Defend Denmark er Danmarks første og eneste lokale bug bounty platform. Vi forbinder danske etiske hackere med danske virksomheder, så sårbarheder bliver opdaget og lukket inden de udvikler sig til reelle trusler. På platformen kan etiske hackere lede efter sikkerhedshuller hos vores kunder. Finder en hacker en reel sårbarhed, udbetaler kunden en dusør. Det gør it-sikkerhed resultatorienteret frem for tidsorienteret, som ellers er normen i konsulentverdenen. Målet er at få flere danske virksomheder til at tage bug bounty modellen til sig som et aktivt værktøj i deres sikkerhedsarbejde. Defend Denmark er søstervirksomhed til islandske Defend Iceland. Vi er stadig tidligt i opbygningen af virksomheden og kommende medarbejdere får reel indflydelse på de praktiske rammer, herunder kontorplacering og daglige arbejdsgange.

Swed Fintech AB is developing tech-driven investor outreach and capital allocation programs to help emerging finance talent bridge the gap between academic theory and professional practice through advanced, systematic learning. There is a critical gap between traditional finance education and the demands of a modern, technology-driven investment ecosystem.

FiltraCare is developing an innovative cigarette filter collection and recycling system to help cities and local communities tackle the international growing problem of cigarette waste. The mision is to provide an efficient, eco-friendly way to collect, store, and recycle cigarette filters, transforming a harmful pollutant into a valuable resource while reducing environmental damage caused by microplastics. Cigarette filters are the most common form of litter globally, contributing heavily to environmental pollution. They break down into microplastics that harm marine life and biodiversity. FiltraCare aims to address this problem by creating a scalable system that allows cities and businesses to collect and recycle cigarette filters before they are littered in landfills or oceans. The problem is widespread, affecting urban areas, natural environments, and public spaces worldwide, with billions of filters discarded every year. At FiltraCare, I have developed custom cigarette filter collection devices designed for urban environments and public spaces. These ashtrays will in the future collect used filters, which will be stored in airtight containers to prevent contamination. Filters will be sent to our recycling partner, who recycles them. It is the goal for FiltraCare to be able to recycle cigarette filters internally. Currently I am in the process of realising the pilot project in collaboration with local businesses and city authorities that are helping me fine-tune the logistics and scaling potential. By integrating this solution into existing urban infrastructures, we offer a seamless process for reducing cigarette filter waste. The idea for FiltraCare came when I realized how ubiquitous and damaging cigarette filters are to our environment. Walking through city streets, parks, and beaches, I saw the big amount of cigarette waste and understood its long-term impact on ecosystems. This prompted me to dive into research, learning that cigarette filters are composed of non-biodegradable materials that release microplastics into nature. Fueled by a passion for environmental sustainability and innovation, I decided to focus all my energy on creating a solution to this pressing problem, believing that even small changes in waste management can lead to big environmental improvements.

At Centi, we believe in the power of ownership.

We are building the leading equity management platform that enables businesses to manage equity ownership and engage their employees. We are still in the first innings of a long game, and we are looking for talented people to join us in our mission to create better outcomes for all. Our goal is to take the friction out of ownership and make it, well, just… work.
