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.

Lapee

Lapee, the female urinal. “Lapee gives women and people who need to pee squatting a quick, safe and hygienic way out.” Urinals for men have been around for a long time, but women and people who need to pee squatting have been long overlooked. For them the need to relieve themselves in public, at events or at festivals always comes with great difficulty. The lines for closed toilet cabins are always long and only two other options present themselves: going without peeing or finding an improvised and unsafe place to pee. Both are highly problematic and degrading. Lapee is a simple solution to a long standing example of gender inequality; Lapee gives women and people who need to pee squatting a quick, safe and hygienic way out. Behind this idea of developing peeing equality are Gina (FR) and Alexander (DK), two architects who graduated from the Royal Danish Academy in Copenhagen in Spring, 2017. They were working as architects for the famous Roskilde Festival when they thought and developed Lapee. Today, Lapee is available for rent in 20 countries through 30 partners. Join the movement!

BirdsatFive

At BirdsAtFive, we’re building Birdie – a platform that finally fixes the biggest reason most AI tools fail in B2B marketing: bad input. AI can write fast, but if it doesn’t know your brand, your market, your goals, or your customers — it just makes things up. That’s a huge risk for marketing teams trying to move fast and stay on-message. Birdie changes that. We structure all of a company’s GTM knowledge — from strategy decks and sales insights to product positioning and audience research — and use it to power AI tools that create content that’s on-strategy, on-brand, and actually useful. We’re not building generic chatbots. We’re building the execution engine modern B2B teams need to go from idea to campaign — with AI that doesn’t guess, but understands.

Affluency

Affluency is an AI-powered Co-Pilot for traders and investors, a platform that combines advanced trade journaling, personal development, and real-time feedback to help users achieve both financial and mental mastery. We’re solving a major problem in the trading world: Most traders don’t fail due to poor strategy, they fail due to a lack of discipline, emotional control, and self-analysis. Our platform collects and analyzes trading data, emotional patterns, and behavioral decisions to deliver AI-generated insights in real-time. Through interactive widgets, structured checklists, and psychological feedback, Affluency becomes a daily companion that helps users grow, not only as traders, but as individuals. We are bridging the gap between technical trading and mental performance, a connection that has been largely overlooked in the market. Why now? The timing has never been better. The global surge in retail trading and investing combined with the rise of AI has created a massive demand for smarter, more personalized trading tools. Millions of traders are entering the market, yet most platforms still focus only on technical features, ignoring the psychological and behavioral aspects that truly define long-term success. At the same time, the fintech ecosystem is rapidly evolving, and users now expect intelligent, real-time support that adapts to their unique trading behavior and emotional patterns. Affluency is at the intersection of these trends. By launching now, we meet a growing demand for tools that go beyond charts and indicators, tools that help traders master their discipline, emotions, and strategic decision-making through AI-driven insights and personal development. We’re not just riding a wave, we’re shaping the next generation of trading platforms.

Sikr

Sikr is the first company specializing in Cyber Security (CS) for Small and Midsized Enterprises (SMEs). We have a product, we have a few paying customers, and we are EU-funded though the Danish National Coordination Center for Cyber Security. Which is documented at https://ncc-dk.dk/ under supported projects pool 2, and their post on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/posts/ncc-dk-danmark-cybersecurity-coordination-centre_ncc-dk-netv%C3%A6rksm%C3%B8de-05022025-save-the-activity-7282724478550241280-YCw3 "Sikr" is in Danish pronounced "sikker" which means "safe", and we own the domain sikr.it & sikr-it.dk. We have developed a platform that helps SMEs to get basic CS, in a way that is as easy for the company to implement our products, while it is very non-intrusive and hands-off for us, and while it is as cheap as possible. The problem SMEs have with CS: Complexity and Cost: Many existing IT security solutions are designed for large corporations, making them overly complex and financially out of reach for SMEs.​ Lack of Resources: SMEs often lack dedicated IT departments, leaving them vulnerable to cyber threats without adequate protection or support.​ This issue leaves smaller businesses exposed to cyber risks, with limited options for effective and manageable security solutions, that in theory could have been avoided very easily. Why does this matter? Cybersecurity is not just a concern for large corporations; SMEs are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals, which most often puts them out of business. By providing a user-friendly, and affordable security solutions, Sikr empowers smaller businesses to protect their digital assets, maintain customer trust, and ensure business continuity.
