CircuCity

CircuCity is a circular e-commerce platform built to make sustainable consumption easier, more practical, and honestly, more appealing in everyday life. At its core, it is a marketplace where people can buy and sell second-hand items alongside new sustainable products, all within one ecosystem designed to extend product life cycles. But it’s not just about transactions. It’s about shifting habits. The problem we are addressing is rooted in the linear economy — the “take, make, dispose” model that still dominates global consumption patterns. Products are manufactured, purchased, used briefly, and discarded, often long before their functional life ends. This cycle drives resource depletion, carbon emissions, and growing waste streams. At the same time, consumers are becoming more aware of environmental challenges. Many want to make better choices, but the systems around them are fragmented and inconvenient. Second-hand markets exist, of course. But they are often scattered across multiple platforms, inconsistent in quality, and sometimes lacking trust. Sustainable alternatives, on the other hand, can be expensive or difficult to find. As a result, the intention to consume responsibly frequently clashes with convenience, price, and habit. People default to what is easiest — and that often means buying new, fast, and disposable. CircuCity bridges this gap. We provide a unified, user-friendly platform where circular choices are not an afterthought but the default. By integrating resale, reuse, and sustainable new products into one marketplace, we reduce friction in the decision-making process. Users can extend the life of items they no longer need, discover quality second-hand goods, and support more responsible brands — all in one place. Beyond functionality, we are building incentives into the system. Through mechanisms such as reward points, engagement challenges, and community features, CircuCity makes sustainable behavior visible and rewarding. The goal is not to lecture or guilt consumers into better habits. It is to design a system where circular consumption feels natural, economically sensible, and even motivating. Why does this matter? Because structural change requires behavioral change, and behavioral change requires better infrastructure. People cannot be expected to consistently choose sustainability if the systems around them prioritize speed and disposability. By making circular options more accessible, trustworthy, and engaging, we aim to shift consumption patterns at scale. CircuCity is not claiming to solve overconsumption overnight. But we believe that by extending product lifespans, reducing unnecessary waste, and empowering conscious consumers, we can contribute to a more regenerative economic model. In the long run, small individual decisions — when supported by the right platform — can accumulate into meaningful systemic impact. That is the space we operate in: practical sustainability, built into everyday commerce.

United Nations Youth Association(UNYA) Denmark

UNYA Copenhagen is a volunteer-driven youth organization dedicated to empowering young people to engage with global challenges through the lens of the United Nations’ values and the Sustainable Development Goals. We create an inclusive platform where students and young professionals can learn, collaborate, and take action on issues like climate change, social inequality, peacebuilding, and innovation. We are addressing a clear and growing problem i.e. the disconnect between youth and global institutions. Many young people in Denmark care deeply about sustainability and justice but find it difficult to access meaningful opportunities to participate in international dialogue or contribute to real-world impact. This gap leaves motivated individuals without a channel to apply their energy, creativity, and ideas, while institutions miss out on fresh perspectives and engagement from the very generation that will inherit the future. UNYA Copenhagen bridges this divide by turning global ideals into local action. We organize interactive events, workshops, and panel discussions that make complex global topics accessible and relevant. Our activities are co-created by volunteers from diverse academic and cultural backgrounds who bring their own insights to the table. Through collaboration with universities, NGOs, and public institutions, we connect youth directly with experts and decision-makers, fostering a sense of shared responsibility and agency. What makes UNYA Copenhagen unique is our grassroots approach. We are not just an organization — we are a community that thrives on collective energy and creativity. Every project is designed by young people for young people, ensuring authenticity, inclusivity, and long-term motivation. Our strength lies in our diversity and the genuine commitment of our volunteers, who bring the UN’s global mission to life in a way that feels personal and actionable. The motivation behind UNYA Copenhagen is simple: we believe that youth engagement should not be limited to classrooms or conferences but should become a lived experience. We started this initiative because we wanted to make international dialogue tangible, local, and inspiring. Our team members share a passion for learning, community-building, and positive change — values that drive us to dedicate our time to building something meaningful together. Today, UNYA Copenhagen continues to grow as a platform where ideas turn into impact. We are seeking motivated individuals who want to gain experience in leadership, communication, and project management while contributing to a global cause. By joining The Hub’s Community Program, we hope to reach more passionate volunteers who want to be part of a dynamic network that connects Copenhagen’s youth with the world.

Nearby

Across cities, countless square meters are sitting unused – basements, garages, parking spots, and storage rooms. At the same time, people are struggling to find space: the driver without a parking option, the student with too many moving boxes, or the small business in need of affordable storage nearby. Today, the market is fragmented. On one side, people rely on Facebook groups and classifieds – messy, insecure, and inefficient. On the other side, traditional self-storage companies offer standardized units, but often at high prices and in inconvenient locations. What’s missing is a trusted, flexible platform that brings everything together – where you can easily find, rent, and share all kinds of space, from a neighbor’s garage to professional self-storage, in one seamless experience. That’s the gap we’re here to fill with Nearby.

Virkley

Virkley helps real estate developers and agencies sell properties before they are built by transforming 2D floorplans into interactive, life-like virtual showrooms. The Problem Selling homes that don’t yet exist is challenging. Buyers struggle to visualize and plan their future space from static floorplans, leading to indecision, lengthy sales cycles, and lost revenue. Real estate companies often rely on expensive, time-consuming 3D agencies to create visualizations—making it impractical to showcase every unit interactively. Even after purchase, buyers risk making poor furnishing decisions, wasting time and money on furniture that doesn’t fit. Our Solution Virkley transforms the static 2D floorplans into hyper-realistic virtual property tours, allowing buyers to step inside a space before it’s built. They can walk through rooms, switch between furnished and unfurnished views, adjust interiors, and take measurements. This helps property developers and real estate agencies showcase homes more effectively while making the buying experience more engaging and informed.

Mundane

Mundane udvikler stilfulde, plantebaserede interiørprodukter for at hjælpe miljøbevidste hjemmeejere med at skabe smukke og bæredygtige rum, ved at anvende innovative, komposterbare materialer. Vi adresserer problemet med traditionelle hjemmeprodukter, der ofte er fremstillet af ikke-bæredygtige materialer, hvilket bidrager til miljøbelastningen. Dette påvirker i stigende grad miljøbevidste forbrugere, der ønsker at indrette deres hjem med omtanke for planeten. Problemet er udbredt, da mange almindelige interiørprodukter er lavet af plastik eller andre ressourcer, der ikke nedbrydes naturligt. Mundane løser dette ved at designe og producere interiørprodukter, primært plantekasser i øjeblikket, af PLA, et plantebaseret og komposterbart materiale. Vi fokuserer på minimalistisk, skandinavisk design, der kombinerer æstetik og funktionalitet. Vores produkter er designet til at holde længe og nedbrydes naturligt, når de ikke længere er i brug. Vi anvender bæredygtig emballage og stræber efter at minimere vores miljøaftryk i alle led af produktionen. Vores motivation stammer fra en dyb bekymring for miljøet og et ønske om at gøre en positiv forskel. Vi oplevede en mangel på stilfulde og bæredygtige interiørprodukter på markedet og ønskede at skabe et alternativ, der både er smukt og ansvarligt. Vi tror på, at design kan være en drivkraft for forandring, og vi er passionerede omkring at skabe produkter, der inspirerer andre til at leve mere bæredygtigt.
