part of the Breach family, we have access to abundant resources and expertise. Our approach is flexible and imaginative, allowing us to explore many projects. We might be small still, but we're passionate about making better realities – one 'thread' at a time.
