About Meat City Music Club (MCMC) Meat City Music Club (MCMC) is building a new kind of cultural hub in Copenhagen, bringing together music, hospitality and community through the concept of a vinyl listening bar. Based in Kødbyen, MCMC creates a space where music is more than background noise. In a world increasingly shaped by digital playlists, algorithms and fast-paced experiences, we want to bring people closer to music through intentional listening, vinyl culture and shared experiences. Our concept combines carefully curated music, vinyl DJs, quality drinks and a welcoming atmosphere. Through themed music nights, collaborations with DJs and record collectors, and community-driven events, we give people the opportunity to discover new sounds, connect with others and experience music in a more engaging way. MCMC was born out of a passion for music and the belief that there is room for more meaningful, social music experiences. We want to create a place where culture and hospitality meet, bringing together people who share a curiosity for music and a desire to be part of something different. As an early-stage startup, we’re building MCMC from the ground up, developing the concept, growing our community and exploring new ways to bring music and people together. We’re excited about the journey ahead and the opportunity to build something distinctive in Copenhagen’s cultural scene.

Many people in Norway who run a sole proprietorship (ENK) do their own books and file their own tax return. Many of them do not know which deductions the law gives them, or they are unsure and leave them out. TaxSimplify is a web service that helps them find the deductions they are entitled to. The user logs in with BankID and enters their own figures. We go through 23 deduction categories, such as home office, car, equipment and courses, and show what may apply, with the rule and the source in the law for each one. The user approves everything before anything is passed on to the Norwegian Tax Administration, and the user is responsible for the information in the tax return. Pricing is no cure, no pay: the customer pays 20 % of what the deductions save them in tax. If we find nothing, it costs nothing. Tax returns can be corrected up to three years back, and the service is made for sole proprietors and freelancers. Next to this, AutoFix gives deadline reminders and guidance through the whole tax year: advance tax, VAT, the tax return and letters from the Tax Administration.

Skilltage runs the hiring process up to the interview: the role, the applications, the evidence in each CV, and one answer in the candidate's own words. We build AI-assisted recruitment software for small and medium-sized businesses. Our focus is everything before the interview, helping owners, operations managers, HR generalists and small hiring teams prepare a clearer basis for the conversations that matter. As AI-polished applications become increasingly similar, recruiters need to see the experience behind the wording. Skilltage helps teams define structured role requirements, turn PDF CVs into candidate information, and review job-relevant evidence, gaps and uncertainty against those requirements. Relevant experience can be expressed through different job titles or terminology; our approach helps bring that evidence into focus for human review. Skilltage Unscripted adds asynchronous video interviews to the workflow. A recruiter writes one focused, role-relevant question, and the candidate records an answer on their own time. The candidate's selected answer, transcript and transcript-grounded summary give the hiring team more material to review before an interview. Role definition, candidate intake, CV screening, candidate evaluation, video responses and recruiter-reviewed invitations come together in one organisation workspace. Recruiters choose whom to meet, decide how candidates progress and control candidate communication. AI prepares review material; people make hiring decisions. Skilltage serves SMEs across industries that handle recurring hiring, receive enough applications to make manual review demanding, and want structured recruitment without the complexity of an enterprise recruitment stack. Our European-first approach is grounded in localized experiences, privacy-conscious workflows, inspectable evidence and meaningful human oversight. Public content is available in English, Danish, Dutch and Polish. Pay-as-you-go evaluation packs and subscription options support both occasional recruitment and recurring hiring.

KhaosGuard is making greenhouse gas emissions visible. KhaosGuard is developing a new generation of laser and optical technology that can measure, map and quantify greenhouse gas emissions across large areas in real time. By combining advanced mid-infrared laser spectroscopy, optical sensor networks and wind-field data, we can turn complex emission plumes into accurate, quantitative measurements of where emissions come from and how much is being released. Our technology brings together advanced spectroscopy and atmospheric modelling in a robust field system — creating a level of spatial and real-time emissions intelligence that has not previously been available. Starting with wastewater treatment Our first focus is wastewater treatment plants, where we are helping operators detect, localise and quantify nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions — commonly known as laughing gas and a highly potent greenhouse gas. By making these emissions visible, we give wastewater operators the intelligence they need to understand what is happening across their plants, identify emission hotspots and optimise their processes for greater efficiency and lower emissions. Ultimately, our goal is simple: you cannot optimise what you cannot measure.

Jeg ville ikke prøvd å beskrive dere som én startup med én problemstilling. Det interessante er nettopp at kandidaten kommer inn i et lite økosystem av ekte virksomheter og nye konsepter. På The Hub er det en styrke, særlig for den typen tech/AI-nysgjerrige student vi vil ha. Jeg ville skrevet det slik: About us We have a slightly unusual setup. We run several businesses and projects across hospitality, consumer products, media and design. Some are established businesses with employees, customers and real revenue. Others are early-stage ideas we are currently trying to turn into something real. Møllefossen is a café, event venue and hospitality concept in Oslo. We are building a premium Norwegian mineral water brand. We work with wine import, are developing new consumer products, and are currently launching a podcast. More ideas tend to appear faster than we can execute them. That is essentially the problem we are trying to solve. We are good at coming up with concepts, building businesses, finding opportunities and getting things moving. But today, a surprisingly large part of turning an idea into reality is digital: a website needs to be built, a brand needs an identity, something needs to be filmed, a product needs packaging, a podcast needs to become 15 good clips, or an idea needs to be tested before spending weeks and a lot of money on it. AI is changing how much a very small team can actually do. We want to take advantage of that properly – not by generating endless mediocre content, but by combining good taste, creativity and new technology to move much faster from “we should do this” to “it’s live.” That is why we are looking for someone who gets genuinely excited by having Framer open in one window, ChatGPT or Claude in another, a half-finished Reel on the screen and a completely new project landing on their desk the following week. If you need a clearly defined corporate job description and six months of planning before launching something, this probably isn’t the right place. If that sounds like fun, it might be.

Victoriny Records is an independent music company focused on developing and growing modern electronic artists through a combination of strong creative direction, data-driven marketing and direct fan engagement. We are solving a common problem for independent artists: great music often struggles to reach the right audience because marketing is fragmented, expensive and too dependent on platform algorithms. Our goal is to build a more connected system around each release, combining smart digital campaigns, content, streaming strategy and owned fan relationships so artists can turn listeners into long-term supporters and build sustainable careers.
