About Us: Monogram is a startup focused on art inventory management for individuals and businesses. The project originated from the realization that 98% of all art buyers/collectors do not have a digital inventory system. In addition to inventory management, the platform has two other main features: a social component where users can view other collectors' collections and a marketplace where users can sell works without a middleman. The product currently exists as an MVP being evaluated by a test panel.

Our startup is revolutionizing the way football clubs train and develop their players by introducing an innovative, interactive training platform. The core idea is to shift from traditional, passive learning methods to an engaging, active learning experience. This approach is designed to enhance players' tactical understanding and decision-making skills, both of which are crucial for on-field success. The problems we are solving: Clubs invest significant time and resources in onboarding new players and coaches to integrate them into the team's systems and culture. This process involves extensive training sessions, meetings, and practical drills to ensure everyone understands the club's philosophy and tactics. However, it is often inefficient and time-consuming, particularly when done manually. Clubs also typically lack concrete data on how well players grasp tactical concepts. The understanding of tactics is often assumed rather than measured, leading to inconsistencies in player performance. This gap in assessment leaves coaches without reliable metrics to gauge tactical comprehension, hindering targeted improvement and strategic alignment.

Spher emerged from a shared understanding of the challenges faced by underserved individuals within our society. The co-founders, driven by personal experiences, recognized the struggles encountered by those who do not conform to societal norms. One co-founder, navigating the complexities of not fitting the typical image associated with his country, joined forces with a woman who had endured constant fear and discomfort due to societal expectations. The pivotal moment that sparked the creation of Spher occurred when the male co-founder witnessed a female friend fall victim to an attack. This tragic incident served as a wake-up call, compelling him to recognize the urgent need for a united front among underserved populations to enhance collective safety. The decision was made to concentrate efforts on supporting women, who often find themselves vulnerable during commutes, nightlife activities, and even online interactions. Spher aims to address the safety concerns faced by women through the development of a specialized app. This platform facilitates a community-driven approach, enabling women to support one another in staying safe during their journeys home and while navigating the digital realm. By fostering collaboration and mutual assistance, Spher strives to empower underserved communities and create a safer environment for everyone, starting with women who deserve the right to move freely without fear.

THE PROBLEM Searching second-hand online requires navigating hundreds of platforms and incomplete listings, forcing shoppers to do the heavy lifting of finding and comparing relevant items. The decentralized and the fragmented second-hand market creates a time-consuming and frustrating experience for shoppers to locate desired items among incomplete listings and outdated platforms. THE SOLUTION Koral aggregates millions of second-hand listings into one searchable platform with categorized, indexed data to create a one-stop solution. This eliminates tedious searches across individual platforms, making shopping second-hand is easier by improving discoverability and streamlining the process of finding desired items online.

ARIS Robotics was founded by a shared vision: to steer the world towards a greener future. One of the critical challenges in the green transition is how we manage our resources and waste. Today’s processes are highly linear: raw materials are extracted, processed into products, used a few times, and then discarded—either incinerated or buried in landfills. We aim to change that. At ARIS, our ultimate goal is to create a world without waste. This means transforming linear processes into circular ones. The first step towards effective recycling is good sorting. We develop scalable and automated solutions using deep learning to recognize and sort waste efficiently. Currently, we are serving our beachhead market—public recycling centers. Here, we assist visitors in correctly sorting their waste, extending the lifespan of materials and reducing the need to extract more raw materials from our limited planet. We are always on the lookout for passionate individuals to join our mission. Keep an eye on our open positions, follow us on LinkedIn, or feel free to send us a motivated application. Let’s create a greener future together!
