RightHair

RightHair is developing a global market and education platform for curly and afro-textured hair to help people and minority women solve the problems of lack of availability of products and services and women's challenges in being financially independent worldwide. Through RightHair we give women all over the world an opportunity to start their own businesses and be financially independent. We do this by creating a software platform to connect freelancers, retailers and hairdressers to their customers. And we top that off with a “skill share” community for education. People with curls and afro textured hair are excluded from offers and services in today's beauty industry. Also, financial abuse is one of the main reasons why women are unable to leave relationships, worldwide. These problems contribute to discrimination in society, that women with minority backgrounds end up outside society and this makes the poor poorer. Women of color are excluded from many of the existing offers worldwide. RightHair solves these problems by creating a market platform where all services and products meet. So that people with curly and afro textured hair always can find something in their area. We also solve women's job and financial challenges around the world by offering a platform on which they can sell their products and services. Here they also get the opportunity to take courses, learn how to start and build a business and collaborate with partners outside their network. RightHair was founded by Lalla Coulibaly and Olimata Jeng who both grew up in Norway with roots from Africa. Due to the lack of offers for themselves and their community, the ladies each started their own platforms. Over the past 5 years, Krølltopp.no and Norwegian Naturals have grown into Norway's largest platforms for curly and afro textured hair with a total of 12,000 monthly users. now the ladies have teamed up to start RightHair as the question they get the most on their platforms is “where can I get my hair cut” and “where can I find products?''. Both ladies want to put time and energy into something that can contribute to women's opportunities and living conditions. This desire comes from their own experience as minority women in Norway with African roots.

Højskolen Baobab

Højskolen Baobab er en dansk højskole i udlandet for unge mellem 18 og 30 år med fokus på kommunikation, journalistik og medier. Vi kombinerer levende og inspirerende undervisning med tropiske rejseoplevelser, og lægger stor vægt på fællesskab og højskoleånd. Undervisningen er ambitiøs, men med masser af plads til udforske de lande, vi rejser til. Vi fokuserer undervisningen omkring kommunikation, journalistik og medier i bredest mulige forstand, og du får konkrete værktøjer og erfaringer, som du kan tage med videre i din uddannelse og dit arbejdsliv. Undervisningen foregår mellem kl. 9-13 på hverdage, vi holder undervisningsfri i weekenderne, og der er cirka to rejseuger på hvert højskoleophold, hvor du har mulighed for at rejse til nærliggende lande eller seværdigheder. På det fleste af vores destinationer er det også muligt at tage dykkercertifikat, lære at surfe eller at hakke andre ting af på din bucket list. Alle er velkomne, og de fleste elever er mellem 18 og 30 år. Nogle har en drøm om at søge ind på en uddannelse, som kræver forberedelse eller noget kvalificeret at skrive på kvote 2-ansøgningen. Andre vil gerne opleve verden med åbne øjne i et stærkt fælleskab, mens de får ny viden ved siden af deres uddannelse eller job. Højskolen Baobab er stiftet i 2022, men har rødder helt tilbage fra 2012, hvor den første gang opstod med et højskoleophold i Uganda. Højskolen er stiftet af Robin Juel Johansen, som blandt andet har arbejdet med journalistik om Afrika, kommunikation og kampagner for en lang række politiske organisationer og private virksomheder, og i en medieorganisation, som kæmper for frie mediers rettigheder i konfliktområder. Robin er drevet af nysgerrighed på verden, og brænder for at give dig oplevelser, som du tager med dig videre i livet. Højskolens øvrige undervisere deler samme passion for at udforske verden langt fra den danske andedam og har alle en stor passion for at tilrettelægge interessant og ambitiøs undervisning.

Soletair Power

Utilizing building ventilation systems to capture atmospheric CO2 and generate three-way benefits - reducing emissions, environmental benefits, and reducing CO2 exposure for the residents. Over half of the world’s population is currently urban, with predictions that this number will likely grow by 1.56 billion over the next two decades. As a result, we will see new megalopolises emerge, and an exponential increase in the construction of new buildings and CO2 emissions. This surge in the number of people living and working in buildings will only reinforce the challenge of guaranteeing the best air quality levels possible. A high concentration of CO2 has been proven to make people feel dizzy, tired, and sleepy. A Harvard study shows that for each 400-ppm increase in indoor CO2 concentration, our cognitive function score becomes 20% lower. Ours is the most affordable technology for increasing overall employee wellbeing by preventing their productivity from decreasing by 20%. If buildings can be used as CO2 capturing machines the lifetime emission can be offset. One single system for building ventilation of 3m3/s can capture 20 tons of CO2 per year. In a single building, one might have, for example, 20 ventilation units. So, per building, it is 400 tons of CO2 captured per year. When the system is used with renewable electricity (5kWh energy required per kilo CO2 captured) (20g/kWh) the emission is 100g when 1000g is captured. By transforming buildings into carbon sinks, net-zero targets can become achievable. Buildings become an active protector of environments and contribute to global negative CO2 emissions. Soletair Power captures carbon utilizing buildings' ventilation systems, which achieves up to a 50% reduction in emissions, supports employee wellbeing, and increases productivity. Soletair Power’s modular solution operates with a plug-and-play approach, enabling any company to install and use Direct Air Capture. The captured carbon can be reused as a non-fossil-based resource in a wide array of applications, effectively rewinding the impact of CO2.

DoMore Diagnostics

DoMore Diagnostics is on a mission to transform cancer diagnostics with artificial intelligence to improve patient care and make drug development more effective. We use state-of-the-art methods to improve patients’ quality of life and help clinicians make more informed decisions. Our technology is based on pioneering research on utilizing artificial intelligence to increase the prognostic value from routine clinical pathology cancer tissue samples. The extensive research conducted at top universities (University in Oslo, Oxford University and University College of London) has been published in leading and high impact scientific journals such as The Lancet and Nature Reviews Cancer. These new methods have resulted in fully automated histotyping that provide objective and precise prognostic information that correlate and out-perform existing markers. This novel histotyping can guide selection of therapy to avoid over- and undertreatment. It can also make cancer drug development more effective by ensuring more precise diagnosis and prognosis, which is the fundament for precision medicine. Artificial intelligence is set for a breakthrough in medicine and several megatrends are pushing for new solutions in cancer diagnostics. Digital pathology and new AI algorithms will play a significant role in the future of medicine and hold multiple commercial opportunities. DoMore Diagnostics is at the forefront of the field and will bring these next generation products to the clinic.
