REKKI is an app designed by chefs for chefs to make ordering between restaurants and suppliers easier, more efficient and more accountable. We see it as our duty to reimagine the supply chain for the food industry. We believe independent restaurants are fundamental to society - they provide a space to connect and actually talk to each other - and we work to make them sustainable businesses. We are obsessed with the people who work to feed us. As a team, we spend a lot of time with people in the food industry, eating their food and listening to their stories. We love the grit and determination, the sweat, the wild stories, and the banter they have to share. These people work tirelessly so that others can indulge in experiences and expand their horizons. We build REKKI for them. We have proven international success in 6 countries, and that was just the start: We are now ramping up for international expansion.

Navnet SoSimple refererer til, at løsningen ofte er lige for næsen af os. På papiret så simpelt, men i praksis mere udfordrende – og udefrakommende hjælp og støtte er ofte afgørende for succes. SoSimple tilbyder coaching, mindfulness og terapi-forløb til virksomheder og private. Vi tør gå tæt på og udfordre til indsigt – så du bliver mere motiveret, og dermed skaber bedre resultater, både på bundlinjen og i dit liv som menneske.

Farm Legacy is a startup building the first AI-powered platform for farm succession, helping retiring farmers find the next generation to take over their land. Across Europe alone, 6.3M+ farms need a successor in the next decade. Globally, there are 608M+ farms, most of them family-run, and farming populations are aging in nearly every market. When no one steps in to take over, working farms get sold off, abandoned, or absorbed into industrial operations. Our goal is to keep family-scale farms alive by making succession simple: matching the right people, handling the legal and financial process, and supporting the new farmer with the tools they need to run the farm for years afterwards. At Farm Legacy, we believe the future of agriculture depends on the people who farm the land, and we are building the platform that makes the handover possible.

Bareen began as a passionate project created by four friends who shared a common frustration: the challenge of finding t-shirts that combined comfort, style, and high quality at an affordable price. To solve this problem, they took matters into their own hands to create their own designs – and that’s how Bareen was born. Since then, Bareen has evolved into a recognized fashion brand and sports community. We focus on creating versatile and functional designs – from everyday essentials to athleisure wear – without compromising on quality, comfort, or style. Although we have expanded our collection beyond just t-shirts, each piece is crafted with the same passion and attention to detail that formed the foundation of Bareen.
