Nordic Makers is an early-stage investor founded by entrepreneurs that have built some of the largest technology companies out of the Nordics (e.g. Zendesk, JustEat, Sitecore, TAT). We know how much grit and luck it takes to build big companies. We are not a fund but we invest our time and our children’s money in crazy, gritty and ambitious founders. We work hands-on with our portfolio companies to share the learnings we had from building our own companies. We hope to contribute to the Nordic ecosystem becoming even stronger in supporting growth companies throughout their journey.

Dyrk is like an Airbnb, but for gardens. We let garden owners rent out their garden to people who needs some space to grow their own vegetables. The growers will pay a monthly subscription to be able to grow their own vegetables in a garden. The garden owners can put their garden out on our platform and wait for growers to apply so they can earn money. There does not exist a way to rent a garden space or to rent out your garden. The alternative today if you do not own a garden yourself is to sign up for allotment garden through the municipality. In Oslo the allotment from the municipality has a waiting time of atleast 20 years. The waiting time is far too long on today’s alternatives for growing. After corona the interest for growing vegetables has been booming. We tackle this problem by letting people who own a garden rent it out to these people that want to grow, but do not have the space themselves.

Kvikk is a B2C Insurtech company disrupting the travel insurance sector through our mobile platform. Designed with millennials, Gen Z and their expectations in mind, our vision is clear: 
Revolutionizing the way we protect ourselves while exploring the world. We are leveraging GEO-fencing technology to distribute, personalize and offer quotes tailored to your location in real-time. No more hassle with paperwork or waiting in line. We are 100% digital and are providing a full insurance experience in the pockets of everyone leaving their homes. In Norway 50% of all young adults don't have travel insurance, and they perceive insurance as complicated, expensive and unavailable. At the same time, the insurance industry lacks digitisation with only 40% of all insurance sales taking place on a digital platform. We have developed travel insurance tailored to the specific needs of each traveller, all within a convenient and user-friendly app. By harnessing the power of GEO-fencing we ensure travellers receive seamless coverage when and where they need it, offering a level of flexibility unseen in the industry. We have built the insurance product, and we are going to build the app. Simen started working on Kvikk while studying Innovation & Management, and has previously been travelling around the world several times and do understand the importance of travel insurance. We honestly believe that insurance companies should do better. In this digital world, insurance should be more available for the customer. There should be possible to buy insurance, get an overview and file claims within minutes, and always available in your own pocket. We also believe in fair and transparent products, where the customer actually gets a personalised products tailored to their own travel pattern. We want to rewrite the rules of insurance by making it available, fair, easy and personalised.

På hoteller er koordineringen af den daglige drift ofte karakteriseret ved en forkærlighed for post-it notes og lange e-mail-tråde. What’s not to like? *Ironi kan forekomme. 😉 Som det ligger mellem linjerne, er kommunikationsflowet på hoteller ofte præget af håndholdte processer, hvor informationen er lagret i statiske skabeloner, primært opbygget i Word eller Excel. Det resulterer i ineffektive arbejdsgange og vigtig information, der går tabt, hvilket direkte påvirker bundlinjen i form af spildte mandetimer og unødvendigt højt kundetab. Syncdesk er sat i verdenen, for at løse det problem og gøre arbejdsdagen lettere for medarbejderen i driften, receptionisten, tjeneren, rengøringspersonalet osv. Vi strømliner koordinering af den daglige drift på hoteller, ved at tilbyde en brugervenlig kommunikationsplatform, som gør det nemt, at dele information på tværs af huset. Det sikrer, at informationen er let tilgængeligt til den rigtige medarbejder på det helt rigtige tidspunkt. 🤝 I hotelbranchen har man en løbende drift 24/7, 365 dage om året. Det skaber et flow af konstant information, som skal behandles eller løses, både mellem vagthold internt i teams eller på tværs af afdelinger. I den forbindelse er der et stort pres på det interne kommunikationsflow for at sikre en smidig koordinering af den daglige drift – det kan være alt fra information relateret til gruppebookinger til håndtering af manglende betalinger eller særlige gæsteforespørgsler. Grundet de eksisterende løsningers manglende struktur og overblik spildes der meget tid på at sikre, at kommunikationen bliver modtaget på det korrekte tidspunkt af den rigtige medarbejder. Til trods for det store arbejde tabes meget vigtig information stadig mellem to stole. 😓 Med Syncdesk simplificerer vi kommunikationsflowet på tværs af hele hotellet og skaber et simpelt overblik over relevant information til den enkelte medarbejder.   Tre måneder efter implementering af Syncdesk føler 91% af de adspurgte receptionister, at de er bedre forberedt, når de starter arbejdsdagen. Det resulterer i, at 82% føler, at de kan levere en forbedret service til hotellets gæster. 🥳 På nuværende tidspunkt er vi tre co-founders på teamet: Christian (26), Alfred (22) og Frederik (22). Vi driver Syncdesk efter bootstrap princippet og vi vægter højt at fastholde friheden til at have os selv med på rejsen og at vi har vores brugere i højsædet.   Vi tror på, at det handler om at finde de rigtige mennesker, inden man kan fastsætte den rigtige retning.   Til daglig sidder vi på Frederiksberg og er en del af CSE (Copenhagen School of Entrepreneurship). CSE er et kontorfællesskab, primært for unge iværksættere, som giver en fremragende mulighed for at sparre og begå sig med andre ambitiøse founders. Kontoret ligger lige ned til Frederiksberg Have, hvilket giver en oplagt mulighed for en gåtur efter frokost, eller hvis man bare skal luftes igennem - og så kan man drikke så meget kaffe, som man har lyst til, selvom det dog ikke helt er baristakaffe. ☕️

