Willit Oy

Willit is a digital marketplace for Nordic wild and natural foods for example wild fish, game, foraged berries and mushrooms, and artisanal farm products. The problem: Finland has a €950M market for these products, yet 90% of wild berries go unpicked and 55% of harvesters cannot find buyers. Informal channels like Facebook groups lack payments, logistics, and trust. This is not a supply problem. It is a marketplace failure. Our solution: Willit provides the missing infrastructure. We handle payments, coordinate logistics, and build trust through verified sellers and transparent product information. We unlock latent supply and connect consumers with products that would otherwise never reach the market. Why now: Growing demand for traceable, sustainable food combined with regulatory complexity creates the right conditions for a purpose-built marketplace. We navigate compliance while preserving Nordic food culture.

Nearby

Across cities, countless square meters are sitting unused – basements, garages, parking spots, and storage rooms. At the same time, people are struggling to find space: the driver without a parking option, the student with too many moving boxes, or the small business in need of affordable storage nearby. Today, the market is fragmented. On one side, people rely on Facebook groups and classifieds – messy, insecure, and inefficient. On the other side, traditional self-storage companies offer standardized units, but often at high prices and in inconvenient locations. What’s missing is a trusted, flexible platform that brings everything together – where you can easily find, rent, and share all kinds of space, from a neighbor’s garage to professional self-storage, in one seamless experience. That’s the gap we’re here to fill with Nearby.

ESEBA

ESEBA, a deep tech startup from DTU, transforms low-quality textile waste into MDF boards without binders or formaldehyde. We offer a sustainable, non-toxic alternative to traditional wood-based panels. Textile waste is a massive and growing problem in Europe – less than 1% is recycled into new products, and most ends up incinerated. At the same time, formaldehyde regulations are tightening, and deforestation pressures are increasing demand for alternatives to virgin wood. ESEBA’s mission is to enable local, circular board production through a scalable, plug-and-produce production line for furniture manufacturers.

Mundane

Mundane udvikler stilfulde, plantebaserede interiørprodukter for at hjælpe miljøbevidste hjemmeejere med at skabe smukke og bæredygtige rum, ved at anvende innovative, komposterbare materialer. Vi adresserer problemet med traditionelle hjemmeprodukter, der ofte er fremstillet af ikke-bæredygtige materialer, hvilket bidrager til miljøbelastningen. Dette påvirker i stigende grad miljøbevidste forbrugere, der ønsker at indrette deres hjem med omtanke for planeten. Problemet er udbredt, da mange almindelige interiørprodukter er lavet af plastik eller andre ressourcer, der ikke nedbrydes naturligt. Mundane løser dette ved at designe og producere interiørprodukter, primært plantekasser i øjeblikket, af PLA, et plantebaseret og komposterbart materiale. Vi fokuserer på minimalistisk, skandinavisk design, der kombinerer æstetik og funktionalitet. Vores produkter er designet til at holde længe og nedbrydes naturligt, når de ikke længere er i brug. Vi anvender bæredygtig emballage og stræber efter at minimere vores miljøaftryk i alle led af produktionen. Vores motivation stammer fra en dyb bekymring for miljøet og et ønske om at gøre en positiv forskel. Vi oplevede en mangel på stilfulde og bæredygtige interiørprodukter på markedet og ønskede at skabe et alternativ, der både er smukt og ansvarligt. Vi tror på, at design kan være en drivkraft for forandring, og vi er passionerede omkring at skabe produkter, der inspirerer andre til at leve mere bæredygtigt.

Our solution automates complex tasks, ensuring automated reimbursement and offering seamless communication between employees and employers. The problem we're solving is the time-consuming and manual management of parental leave, sick leave, and related processes. People & Culture and payroll departments are often overwhelmed with manual work, complex regulations, and fragmented systems. This affects both employees, who struggle with confusion around their entitlements, and People & Culture and payroll professionals, who spend significant time on repetitive administrative tasks. By addressing this, we aim to free up valuable time, reduce errors and costs in reimbursement, and improve employee satisfaction and belonging. bclude simplifies the leave management process by automating leave planning, automated reimbursement, and communication between employees and the organization, including management.

With bclude, employees can easily register their leave, track their entitlements, and receive timely notifications. People & Culture teams can manage all leave processes from a single platform, ensuring consistency and an inclusive process. We started bclude because we saw firsthand the frustrations employees and People & Culture and payroll teams face when it comes to managing leave. As parents ourselves, we experienced the complexity of parental leave and how it could affect work-life balance. At the same time, we noticed how much time People & Culture and payroll teams were spending on manual processes, which could be better spent on more strategic work. Our motivation was to create a solution that makes this process smoother for everyone involved, freeing up time for People & Culture and payroll teams and ensuring employees have a clear, positive, and inclusive experience during their leave.
