[Pitch] How would the global economy change if consumers' normal household goods -- $10T+ value globally and growing -- were elevated to an investable, tradeable asset class? We're here to find out. Venato -- "to track" in Latin -- is taking a long view on how online resale markets will evolve on a 10 year timescale, informed by co-founder experience as a trader on Wall Street. We're building B2C tech tools that address pressing needs today, while simultaneously bringing our users along on an accelerated path to the future, where we'll be a critical enabler and key beneficiary. We're an ANTLER Ventures start-up, eligible for pre-seed funding in a few short weeks, after which we'll be sprinting to our seed round. We're seeking thought partnership and execution from top-notch interns, and in exchange we'll deliver a hands-on, high impact experience that you can be proud of. [What] Here's what our international co-founding team is focused on today: resale marketplaces are growing 20x faster than the broader retail market. Thanks to these online resale hubs (think Facebook Marketplace, Vinted, Tradera, etc), consumers are starting to think of their household goods as assets -- items that hold value, and can be traded for money. If that mindset were widespread, we foresee a tectonic shift that impacts consumer behavior and the entire consumer goods supply chain, around the globe. But there are a few problems: there's basically no efficient market for stuff today. Consumers don't know what's valuable, how valuable it is, where to get the best price for it, and how to manage sales across the fragmented marketplace ecosystem. These problems are experienced most intensely by the people with good-quality stuff to sell, and the willingness to do it: Millennials and Gen Z top our list, with a bias toward higher income brackets = more valuable stuff. With >1 billion people using Facebook Marketplace alone each month (250 million are selling), there's no shortage of potential users across Europe and the EU. [How] We're building an investment platform for your stuff, and a friction-free path to market. Upload your items, see live price feeds to track value through time, and gather insights through analytics and community. When you're ready to sell, use our AI-driven optimized product listings and marketplace recommendations to get the most for your stuff. Our initial target market is Millennials who aren't as close to their financial goals as they'd like to be: Venato validates this group and gives them a win (a higher net worth) today. We're planning to launch in Denmark, then will expand to the Nordics and eventually to the US. [Why] As frequent but non-professional resellers, we have experience with the friction-filled process of exchanging your stuff for money today. Additionally, as students of marketplace structure, business history, the unfolding evolution of technology, and entrepreneurship, we're seeing the patterns emerging in the market for stuff that suggest a very different -- and very exciting -- future.

We passed our BETA test with flying colors and are now gearing up for go-to-market and need to start recruiting more people to help us make it easier for the many people to join us on our mission.

Spacelab is envisioning a future where optimization of space and weight, reduces both emissions and cost for a global logistics market. With the current state of the global shipping and logistics industry where prices have increased more than 10X over the past 18 months, and the huge disruptions to supply chain caused by container shortages and lack of transportation assets. We will optimize and aid the situation through digital solutions offering more control and better utilization. Spacelab started because we saw a opportunity to create something new, to aid in breaking down industry silos, and building a platform we truly love to create, with the technology we believe in.

Ecombooster is developing a back-end system for e-commerce companies to remove manual and tedious tasks in order too boost profitability. Typically, e-commerce spends a lot of time gathering product information, images, descriptions etc, put them in excel and then imports them into their e-commerce platform. We automate this work, as well as enable up-to-date stock levels, pricing, purchasing and many more things. Today, there is no good way to automate this kind of work. Ecombooster is onto the solution and save e-commerce personnel loads of time that can be spent on increasing sales and profitability. We do this by webscraping the suppliers websites and then Ecombooster does its magic to make sure the data gets from the suppliers into the e-commerce platforms and set up a sync schedule so the information is uptodate at all times. The company was founded by Tobias Gårdner who had these problems in his own webshop and he thought there must be an easier way to solve this. And then he thought, I can't be the only one with this problem. Said and done, that was the birth of Ecombooster.

Hireproof is a recruitment SaaS that helps companies make better hiring decisions, decrease bias in interview situations, and give candidates a human-centric interview experience. Based on organizational psychology best practices, Hireproof makes anyone a world-class interviewer just by clicking a link. The one constant in every company's recruitment is the employment interview. Unfortunately, the commonly used unstructured interview style is notoriously prone to bias and a poor predictor of job performance. The current trend in the recruitment industry is adding more tools, skill assessments, personality tests, and prerecorded interviews, all of which only increase recruitment complexity and dehumanize candidate experience while providing little increase to hiring validity. Hireproof takes the opposite approach. We aim to simplify recruitment and make interviews so reliable that companies won't need anything else to reach the best possible hiring decision.

Orbit's objective is to drive the transition to recycled plastic. We are a one stop shop for recycled plastic and plastic recycling. That means that our customers either have a plastic waste or a demand for a recycled plastic material. There are several challenges associated with plastic recycling and that is the reason why there is gap between supply and demand. There is a huge demand for recycled plastic, but only 10% plastic is recycled in Europe. That is the equation Orbit is solving.