Today, 7 of 10 Swedes walk around with an untreated skin problem. And even WITH a referral, you have to wait up to 6 months to get qualified help. No more. We started Dr Hud because we believe that skin patients deserve a better healthcare experience. Several of us have ourselves suffered from skin problems, long waiting times and incorrect assessments, and unfortunately we are not alone. The team, which consists of both dermatologists and people with many years of experience in healthcare scaleups (incl Doctrin, Kry, Uber and others), aim to offer a service that is better for patients, doctors and the healthcare system as a whole. Let's fix skin. One rash, mole or itch at a time.

At GoGood, we work towards developing a reuse economy for office furniture that will be preferred to the consumer economy. Our solution consists of a digital reuse-platform that aims to become a driving force in the reuse economy for used office furniture. We have taken a concrete approach, starting with office interiors as our initial focus. In Norway alone, the office furniture market is worth over 4 billion annually, yet we discard 140,000 tons of furniture valued at 400-500 million Norwegian kroner each year. This cannot continue. That's why we have developed a reuse-platform for furniture, including a marketplace for the professional furniture market, making it incredibly easy for businesses, interior architects, and other stakeholders to sell their furniture while also simplifying the process of purchasing used furniture for interior projects, as well as making old furniture look new again. Over the past two years, we have made significant progress in developing modern reuse solutions, products, and services. With public support totaling over 15 million Norwegian kroner from the Research Council of Norway, Innovation Norway, and the Oslo municipality, as well as partnerships with industry players such as Flokk, Aarsland, Ope, Norsk Gjenvinning, Glomma Industrier, Hannah Nordh, Oslo Waste and Recycling Agency, NORSUS - Norwegian Institute for Sustainability Research, Norsk Regnesentral, and OBOS, we are now ready with our reuse-platform making the circular economy for office furniture on a large scale possible-

Provargo A/S er markedsførende indenfor drikkevarekontrol. Vi udvikler, producerer og leverer online baserede doserings og kontrolsystemer til hospitality branchen, med et væld af kunder i både Danmark og resten af verden. Vi gennemgår i øjeblikket en spændende fase i vores udvikling som virksomhed, med et større fokus rettet mod bar,-, hotel-, og restaurationskæder. Samtidig arbejder vi også tæt sammen med distributører på markedet. I bar og restaurationsbranchen er det almindeligt at se relativt høje spildprocenter på drikkevarer. Det resulterer i to problemstillinger: 1) Et stort tab af omsætning. 2) Manglende overblik over reel lagerbeholdning af eksempelvis fustager, flasker, post-mix beholdere, osv. Derfor har vi udviklet systemer der synliggør på et online dashboard, nøjagtigt hvad der tappes af såvel spiritus, som øl, vin og sodavand. Alle tappedata registreres med tidsstempler og er i stand til at give brugeren et overblik over forbrugsmønstre, lagerniveauer, spidsbelastninger af personale, faktisk forbrug af drikkevarerne der tilbydes, m.v. Vores kerneprodukt er i stand til at integrere med cloud-baserede POS systemer, hvilket gør det muligt for udvalgte personer (eksempelvis ejere eller lokale driftschefer) at overvåge balanceforholdet imellem salg og faktiske udskænkninger. Herudover tilbyder vi også øvrige løsninger der sikrer at kvaliteten af drikkevarerne er i top, eksempelvis ved temperaturkontrol og køler overvågning. Da vi er en virksomhed der selv udvikler og producerer alle vore løsninger fra bunden, inklusiv vores cloud, har vi også stor fokus på løbende at optimere og forbedre alle elementer. Vi er naturligvis i denne proces, lydhøre overfor branchens input og ser ligeledes, at de mennesker der er en del af vores team, har et indgående kendskab til industrien. Vi har pt. base i Greve, hvor vi har lækre rammer i et komtorfællesskab, med egne kontorer og godt med albuerum – såvel fysisk som mentalt i teamet. Vores kerneværdier som arbejdsplads er:' • Positiv, professionel og konstruktiv i vores dialog, både internt og i kontakten med vores kunder • Med et smil på læben kommer man langt – humor er derfor en vigtig del af vores hverdag • Vi løfter i flok når en udfordrende opgave skal bæres i mål • Fleksibilitet og gensidig tillid er nøgler til en effektiv indsats I scale-up processen hvor vi lige nu befinder os, tilbyder vi ansættelse under funktionær vilkår, med tilhørende sundhedsforsikring. Velkommen til Provargo!
