At ReBite, we’re developing a protein bar that makes it easier to choose something truly healthy. Many people are looking for snacks that are simple, natural, and actually good for them. But most protein bars on the market today are highly processed and don’t live up to that. Most current protein bars: - Have long and confusing ingredient lists - Contain artificial sweeteners, additives, and protein isolates - Are high in protein, but offer very little fibre or real food ingredients - Don’t leave people feeling like they’ve eaten something healthy ReBite is different. Our bar is: - Made with whole, natural ingredients - 45% made from upcycled side-streams from the food industry in Copenhagen - Free from sweeteners, preservatives, and other additives - Made without protein isolates—only protein from original raw ingredients - High in fibre (10g) and with only 8g sugar from natural sources ReBite is a cleaner, more honest alternative for people who want a snack that’s better for both their body and the planet.

Lulu Health is an early-stage tech startup building the future of menstrual cycle tracking by combining hardware and software. With data and science, we are empowering women to understand their body and hormonal cycle. More than ever before, women are interested in tracking and understanding their menstrual cycle. Today, the majority of women are disconnected from their menstrual cycle due to modern’s life stress, birth prevention and lack of information. As an example, ~80% of women don’t know when their monthly ovulation occurs, the main event in their menstrual cycle and a key health indicator. This lack of awareness is a contributing factor to the growing problem of hormonal diseases (~60% of women suffers from hormonal imbalances) and infertility worldwide (~15-20% of women).
