Listfully is a platform where you can make lists of anything you'd like to receive as gift, and share them with family and friends. List anything- whether found at a physical location or online. Combine items from large retailers with things found at a small local business or a non-physical gift like an experience or donation.   We hope to help people "give and get better" by increasing consciousness and reducing waste. And also, we think gifts can be a hassle and this just made sense.

FoodFarm is an integrated platform that allows companies to arrange food for their employees, and have it brought to their offices daily. It is an alternative to the traditional canteen. It offers users a selection of kitchens and food types to choose from ordered via the app. Companies can choose from a range of kitchens , change them when desired and individual employees can also unsubscribe. All these actions are automated, which translates to: high speed and efficiency. Food Farm is so much more than just ordering your lunch. What we offer is the world's first co-created food platform.In essence, this means that we strive to deliver food in the most efficient way possible by engaging with each user in our value chain. When we started, we wanted to make ordering food cheaper but in our efforts to do so, we realized we had started building a new system for food services. Our vision is to connect every aspect of the value chain from the person producing the food to the person growing it to the final consumer. In doing so and with better communication between these different actors, we hope to reduce food waste not just within Norway, but also on a global level. Our business model is very lean and we don't need a lot of resources to enter other markets and we know that that is where we would like to be to contribute towards addressing the larger issue of food waste.

BuddyUp Social is a social discovery platform helping adults in Denmark—especially expats and newcomers—find meaningful connections through shared interests and real-life events. We’re solving the problem of adult social isolation by making it easy to create, join, and engage in hobby-based meetups, all through one intuitive app. Making friends as an adult can be surprisingly difficult. Whether you're a Dane moving to a new city or an expat starting fresh in Denmark, it’s common to feel socially disconnected. Many adults don’t know where to start when it comes to meeting new people outside of work, dating apps, or closed social circles. This problem is widespread and well-documented—especially in Denmark, where surveys consistently show that many internationals struggle with social integration, and even locals describe it as awkward to make new friends past a certain age. We’re tackling this head-on by making socializing more accessible, interest-based, and low-pressure. BuddyUp Social is designed to break down the barriers of adult friendship and create opportunities for spontaneous, real-world connection. Whether it’s joining a hike, hosting a board game night, attending a ceramics class, or finding a casual pub quiz crew, BuddyUp is all about connecting people who are "up for it"—with no pressure, no awkward messaging phase, and no algorithms getting in the way. Unlike traditional social platforms focused on digital interaction, BuddyUp is built around real-life meetups. Users can explore and join events happening near them, or create their own. Events can be public or invite-only, recurring or one-off, and are always centered around shared hobbies or interests. The app also welcomes collaborations with local businesses, allowing them to showcase open community events, bringing even more variety and accessibility to users. We’re launching in Denmark first—starting with Copenhagen and Aarhus—before expanding to similar cities across Europe. The idea behind BuddyUp was born from personal experience. As someone who returned to Denmark after years abroad, and with friends struggling to meet people after relocating, it became clear how socially challenging adulthood can be. We kept hearing the same story: “I’d love to meet new people, but I just don’t know how or where.” Instead of settling for outdated forums, clunky Facebook groups, or apps not designed for platonic connection, we decided to build a better solution ourselves. BuddyUp is more than an app—it’s a movement to make adult friendship and community-building normal, easy, and enjoyable again. We’re passionate about creating a product that helps people feel less alone and more empowered to take the first step toward new friendships. We believe that real-life connections are essential for personal happiness and social wellbeing—and we’re here to make those moments happen.

AddMeetings is an AI-powered meeting qualification platform for B2B professionals. It is the first place where they can say, “Find my time on AddMeetings,” knowing every meeting request comes with a pitch-first approach and a paywall, ensuring relevance, intent, and zero spam. Only high-quality conversations make it through. Decision makers are overwhelmed by a flood of cold, irrelevant, low-quality outreach and meeting requests every day. With the rise of automation, inboxes are full of noise, making it harder to spot valuable opportunities. AddMeetings solves this by filtering and qualifying inbound meeting requests so buyers only see the ones worth their time. The explosion of AI-powered sales tools has made outbound outreach faster—but not smarter. B2B professionals are overwhelmed with irrelevant messages, low-quality pitches, and wasted time. Yet, there's no platform built for the recipient. AddMeetings is solving this at the perfect moment. We're flipping the script with an AI-powered meeting qualification platform designed for decision makers. As outbound automation floods inboxes, professionals now need a smart gatekeeper. With AddMeetings, they can simply say, “Find my time on AddMeetings,” and trust that every request has passed through a pitch-first, pay-to-pitch filter, stopping spam at the source and surfacing only valuable conversations. The shift is clear: from volume to value, from sender-first to recipient-first. AddMeetings is leading that shift.

SomebodyMakeIt is building the go-to marketplace for turning ideas into real-world products; validated by demand, created by makers, and produced locally. Think of it as a next-gen product innovation layer, where ideas don’t just sit in sketchbooks, they ship. We’re solving one of the biggest inefficiencies in the physical product world: most products fail because they’re built before validating demand. We flip that around. Anyone can post an idea, see if others want it, and match with creators and local producers to bring it to life. IP is protected from day one, revenue is fairly shared, and even the original idea-owner earns a cut when their concept succeeds. We’re starting where the need is urgent: entertainment and museum sectors craving flexible, small-batch, and custom products. Our first pilot customer is a sci-fi TV series, and we’re onboarding makers, fans and producers across EU, US and the Nordics. SomebodyMakeIt reduces risk, waste and friction, and opens up a new, sustainable way to test, fund and produce physical goods at scale. We’re a small but ambitious team building what we wish existed. We’re moving fast — and looking for the right people to help shape what’s next.
