Componental began with a simple but stubborn curiosity: what happens when musicians are given tools that invite exploration instead of prescribing outcomes? Founded by musicians and technologists, Componental was born out of years spent taking instruments apart, questioning workflows, and searching for better ways to stay connected to the joy of making music. At the heart of Componental is a belief that technology should feel playable, expressive, and a little bit magical. Our work is deeply rooted in electronic music culture, from studios and live stages to DIY scenes and experimental communities, but always with an eye toward the future. Dubby, our first product, grew from this mindset: a versatile music multi-tool designed to remove friction, spark ideas, and encourage happy accidents rather than constrain creativity. We build slowly, thoughtfully, and with intention. Every decision, from hardware design to DSP, from software workflows to community features, is guided by real musicians, real use cases, and real curiosity. Componental isn't about chasing trends or shipping features for the sake of it. It's about creating instruments people can grow with, trust, and return to again and again. As we move forward, our mission stays the same: to design musical tools that feel alive, honest, and deeply inspiring, tools that invite you to explore sound on your own terms. Dubby, our music multi-tool, is a hands-on electronic music instrument that lets you build sounds, perform live, and explore ideas in real time. It bridges the gap between studio experimentation and stage performance, without locking you into presets, genres, or workflows.

Built by Builders for Builders - to tackle the productivity challenge in construction The Problem Construction productivity has been stuck for four decades. We believe this is because the process is broken. In other words, AI, robotics, or hammering faster won’t increase productivity until the underlying process is fixed. The Solution Our software helps construction companies move from theory to practice by teaching the essentials of production management and helping the sites move to industrialised construction. Unlike traditional project management, Sitedrive uses location-based schedules to control and optimize tasks, resources, logistics, finances, and site conditions. This creates a single source of truth for all stakeholders, ensuring everyone stays on the same page and improvements are made continuously.

Tapp is developing a software-only POS suite—tap-on-phone payments, eshop self-order, Native AI data platforms, and AI-assisted menu/setup - to help small UK service businesses ditch expensive hardware POS, solve slow service and rising operating costs, and stay compliant by default, powered by our ultra-fast UX, AI onboarding, leading AI features, and embedded payments. Independent cafés, massage parlors, and any other service spots are squeezed by hardware terminals, clunky back-office flows, and staffing shortages—which translates to slower turnover, longer queues, and lost revenue. Operators also face VAT/receipt/tips complexity and card-data obligations that traditional POS doesn’t simplify. The market is crowded, but legacy and “one-size-fits-all” tools still mean slow UI, multi-minute setup, and rigid pricing. Our analysis of UK-relevant providers shows many still require dedicated hardware or fragmented QR solutions—creating cost, training, and integration friction for small teams. Whilst providing insights on all the data collected, without the user having to ask. Tapp replaces boxes and paper with a phone-first POS: - Tap-to-Pay on iPhone & Android: take contactless cards/Wallets directly on staff or owner smartphones—no reader required. Fully productised in our “Staff” flow. - QR self-order, eshop & pay: guests scan, order, tip, and receive receipts digitally; staff stay focused on giving the best service, not card machines. - AI onboarding & menu import: snap a menu or upload a file; Tapp auto-parses categories/items, generates a store description, and lets owners tweak with guardrails (VAT, pricing, tags, duration). - Built-in compliance for UK SMBs: support for e-receipts, VAT invoice scenarios, and transparent tip/service handling—plus card-data best-practice via our payments stack. - Embedded payments on Adyen: unified acquiring, wallet rails, refunds/chargebacks, payouts, and potential embedded finance/share—with clear IC++ economics and SoftPOS fees. - Elite performance: our internal tests show UX runs 2.7× faster LCP and 3.3× less blocking than a leading competitor—keeping staff in “flow” during rush. Why this wins: zero hardware CAPEX, minutes-not-weeks deployment, faster service cycles, and fewer receipt/VAT/tips headaches—all in a single app the team already knows how to use (their phone). Feature depth is production-ready across signup/KYC, menu, staff, orders, payout views, and refunds per our shipped user stories. Whilst (soon) providing industry-breaking intelligence to make the small merchants play in the big leagues. We started Tapp after watching small venues spend too much on terminals and too long wrestling slow software—only to still miss orders at peak. We dug into the UK compliance tangle (VAT, receipts, tips) and saw a chance to bake the rules into the workflow, not bolt them on. Then we validated the experience with hard performance data and a best-in-class payments partner so owners can serve more customers with less kit and less stress. That’s why we’re doing this: give time back to small operators with a POS that is fast, compliant, and delightfully simple.

