S core Nordic is developing the next generation of hardware and software (the infrastructure layer) to help city planners and parking operators bridge the urban data gap and optimize spaces, using 100% GDPR-compliant radar technology and open APIs. The Problem Cities are building advanced digital services, but the physical infrastructure on our streets remains blind. Every day, billion-dollar decisions regarding urban planning and mobility are made based on outdated assumptions and manual measurements. This leads to inefficiently used spaces, unnecessary search traffic, and increased CO2 emissions. Our Solution: The Digital Asphalt Our battery-powered mmWave sensors and Edge Computing continuously gather structured data on occupancy and flows in real-time. By using radar technology instead of cameras, the system is completely anonymous. Data is transmitted via our cloud architecture (PFind) and seamlessly integrated into the existing systems of municipalities and operators. Our Why We were founded on a simple but frustrating insight: A modern city cannot be managed by gut feeling, and citizen privacy must never be compromised to gather data. Our driving force is to give cities the right tools to govern themselves and reach their climate goals, entirely without mass surveillance. Now, we are building the team to make this a reality.

Tid is a watch startup challenging the assumption that products should be designed for a single, default body and identity. Most watches are built around narrow aesthetic and ergonomic norms, leaving many people adapting themselves to the object rather than the other way around. We design unconventional, modular timepieces that prioritize fit, expression, and personal meaning over tradition. The problem we solve is not accuracy of timekeeping, but relevance: creating objects that reflect diverse bodies, lives, and ways of being in the world.

TUYO is a Denmark-based specialty coffee and fine cacao project rooted in long-term relationships with coffee- and cacao-growing communities in Ecuador, and inspired by Nordic values around creativity, innovation, and sustainability. We are building a regenerative business that prioritizes transparency, fair collaboration, and high-quality products, while questioning extractive models within global value chains. Our approach is relational and place-based, centered on people, landscapes, and craft rather than scale. TUYO is currently in an early build phase, finalizing its first pilot specialty coffee line and preparing for an initial public launch moment in late February. Coffee is the immediate focus; fine cacao is part of the broader product vision and will be developed in parallel at a later stage. We work as a small, hands-on team with close collaborators across sourcing, quality, and production, and we value clarity, reliability, and care in how we build both products and partnerships.

Henriksson Storage is a fast-growing self-storage company on a mission to modernize an industry that has long been expensive, inconvenient, and outdated. We solve a simple but widespread problem: people and businesses need flexible, secure storage – without long contracts, hidden fees, or complicated access. Traditional self-storage often comes with high prices, poor transparency, and friction-heavy processes. Henriksson Storage offers affordable, drive-up outdoor storage units with flexible terms, simple online booking, and clear pricing. Customers can drive directly to their unit, access it whenever they need, and scale up or down without hassle. Our model works just as well for households needing extra space as for tradespeople and small businesses storing tools, materials, or stock. Founded in Sweden, we are expanding rapidly across Sweden and the UK, with the ambition to build Europe’s leading outdoor self-storage network. We combine a lean, tech-enabled operating model with a strong focus on customer experience, local presence, and operational excellence. We are building a company where speed, ownership, and pragmatism matter – and where smart, driven people can have a real impact from day one.

ABOUT Insurance is one of the biggest recurring household costs - yet the market is built on complexity: dense policies, hard comparisons, and increasingly individualised pricing with little transparency. The result is predictable: people overpay for years, miss critical coverage, or both - and often only find out when it's too late. We're building the consumer layer for private insurance, making it behave like a modern product. Upload your policies and, in under a minute, our AI turns fine print into clear answers: where you're over- or underinsured, where the gaps are, and where you're likely paying too much. We benchmark each policy against an anonymised pool of real policies to recommend better-matched alternatives - shifting knowledge and pricing power back to households. We're early-stage, moving fast, and already proving the need: 50+ customer interviews, 10 households switched, ~28% average savings while improving coverage - plus validation from senior industry professionals, a top-performing insurance salesperson on the team, and initial pre-seed backing from a Bain & Company partner.

FIT for LIVET is a health and lifestyle company working at the intersection of training, behavior change, and medically supported weight loss. We address a growing problem: many people struggle with their health and weight despite knowing what to do. For some, lifestyle changes alone are not enough. That’s why we combine structured training, motivation, and community with modern, medically approved treatments – always as part of a holistic and responsible approach. Our mission is to make health sustainable, realistic, and long-term. We believe medication can be a powerful support when used correctly, but real change happens when it is combined with movement, structure, and daily habits.

Arcana is building new AI-powered technologies that enable long-term human health monitoring through label-free protein detection and proprietary photonics technology, designed to support health monitoring at home. By combining photonics and artificial intelligence, Arcana reads biological signals directly—without labels or reagents—making it possible to generate continuous insight into health over time.

We are developing a system intended to replace fixed interfaces with software that adapts in real time. Current products still depend on predefined UI paths that fail when underlying models behave in new ways. This gap limits how far teams can push advanced automation. The platform is being designed as a runtime that can generate interface elements dynamically. It aims to let products reorganize themselves around model output and user context without manual UI wiring. The goal is to enable applications that won’t rely on static interaction surfaces once the system is fully realized.

