B’ZEOS develops novel, flexible, and home-compostable films based on seaweed extracts which can replace conventional and bio-based single-use plastic films in food-contact applications. B’ZEOS’ solution will contribute to reduce the use of non- or hardly recyclable plastic materials for single-use food packaging, thus reducing CO2 emissions. We are a team of 8 people with complementary backgrounds. One engineer in environment, two material scientists, one graphic designer, one supply chain analyst, one quality engineer advisor, one PR and marketing advisor and one CFO advisor.   Each of us are concerned by environmental issues and wanted to contribute to make a change.   We have joined this project because we are all fed up with:    - Contamination of world's drinking water with plastic fibres   - Seeing marine animals dying because of our plastic trash   - Increase of plastic packaging around fresh aliments   - Increase in plastic debris along the coast   - Both burning plastic and sending plastic to landfills   - Finding plastic while making with our kids sand castles   - Contamination with the chemicals in plastic. These chemicals are said to cause obesity, on-set puberty, and even cancer.   - Direct contamination of our kids by chewing various objects in plastic.   - Being exposed to plastic every single day and not having the chance to choose an alternative   We, at B’ZEOS and as consumers, believe in a sustainable alternative to current plastic and we have been working on the elaboration of a sustainable alternative without forcing the consumer to change dramatically his habits.

Our mission is to create a contraceptive technology that renders hormonal birth control obsolete. We are addressing the millions of women that are demanding non-hormonal products with fewer side-effects to manage their fertility. Today, nearly 60 years after the first oral contraceptive pill was sold, most prescription birth control methods are variations on the same synthetic hormones. In collaboration with the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, we have developed a technology that reinforces the natural barrier properties of cervical mucus. The principle of the technology is to use topically-applied biopolymers to make cervical mucus impenetrable to sperm cells throughout the menstrual cycle. Our approach enables a potentially groundbreaking product that protects within a minute and for extended periods without the systemic side-effects known from hormonal contraceptives. In 2019 we raised $1.8M for pre-clinical development. Today we are incubated at the BioInnovation Institute, conveniently located in central Copenhagen, with access to state-of-the-art labs.

ZynexGroup is a Danish company based at Incuba, Åbogade 15, Aarhus. We place a customer-owned battery cabinet (BESS) at factories and industrial sites that already have a grid connection (existing 400 V AC three-phase). ZynexGroup operates the battery in the ancillary services market – frequency regulation that helps keep the power grid stable – and the customer gets paid. Because the battery uses the existing connection, the project does not have to join Energinet's queue for new grid connections, unlike stand-alone battery parks. Hybrid Greentech is the balance responsible party (BRP) partner. CVR 45624013. The problem: Denmark needs far more flexible capacity to balance a grid with more and more wind and solar, but new grid connections for battery parks are stuck in long queues. ZynexGroup unlocks capacity that already exists on industrial sites, so batteries can start delivering grid services sooner and industrial companies earn from infrastructure they already have.

What we are building Joey is building the future of autonomous operations for the physical economy. We are developing the first truly vertical, agentic AI platform purpose-built to eliminate administrative revenue leakage for small-to-medium field service, construction, and artisan businesses across the Nordics. Instead of a passive software dashboard that forces users to click buttons, Joey deploys autonomous AI agents that handle the entire customer and administrative lifecycle. From reading and categorizing incoming leads, managing calendars, processing bookings, and generating invoices, to executing project-specific material procurement - Joey handles it entirely on autopilot or via a secure human-in-the-loop workflow. Our core workspace is "Joey Chat" a natural language control center allowing tradesmen to textually query their business infrastructure and trigger live operational actions on the fly. Best of all? We integrate seamlessly as a non-disruptive layer on top of the financial suites they already use daily (like e-conomic, Ordrestyring, Dinero, Billy and more). Our Story & Traction We didn't build Joey in an isolated dark room. For the last 6 months, we ran a high-growth B2B AI consulting agency in Denmark, hand-crafting custom automation workflows for local contractors. The market response was overwhelming: inbound demand far outstripped our physical capacity to build. We quickly realized that building bespoke infrastructure for 1-3 months per client wasn't scalable. Joey is the direct productization of that validated market demand. We are moving our consulting traction straight into a scalable, hyper-disruptive SaaS ecosystem. Why join us? We are a lean, relentless, and product-obsessed founding team backed by early validation. By joining Joey, you aren't building a speculative product looking for a problem - you are building software directly tied to massive, unmanaged market demand. Our Cultural DNA - There is no second place, winning is the ONLY option: We don’t just participate; we compete to dominate. We have a relentless drive for high performance, set exceptionally high bars for ourselves, and celebrate bold, measurable results. We play to win at everything we do - and most importantly, we play to kill and bury the competition. - Radical Customer Empathy: We are fiercely user-obsessed. We build out of deep empathy for the hard-working tradesmen who rely on Joey to run their businesses. We listen intently, put the end-user first in every single discussion, and measure our success by a single metric: the undeniable value and freedom we create for the customer. - Product Obsession: We believe that exceptional engineering and elegant product design solve the world's hardest operational problems. We don't build generic software patches; we build intuitive, robust, and high-impact agentic architectures. We are deeply product-focused, ensuring Joey feels like magic to use.

Minimapper is a Finnish proptech startup building an AI-powered tool for making real estate photos understandable. Our product helps property portals, brokerages, and landlords to make listings easier to understand by showing exactly where each photo was taken within the property. Minimapper adds a small floor plan minimap with a viewing marker to listing photos, giving property seekers a clear spatial understanding of the spaces from the very beginning. Even though floor plans and photos are two of the most important assets in real estate marketing, today, this crucial connection is often missing from property listings. Interior photos can look attractive, but users often struggle to understand how the rooms connect, where a photo was taken, and how the property actually feels as a layout. According to a user survey by leading Finnish property portal Etuovi.com, 80 % struggle with spacial understanding without Minimapper, and two-thirds want to see Minimapper in listings, as it helps 87 % to understand the spaces easier. Minimapper is available in all HOAS properties in the Helsinki region, where they manage over 10 000 apartments. In 2025 alone, Minimapper helped over 650,000 students to find their next home more easily. We are now developing Minimapper into an automated AI API that can process property listings at scale. The goal is to enable major real estate portals and listing platforms to automatically add minimaps to property photos whenever a floor plan is available. We are looking for a backend-focused full-stack developer to help build the backend systems, cloud infrastructure and integrations around our AI pipeline. Experience with APIs, scalable backend architecture, Google Cloud, Dart & Flutter, visual AI, image processing or real estate technology is especially relevant. This opportunity is best suited for someone who is motivated by startup ownership and long-term upside. Initially, the compensation is expected to be primarily option-based, with the aim of building a well-funded, scalable company together. Minimapper is at an exciting stage: the core AI product exists, market discussions are active, and the path is clearing toward scalable portal integrations. We are eager to talk to you and find out what we could achieve together.
