Alvar Pet is a Helsinki-based startup on a mission to minimise the carbon pawprint. Dog ownership is rapidly growing – this year, there are more puppies born in Finland than babies. Dogs have become our family members, and we are ready to invest in them: the money spent in pets has more than doubled within the last decade. We worry about where the pet industry is heading. Dogs are pampered with more and more stuff, and fed with meatier food than necessary. Opulence doesn’t make a dog any happier, and the overconsumption happens at the expense of the environment. Pups bring so much joy to our everyday. That’s why owning a dog should not be a choice against the climate – and that’s why we founded Alvar. We founded Alvar to joint together the growing popularity of pets and the growing popularity of eco-aware lifestyles. We do it by offering (easy for customers, need-based for dogs, impactful for environment) sustainable solutions to conscious pup owners.

AsoY is an impact-driven Health-Tech StartUp. Our product is a neuro-intelligent app that builds and strengthens mental health and personal leadership. We challenge a large-scale problem, which is stress that costs somewhere between 10-20 billion kr a year in Denmark alone – not to mention the severe personal costs. When it comes to stress, A FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM IS that it doesn’t follow reason. You cannot rationally decide to get rid of stress, because it messes with your brain by blocking important cognitive functions. SO: to BREAK OUT of stress, you need to BREAK THROUGH these cognitive barriers. AsoY does that with a radically different solution that literally “BLOWS THE MIND”, as it automatically breaks through cognitive barriers. It does that by using an unusually effective and effectful element, which is visual art that operates on the stress’ terms: behind the cognitive system. You don’t have to know ANYTHING about art to feel the effect, because when you look at works of art YOU LIKE, cutting-edge research shows that it immediately lowers cortisol and inflammation levels in your blood, while serotonin and oxytocin boost your energy and calm down your nervous system. Moreover, AsoY is based on founder’s 10 years experience practising as a professional coach & stress coach and her ph.d. on how art automatically affects the brain (from mirror neurons, the limbic system, memory, concentration and focus to the nervous and hormonal system). That combination of theory and practise forms the basis of the app’s 5 simple steps that guide the user with clear instructions and questions to an ultra-personal experience leading to insights which encourage action towards beneficial change, immediate effect and long-term impact. SO, WHEN IT COMES TO BREAKING THE CODE TO MENTAL HEALTH, there is rational evidence for strategically using an irrational element, which most people would consider works of art to be. AsoY invites it’s users to choose a work of art that speaks to them and guides them through a step-by-step process in which they realise that it also speaks about them. They discover that the piece they have chosen mirrors important sides of themselves. The process facilitates direct access to the CORE of the users' personal resources, which they can use in their current situation to address the challenges they face here and now. AsoY EMPOWERS USERS with a daily tool to build long-term personal leadership, reduce stress naturally, break out of it automatically and avoid falling into relapse. We’ve tested the method with a. 1000 people and 90% say that it changes their mental state from unease and overwhelm to peace of mind, mental clarity and the energy to help them focus, prioritise and make decisions about what’s best for them, what makes sense and what makes a noticeable difference in their lives. We are close to our users and witness how they interact with the app, because we use it as tool in workshops and 1:1 coaching sessions. We know it works. Now it’s time to scale it up and let app stand alone. BUT, in order to sell it B2C in its own right and to the B2B clients we already have as well as to the B2G clients, we have in the pipeline, we need to upgrade the simple but fully functional MVP to a full-blown commercial product. THAT' WHY WE ARE LOOKING FOR INVESTORS AND 1-2 TECH CO-FOUNDERS in UX and code, who are: - passionate about the fast-growing market for health tech, digital health, mental health and arts & health, which Google has just launched a large platform to support - attracted to the idea of getting ownership in an impact-driven health tech startup and lifting a proof-of-concept MVP to a commercial product that can reduce stress naturally and automatically and build and track mental health over time. Anonymously, of course. We can get there for a. 70.000 € Get in touch if you are curious to be part of the journey: info@artspeaksofyou.com

Valerian Funds' vision is to be the world's preferred source of growth capital for online businesses accessible at the click of a button. Simple, Fast and Non-Dilutive From startup founders to startup founders, we have been there – we know how hard it is to raise capital. Your business needs to tick a particular box with a VC or have a minimum track record for a bank manager. Ultimately, a successful fund raise is less a testament to the quality of your business and more a consequence of being at the right place at the right time – not a very comforting thought. The founding team at Valerian set out to create a product that would eliminate the serendipitous element of fund raising and instead root the investment decision in hard data – eliminating the self-selecting criteria of who you know and instead focusing solely on performance. The team at Valerian brings in a wealth of unique specific expertise that aims to provide you with the best available, most flexible and ultimately cheapest cost of capital available for your growth.

OrderBuddy is a digital menu platform that helps dining places to an efficient and quick order flow without getting annoyed customers. We have all been out in a dining situation where the waiters are too busy to get to you, and it takes the fun away from being there with friends and family. What if you could just order and pay, have fun with the people you are there with, and then wait to get served. After you're done, you can order more, or leave the place without getting the waiter one more time. OrderBuddy is an ordering system, where guests can place and pay their orders directly from the table on their own phones. No need to install anything, just scan the QR code on the table, or go to the webpage and find the dining place, add items to the cart and pay. The order goes directly to the kitchen or bar. The idea for OrderBuddy of course started when I was out dining with some friends. The place was busy, and we actually wanted to order a new round of beer to the table, however the waiters were too busy elsewhere, and when we finally got a hold of the waiter we decided to just pay. The restaurant lost revenue and ended up with customers who had a bad experience.

Norway’s unique landscape necessitates one of the most extensive tunnel networks in the world. 1800 road and rail tunnels contribute to 9000km of tunnel in Norway. These are inspected manually by eye and on foot, a time-consuming and hazardous process producing only qualitative data on tunnel safety. To combat these issues, Techrail aims to provide an integrated solution that is safer for inspectors, that does not interfere with traffic, and more comprehensively evaluates the safety of tunnels. Our solution enables the measuring the change of a tunnel’s surface over time, which allows tunnel directors to predict maintenance needs and more accurately evaluate the state of their tunnels. A digital paper trail will also aid regulators in overseeing tunnel maintenance. Furthermore, our technology has a large number of secondary uses that provide value such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), tunnel construction, and crack detection.