At our core, we deliver Autonomous Insights through two flagship products: earli AI and Syncast. Our mission is simple - remove the friction, guesswork, and manual effort that have historically held organizations back from preventing risks and performance loss in real time. earli AI is the world’s first autonomous people-risk intelligence platform for Group Life, Disability, and Health carriers. We enable carriers to access, detect, and act on emerging risks long before they materialize - without surveys, manual inputs, or integrations. By combining AI-driven profiling with continuous real-time signals, earli AI provides the industry’s first truly proactive, accurate measure of preventable risk. The result is earlier intervention, better outcomes, and a fundamentally more resilient book of business. Syncast is the first fully automated, AI-native sales insight engine. It listens, learns, and dynamically captures every pipeline shift, deal movement, and team interaction - all without a single CRM entry. Sales reps save countless hours, leaders gain unprecedented visibility, and teams operate on clean, complete, real-time data that was never possible before. With Syncast, the focus moves from administrative work to winning work. Together, earli AI and Syncast redefine how organizations understand people, performance, and risk - autonomously, intelligently, and effortlessly.

AITSU is a startup that commercialises ultrasound guided intralymphatic Immunotherapy as a disruptive treatment for grass pollen allergy. To improve the quality of the injections, we want to build software that can identify lymph nodes and the needle in real time and guide the needle to the optimal site for the intralymphatic injection of medicine.

Only 7.9% of new medicin is approved for phase 1 clinical programs - life saving cures are being scrapped because of poor reproducibility. Today, researchers designing complex in vitro and in vivo experiments jump between many tools that do not talk to each other. Protocols are written in free text, naming is inconsistent, raw data is scattered across drives, and inventory and cell banks are tracked separately. This makes it hard to reproduce experiments, compare results across projects, trace which cell material went into which batch, and satisfy regulatory expectations. Small and mid-sized labs often cannot afford enterprise platforms like Benchling or Dotmatics, so they manually glue everything together and rarely get to use advanced analytics or AI. BioPilot solves this by standardising the full early-to-in-vivo CTR pipeline in one product. Users can register and template in vitro experiments (differentiation, expansion, cryopreservation, device testing, etc.) and in vivo studies (animals, groups, dosing, housing, ethics documents) using fixed ontologies. This gives every experiment a structured schema and a precise schedule of readouts, barcodes and data types to collect. Raw data (FACS, scRNA-seq, imaging, counters, bioreactor logs, etc.) is then automatically linked back to the right experiment, condition and sample. On top of this, BioPilot offers: • Inventory and cell bank tracking that makes it trivial to trace which vial, edit or expansion batch was used where. • Live bioreactor monitoring with alarms (email / phone) to prevent losing expensive batches. • A growing library of free analytical tools, including automated FACS gating, scRNA-seq pipelines and image analysis that can feed results straight back into the experiment records. • A global ontology service for vendors, instruments, cell lines, species and process terms, with a roadmap for a public API. Because everything is structured and queryable, BioPilot makes it much easier to compare experiments, run Bayesian optimisation on process parameters, and let AI suggest next-step experiments. The pricing is kept aggressively low (free tier plus a simple paid tier based on storage), so smaller biotech and academic groups can access capabilities that are normally reserved for organisations with large software budgets. In short, BioPilot aims to become the operating system for cell therapy R&D: a single, affordable platform where experiments are planned, executed, monitored and analysed in a way that is standardised enough for automation and flexible enough for real-world biology.

The Problem Most workplaces struggle with high sick leave — and the root causes are rarely acute injuries or illness. They are lifestyle-driven issues: • fatigue and low energy • stress and mental strain • poor sleep • musculoskeletal pain • unhealthy habits • lack of support These problems build up over time, and employees try to handle them alone. But people don’t change their health on their own — and employers don’t have the tools or competency to help them. The result? High sick leave costs, reduced productivity, and employees who are stuck in patterns they can’t break. Why it matters Sick leave is one of the biggest hidden costs in business. A single employee on sick leave costs on average 65 200 kr per year — and 20% of employees account for 80% of the total. Most of these cases are preventable with the right support. At the same time, people want help: 85% prefer guidance from a qualified professional rather than trying to solve health challenges alone. ABEL’s Role ABEL solves this gap. We connect employees with qualified health coaches who follow them closely over time — mentally, physically, and socially. Through structured guidance and our digital platform, we help people make sustainable lifestyle changes that reduce sick leave and increase wellbeing. The impact: Employees get better health. Companies save money. Society reduces the burden of preventable illness.

Horaizon is an AI consulting and product company helping organisations turn the hype around artificial intelligence into measurable business outcomes. The problem we see every day is twofold: • Uncertainty — businesses know AI will change how they operate but don’t know where to start. • Inefficiency — companies waste time and money experimenting with generic tools that don’t address their specific needs. At Horaizon, we bridge that gap by working alongside organisations as if they were our own. We design and implement AI systems that are cost-effective, secure, and directly aligned with their workflows, from reducing customer support costs by 10x to automating time-consuming financial processes. Whether a client comes to us with excitement or hesitation about AI, our role is the same: to provide clarity, trust, and results, helping them adapt and scale in a future where AI is not optional but essential.

The EU AI Act creates new obligations and requirements across the AI value chain. The problem for companies impacted by his new regulatory change is understanding the impact on their processes. From third party integrations into AI systems to AI model monitoring and compliance checks, InfAI’s platform clarifies what companies have to do about the EU AI Act then gives them the tool do it.
