KiteX

At KiteX, we're revolutionising energy with innovative wind turbines inspired by kites. Our mission? To make wind turbines that use significantly less material, offering a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to traditional turbines. Our journey began by envisioning wind turbines that combine the efficiency of kites and autonomy of drones. On this path we found an hybrid design with guy wire supported tower and blades could achieve almost the same material savings, but without any of the disadvantages. Our unique approach centres on patience, refining technology step by step, and focusing on sustainable solutions. We're scaling up production of the groundbreaking Wind Catcher, a portable off-grid turbine, while designing a larger, grid-connected successor. As we grow, we're seeking exceptional team members in marketing, customer support, technical, and electrical engineering. KiteX isn't just a workplace; it's an opportunity to drive clean energy and make history. Join us in shaping a sustainable future. Contact us through the hub or at info@kitex.tech to be part of something extraordinary.

Vidd Medical AS

Vidd Medical is an on-premise AI platform that automates clinical documentation to give healthcare professionals back time and focus. Our solution transcribes consultations in real time, structures notes (journalføring, epikriser og ukeoppsummeringer) and integrates directly with existing EHR workflows — all processed locally inside the customer’s IT perimeter so no sensitive patient data is shared with cloud or third parties. We solve two urgent problems: the heavy administrative burden that steals clinicians’ time and the privacy/regulatory risks of sending health data off-site. By delivering ambient transcription, smart dictation and text-to-text features inside the hospital or clinic firewall, Vidd reduces after-hours documentation, lowers double-entry and helps institutions meet GDPR and medical device (MDR/CE) requirements. Built in collaboration with healthcare professionals, Vidd is designed to slot seamlessly into established routines and EHR systems, offering a scalable, local alternative to cloud-based AI that preserves control over patient data while improving documentation quality and clinical workflow.

GradeAid

The Problem: What problem are you attempting to solve, and how big is it? Children suffering from school refusal systematically fall out of the education system because traditional teaching methods fail to meet their individual learning needs. Today, 110,000 children have experienced school refusal—equivalent to one in five students. This target group becomes isolated at home during their school years, which later leads to difficulties in securing and maintaining employment, costing society 2.2 billion annually. Research shows that the most critical factor for these students is restoring their self-confidence regarding learning; they need to experience learning as a positive activity and process the traumas that led to their school refusal (The Back2School Modular Cognitive Behavioral Intervention, 2024). Therefore, before attempting to reintegrate students into the physical school environment, it is crucial to rebuild their confidence and bring them up to the academic level of their peers to reduce feelings of stigmatization. The Solution: What is your idea? Describe your product or service. GradeAid is an AI agent that creates personalized learning experiences. Students simply scan their homework or verbalize what they wish to learn. Our AI then generates tailored content derived from pedagogically validated materials, specifically designed for children who lack academic confidence or have fallen behind. The system continuously learns from the student's interactions and automatically adapts the curriculum. This helps restore the self-confidence and joy of learning that many of these students lack, while ensuring the process is both personalized and fun. The platform features a 24/7 AI tutor providing instant feedback. Through gamification, students earn coins for their virtual pets. This approach was selected because research has long established that gamification effectively builds confidence and helps children re-engage with learning (Impact of gamification on school engagement: a systematic review, 2024). Instead of forcing the child to fit the system, our technology adapts to the child's way of learning. Our intention is to build confidence so that children find it easier to return to school, equipped with the mental energy to focus on social reintegration. The platform supports both English and Danish. We are currently testing the Danish version.

Dalea

Dalea delivers a data platform for research within BioPharma and Life Sciences, providing familiar tools and a frictionless migration for researchers. Researchers forecast industry data volumes will double within 1 year, yet 60% of data is currently still stored on personal computers or in physical notebooks. Despite this issue, there is a clear market gap; two thirds of researchers within the field are dissatisfied with existing options on the market today. This is a major challenge for data replication and scientific collaboration. It stifles the value of created data and greatly inhibits discovery. Larger BioPharma companies resort to re-running experiments, as a faster alternative to looking up results. The market size for Electronic Notebooks and Laboratory Information Management Systems is expected to double in the next 10 years, with industry leaders breaking a staggering $6 billion valuation. Dalea is entirely EU-based, ensuring current and future compliance and data security. Our Academic version launches this Autumn, with an initial customer base secured through partnerships with leading academic labs. Ready to revolutionize research data? Explore our open roles and join us on the front lines of scientific innovation.

Orea.ai

Orea.ai addresses the challenge of scaling personal conversations in the digital realm. In an era where the demand for one-to-one interactions with influencers, experts, creators, and coaches is soaring, the limitation of these personalities' time and availability becomes a significant bottleneck. Fans and followers seek more intimate, personalized engagements beyond social media comments and public posts, but the reality is that individualized attention from high-profile individuals is not scalable - until now. We've developed a groundbreaking solution that leverages artificial intelligence to create AI clones of these sought-after personalities. This technology enables fans to have interactive, conversational experiences with virtual counterparts of their favourite figures. Our AI clones are designed to mimic the real personalities' mannerisms, speech patterns, and knowledge base, offering a realistic and engaging interaction that feels personal and genuine. The problem we solve is twofold: For influencers and public figures, our solution offers a scalable way to connect with their audience, enhancing their engagement without the unsustainable demand on their time. For fans, it provides an accessible, anytime opportunity to interact with their idols in a way that was previously impossible. This approach not only democratizes access to personalized interactions with influential figures but also opens up new avenues for content creation, coaching, and advice that are tailored to individual needs and questions. Orea.ai is at the forefront of redefining fan engagement, making personal conversations scalable and more accessible than ever before.

Versiro

Versiro develops software that accelerates the energy transition. Renewable electricity is great for the environment but difficult to plan because its production depends on uncertain weather conditions. Versiro develops an AI copilot that helps renewable producers make smart decisions in real time while considering these uncertainties. This assists the integration of renewable energy and increases its profitability, two key factors to enable the green energy transition. Versiro was founded by researchers at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and follows the observation that, in electric power systems, the traditional pipelines from research to industry are too outdated to keep up with the fast-paced world of machine learning.
