We are building a patented security and authentication solution designed to protect products against fraud, counterfeiting, and misuse — across industries, not only textiles. Many industries struggle with the same core problems: • Fraudulent returns • Counterfeit products • Lack of reliable product authentication • High manual control and verification costs Existing solutions are often expensive, complex, or limited to specific product types. Our solution is a patent-protected security seal that can be applied to any physical product with a surface, not just garments. It enables fast and reliable authentication, prevents product tampering, and creates traceability throughout the product’s lifecycle. The technology is simple, scalable, and does not require changes to existing logistics or IT systems. It can be used in fashion, electronics, luxury goods, consumer products, and other industries where product authenticity and return control matter. We hold a granted European patent covering 22 EU countries, (include UK) and the business is designed to scale globally through a licensing model. This allows partners to operate locally while we retain full ownership of the intellectual property. Our mission is to make product authentication and fraud prevention simple, scalable, and commercially viable, helping brands protect both revenue and trust.

At Soolv, we help the world’s most attractive employers identify and develop future stars. Each year, these companies receive thousands of applications - filled with CVs, cover letters, transcripts, assessments, and interview notes. Over time, they generate even more data from performance reviews, staffing decisions, and project evaluations. This represents vast amounts of data that could be used to analyze and predict exceptional talent - yet they still rely on manual processes and intuition for their most important people decisions. Soolv is the AI platform that turns these hidden signals into actionable intelligence - finally bringing data-driven precision to every high-stakes decision about people. We’re backed by top-tier Nordic early-stage investors, and our customers are top firms in investment banking, law, consulting, and tech. Founded by alumni from McKinsey, Spacemaker, and reMarkable, with backgrounds from Cambridge, KTH, and NTNU, we combine deep AI expertise with first-hand experience from high-performance environments.

Edgy Systems AB – Making Energy Systems Work Together Overview Edgy Systems AB is building a hardware-agnostic monitoring and management platform for distributed energy assets such as solar panels, batteries, heat pumps, and HVAC systems. The platform provides a unified interface that allows installers, service companies, and multi-tenant building owners to monitor, analyze, and optimize the performance of their installations, regardless of manufacturer or protocol. By integrating all assets into a single ecosystem, Edgy Systems helps installers save valuable technician hours each week, prevents asset downtime, and builds trust with customers through transparency and actionable insights. The Problem The transition to electrified and distributed energy systems is accelerating, but the digital management layer has not kept pace. Today, both installers and property owners face major inefficiencies: For Installers: - They must use multiple OEM portals to monitor the assets they install, one for heat pumps, another for solar panels, batteries, EV chargers, and so on. Switching between these platforms wastes several technician hours every week and complicates workflow management. - Lack of central alerts: Installers often fail to notice when a system is underperforming or has an active alarm because there is no unified feedback mechanism. - Scaling limitations: The installation business is inherently resource-intensive. Growth depends on the speed and efficiency of teams, which are limited by manual coordination and fragmented digital tools. - Customer dissatisfaction: Since installers cannot easily share transparent performance data, their customers (typically tenant-owners’ associations or small industries ) may lose trust or perceive the investment as opaque. For Tenant-owners’ Associations and Industrial Users: - They often lack visibility into performance metrics of their solar, HVAC, or storage systems. Reports, when available, arrive monthly or yearly. - There is rarely a clear cost-benefit analysis that shows whether their energy investment delivers expected savings. - They want to optimize energy use and manage assets efficiently but struggle to find service providers capable of analyzing heterogeneous setups. - Tenants or residents don’t see real-time results, which reduces engagement and the perceived value of sustainability initiatives. The Solution - Edgy Systems offers an open, AI-assisted platform that connects all energy assets into a single dashboard. - Unified monitoring: A single pane of glass for all assets, independent of vendor or protocol. - Automated alarms and reports: Intelligent notifications ensure no downtime goes unnoticed. - AI-powered integration: Machine learning helps create and validate data connectors faster, reducing the engineering effort required to add new device types. - Transparency for customers: Real-time dashboards and cost-performance analytics increase trust and demonstrate tangible results. - Scalability for installers: By centralizing monitoring and automating reporting, installers can manage more installations with fewer resources. Why It Matters The energy industry is becoming decentralized, but the tools used to manage installations remain siloed and inefficient. Installers lose time and revenue potential, while customers cannot verify the value of their investment. Edgy Systems bridges this gap by providing the digital backbone for the modern energy ecosystem. It enables: - Faster, data-driven maintenance and installation scaling. - Lower operational costs through automation. - Smarter decisions for property owners based on transparent performance data. - A foundation for AI-driven energy optimization and predictive maintenance.

ESEBA’s mission is to enable local, circular board production through a scalable, plug-and-produce production line for furniture manufacturers.

Andsend is developing an AI-powered relationship management platform to help consultants, small business owners, and sales professionals build authentic business connections that convert to results, with intelligent conversation guidance. WHAT PROBLEM ARE WE SOLVING? We're addressing the gap between traditional CRMs and communication tools. Professionals who depend on relationship-building know strong connections are crucial, yet follow-ups slip through cracks, outreach becomes reactive, and they struggle to prioritize effectively. This affects three key groups: * Independent consultants and small agency owners whose client work leaves little time for nurturing their business pipeline * Relationship-focused sales professionals whose CRMs track deals but don't guide strategic communication * Senior consultants with business development responsibilities who need to balance client value with relationship cultivation Current alternatives (sales automation, email tools, contact managers, and complex CRMs) fail to provide intelligent assistance for purposeful relationship-building. HOW ARE WE SOLVING IT? Andsend offers a relationship intelligence platform built on a powerful premise: a tool that understands your goals and guides interactions toward achieving them. Our solution provides: * AI-Powered Contact Prioritization: Identifying who needs attention now based on goals and opportunities * Strategy-Driven "Playbooks": Strategic plans that guide conversations toward specific relationship objectives * Authentic Message Assistance: Communication help that sounds like you, tailored to relationship context * Smart Follow-Up System: Ensuring critical follow-ups maintain momentum with optimal timing Technically, we integrate with LinkedIn and email via Chrome extension and APIs, creating a unified conversation view that eliminates platform-switching. WHAT MOTIVATED US? Our founders experienced this problem as consultants, agency owners, and sales leaders. We saw how fragmented tools cost professionals up to 40% of their relationship management capacity through platform-switching alone. We believe business is built on relationships - not just transactions. Andsend transforms how professionals manage their most valuable asset with AI that enhances human connection rather than replacing it.
