Lokalist

Who we are Each year in Denmark, over 2 million people upgrade their smartphones, but few have a clear idea of what to do with their previous device. Of course, they could sell it or trade it in, but today these options are primarily perceived as a hassle, a scam, or a waste of time. This results in Danes often having two or more smartphones wasting in a dusty drawer. Our mission to reduce this waste and to make the best use of their potential by providing a transparent, fair, and simple way to ensure that our old technology gets used to its fullest extent. The user can then support sustainable causes through our platform with the value of their used phones. Why do we exist? Used phones are extremely valuable. In fact, every year we estimate that at least one billion kroner worth of used phones enters the market in Denmark alone. On top of this, smartphone production has tremendous environmental and social impacts that are seldom talked about. Making the best use of minerals and labor that has already been put into our phones is the least we can do. Through research, we found that most people do not sell or trade-in their devices today for various reasons. However, over 90% of people responded that they would donate the value that their used phone could be sold for, entirely or in part, to philanthropic causes so long as it was easy and transparent. Therefore, not only are the causes we support genuinely good, but they provide the motivation to awaken a large and growing market. Today there is no platform where this can easily be done. Lokalist aims to fill this gap in the market and be the platform where people and businesses can easily donate all or part of the value of their used technology to support sustainable actions we all want to see more of. What happens to the used phones? The used phones we receive are safely wiped, complying with Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). They then have a 92% chance to be refurbished or harvested for working components. The semi-new phones are sold in markets across the world to be loved by future users. The phones that cannot be refurbished are responsibly recycled, making sure to reuse minerals that are otherwise impactful to mine. Our values As a company, we focus heavily on integrating the Nordic values of transparency, honesty, community, and simplicity into our mission. This is not typical of our competitors in this space. By being active in the carrying-out of the sustainable causes with our partners, and showing our users instantly how their device could support them, we believe we can help make the best use of our e-waste while spreading the love.

Formulate

TAKE FULL CONTROL OF YOUR PROMOTION CAMPAIGNS With Formulate’s retail campaign analysis and simulation tool you can see how your promotion campaigns are performing, simulate the impact of planned campaigns and grow your profit with hundreds of thousands of dollars.  Expert areas: machine learning, signal processing technology, marketing science, retail     OUR STORY AI THAT EMPOWERS RETAIL PROFESSIONALS → Consumer insight lies at the heart of the entire retail industry, if we don’t figure out what folks want, and will want, we will not be successful. And despite this true north of our industry, we get lost. Lost in sub-optimisation between retailer and suppliers, lost in internal debates on budgets, brand market shares, or account sales. None of which are of any interest to the customer. In retail, customers vote with their wallet, they come more often, buy more items, at a higher price if they like the experience. Hence, we need to structure our analysis towards understanding the true effect of our initiatives, such as promotions. Opinions in the Age of Data It’s never been easier, nor harder, to give customers what they want. There are proverbial breadcrumbs, and actual cookies everywhere to follow. There is data, lots and lots of data. Not long ago you’d hear statements like “if you don’t have data, you’re just person with opinions”, well today we’ve arrived at “if you don’t have an opinion, you’re just a person with a lot of data”. Data is everywhere, the winners will structure that data, squeeze all the juice out of it, and then take actions. Winners will have opinions and will do something differently tomorrow, compared to yesterday, aligned with those opinions. AI that drives decision It’s inhuman - literally - for retailers to have a solid opinion without some powerful technology by their side. At Formulate we develop an AI solution that is based on years of research and state of the art machine learning. Our enables retailers to predict demand, set prices and make a range of complex merchandising decisions, but also to share insights across their organisation and cooperate more effectively with their suppliers. It enables retail professionals to have a solid opinion about what is best for their business and that makes them better at their everyday job.    ABOUT FORMULATE → Founded in 2013 Based in Stockholm Advisory board with world’s leading researchers in retail marketing  One of Sweden’s top 10 AI companies according to Dagens Industri 2017 Backed by Industrifonden since 2018  A team of dedicated engineers and data scientists
