Edventures

Edventures is an impact-focused edtech and future-of-work startup offering a personalised entrepreneurship coaching and learning app to empower more people through entrepreneurship. We’re exploring how AI can make entrepreneurship as accessible as texting. With 75 million young people globally disengaged from work and education, the economic and social cost is staggering—€153 billion annually in Europe alone. Traditional entrepreneurship support excludes over 90% of potential founders, leaving millions without guidance. Edventures is bridging this gap with AI-powered, scalable coaching. Our web app features Anna, a conversational AI coach; Eddie, a gamified learning module “Duolingo for entrepreneurship”; and Franklin, a coaching dashboard for data-driven mentorship. By leveraging LLMs, a proprietary AI-system, and data-driven insights, we provide personalised, ongoing support that adapts to entrepreneurs’ needs. Our vision is to empower millions of overlooked entrepreneurs, reducing NEET rates and fostering economic inclusion. With a B2B2C model, we work with entrepreneurship support organisations to scale globally and we’re already running paid pilots.

SIS: Sisters In Startup

Sisters In Startup (SIS) is a platform built to close the gender gap in entrepreneurship. Our mission is to empower women by bridging the gap between their entrepreneurial ambitions and the opportunities needed to succeed. Too often, female founders face structural barriers: lack of access to funding, networks, and mentorship. At SIS, we’re creating a digital ecosystem that changes that. Through curated resources, funding guides, community support, and actionable tools, we make it easier for women to turn ideas into sustainable businesses. SIS combines education, community, and funding readiness in one place, offering practical templates, founder stories, and growth programs tailored to each stage of the entrepreneurial journey. We believe entrepreneurship should be accessible to everyone, not just those who already have connections or capital. That’s why we’re building SIS: a space where women founders can learn, connect, and grow together. Our platform will officially launch in 2026 and is currently in development. We’re looking for a passionate co-founder who shares our vision and wants to help shape the future of female entrepreneurship in Europe (and beyond).

Sikr

Sikr is the first company specializing in Cyber Security (CS) for Small and Midsized Enterprises (SMEs). We have a product, we have a few paying customers, and we are EU-funded though the Danish National Coordination Center for Cyber Security. Which is documented at https://ncc-dk.dk/ under supported projects pool 2, and their post on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/posts/ncc-dk-danmark-cybersecurity-coordination-centre_ncc-dk-netv%C3%A6rksm%C3%B8de-05022025-save-the-activity-7282724478550241280-YCw3 "Sikr" is in Danish pronounced "sikker" which means "safe", and we own the domain sikr.it & sikr-it.dk. We have developed a platform that helps SMEs to get basic CS, in a way that is as easy for the company to implement our products, while it is very non-intrusive and hands-off for us, and while it is as cheap as possible. The problem SMEs have with CS: Complexity and Cost: Many existing IT security solutions are designed for large corporations, making them overly complex and financially out of reach for SMEs.​ Lack of Resources: SMEs often lack dedicated IT departments, leaving them vulnerable to cyber threats without adequate protection or support.​ This issue leaves smaller businesses exposed to cyber risks, with limited options for effective and manageable security solutions, that in theory could have been avoided very easily. Why does this matter? Cybersecurity is not just a concern for large corporations; SMEs are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals, which most often puts them out of business. By providing a user-friendly, and affordable security solutions, Sikr empowers smaller businesses to protect their digital assets, maintain customer trust, and ensure business continuity.

We're now bringing that product to market. It’s an opportunity to join at the earliest stages—with all the challenges and rewards that come with it.

Plussa

Plussa is a mental health startup that coaches working parents to thrive. Working parents, especially moms, is the group with the highest risk for stress and burnout in the workforce.

The core feature is the Plussa-app with 24/7 parent coaching through expert AI-bots and psychologists combined with an extensive library of personalised engaging programs, exercises and articles. We support both moms and dads from pregnancy until the children move from home, covering areas like stress, sleep, NPF, work efficiency, child development, co-parent relationships and mindfulness. We founded Plussa after becoming parents in high achieving workplaces and found there is a lack of effective mental health services tailored for parents. With Plussa we have created a cost-effective service with a personalised and engaging user experience and are on a mission to help millions of parents globally to a better life.

UTRY

UTRY is not just building a product—we're redefining how fashion e-commerce works. We’re developing a 3D virtual fitting room that helps fashion brands reduce returns, increase sales, and create a seamless shopping experience. Customers can create personalized avatars based on their unique body measurements and try on clothes before they buy, eliminating guesswork and frustration. This isn’t just an upgrade to online shopping—it’s the future. The problem is massive. Fashion e-commerce is broken—return rates are sky-high, costing brands billions and generating unnecessary waste. Customers are tired of ordering multiple sizes, hoping something fits, and dealing with returns. It’s inefficient, expensive, and outdated. The industry is overdue for change, and we’re here to make it happen. Our solution is a game-changer. We’re building a plug-and-play virtual fitting room that integrates directly into fashion brands' online stores, using cutting-edge 3D technology to give customers an accurate preview of how clothes fit on their own body shape. Brands save millions, customers buy with confidence, and the industry moves toward a more sustainable future. We started UTRY because we’ve lived this problem ourselves. The frustration of ordering, waiting, trying, returning—it’s broken. We knew there had to be a better way, so we built it. Now, we’re on a mission to change the game for brands, shoppers, and the planet. This is not just another startup. This is the chance to be part of something that will reshape an entire industry. If you want to work on something bold, ambitious, and truly impactful, UTRY is the team you want to be with.

Virtual Art Gallery

The art world is stuck in the past. The world is full of art that nobody ever sees & artists who never get found. The world is full of people who love art & people who love to visit art exhibitions. The art world is not democratic and equal, and the opportunity to succeed is not available to all. Art galleries act as gatekeepers and define what is good art – not the buyers. Art exhibitions are expensive and not sustainable, and they are limited by time, space & location.​ The solution is online art exhibitions – Unlimited by reality and accessible to everyone. Exhibit & share your art freely in art exhibitions unlimited by space, time & location. Sell your art directly to buyers without commission. Online art exhibitions are the next best thing to being there. Visit art exhibitions remotely from the comfort of your browser and experience more art than would ever be possible in reality. Our vision is a democratic & sustainable art world. Our mission is to offer every artist an equal opportunity. Pre-seed funding closed in Q2/2025. Currently, 8 investors (2 from the US). Seed funding available in 2026. Invited to the EU-backed EIC Accelerator.

Aevy

We are developing a platform to help owners of renewable power plants and their service providers gaining access to the right information at the right time, enabling the right decisions. In order to achieve this we deconstruct the hundreds of documents describing each plant into snippets of information in accordance with our domain-driven data model. In the next 7 years, the world needs to invest almost twice what has been invested into renewable energy generation in the last 20 years. At the same time subsidies are being rolled back, increasing the need to for ensuring that projected ROI is not compromised by underperformance of the investments (i.e. plants). We have lived the pain, and know that NOW is the time to transform the way commercial management of renewable energy plants is being done.