PharosBio is building an autonomous AI scientist—a platform and APIs that help biopharma and research teams reduce R&D risk by turning fragmented evidence into decisions across discovery and translation. The problem Despite billions spent on R&D, the research ecosystem runs on incomplete, siloed insight. Around 90% of drug candidates still fail in the clinic, wasting time and capital and delaying therapies for patients. This affects 4.5 million scientists across pharma, biotech, and academia who must constantly decide what to study, why it matters, and whether to proceed—with evidence that’s scattered and stale. Our solution We’re building the first agentic AI built for life sciences: a system that plans, reads, reasons, and writes like a tireless collaborator, and plugs into existing workflows via APIs. What it does • Target discovery & repurposing: surfaces novel targets and repositioning opportunities from literature and data; ranks by mechanism and evidence strength. • Translational go/no-go: aggregates preclinical and clinical signals to support milestone decisions with transparent rationales. • Scientific writing copilot: drafts systematic reviews, grant sections, IND-supporting summaries, and patent landscape briefs with citations. How it fits • Platform + APIs integrate with existing tools and pipelines. • Evidence-first UX: every recommendation is linked to sources; uncertainty is quantified. • Autonomy with control: agents run end-to-end tasks, while scientists supervise, edit, and approve. Outcomes • Faster time to insight, • Fewer dead-ends, • Higher confidence at each stage from early discovery to translation. Our motivation We’re expats who fell in love with Denmark’s research culture and collaborative ecosystem. We started PharosBio because agentic AI is powerful but under-applied where it matters most—healthcare, research, and biotech. Watching promising ideas stall for lack of clear evidence lit the spark: we want to equip every scientist with an always-on partner, so more therapies reach patients - us and our loved ones!

Swed Fintech AB is developing tech-driven investor outreach and capital allocation programs to help emerging finance talent bridge the gap between academic theory and professional practice through advanced, systematic learning. There is a critical gap between traditional finance education and the demands of a modern, technology-driven investment ecosystem. Many talented individuals struggle to translate academic knowledge into real-world investor relations, capital allocation, and relationship management skills. This problem affects graduates, career changers, and even early-stage professionals — limiting their ability to build successful careers and slowing innovation in the financial sector. Swed Fintech AB is tackling this problem by integrating advanced tech, systematic research, and global best practices into a unique internship program. Interns work side-by-side with senior professionals to gain firsthand exposure to capital raising, investor outreach, and allocator psychology, while also interacting with modern CRM systems, outreach automations, and AI-based research tools. We blend human skills with technology to deliver a transformative learning experience rooted in Nordic excellence and strategic thinking. At Swed Fintech AB, we believe humanity will thrive in a future where fintech, automation, and AI transform 99% of repetitive tasks — freeing people to focus on higher-value problem solving and innovation. Seeing how many young finance professionals struggle to access practical, meaningful opportunities, we were inspired to bridge this gap by combining world-class training with technology-driven solutions. We are motivated by a mission to transform humanity through excellence in frontier research and technology, helping shape a better financial, healthcare, and learning landscape for everyone.

At the same time, we offer political advocacy groups the opportunity to test their policy drafts with the public and keep up with important updates on the policies close to their cause. In short, we're building a platform to bring people and policy closer together.

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.

Edumo allows teachers to provide a Duolingo-like experience with: Bite-sized content, which allows learners to more easily find time; Gamification and nudging which helps learners to keep practicing; And intelligent repetition and insights, which helps learners understand things they struggle with. Unlike Duolingo, content can also be instructional material in form of text, audio and video. And the teacher can gain detailed insights and intelligent summaries of learners' progressions and struggles. Edumo helps teachers to tailor content to their classes or individual learners through automation, generative AI and sharing. A teacher can easily get existing material into the system by photo, scans or upload of documents, which the service may recognize and turn into interactive materials. The service also has various features to generate materials intelligently from various teacher inputs. We say it's a "learning management system" with focus on learning and less on "management" and "system". We want to help teachers by removing time consuming tasks and give opportunities for creating great learning experiences and focus on the education. We want to help learners find time and motivation to practice and support them to achieve desired results.
