TaskShare

During the last few years we had been noticing that there is an increasing amount of youngsters on e.g. Facebook, who offer themselves for helping with small tasks such as lawn mowing and pet sitting. They are willing to show their credibility and work ethic to people and find their place at the society. Unfortunately, often the Facebook walls they post their offers are so filled with extra noise, that not many potential adults ever see them. At the same time, while working on different great companies, we have found out that mid-/senior level employees do not only have more than enough of work to do at the office, but also very often have a family and a house to be taken care of. They work from 9-5 at the office and after that they head straight to the home and start the, we like to call it "workday no. 2". They indeed are the heroes of work, but we started wondering, is there anyway we could help them to get more out of their spare times, so that they really can enjoy their lives. Not to mention, that we could clearly see ourselves on their shoes in a few decades. With these two problems in mind the idea started slowly to take shape into the form of a web platform, where these two huge groups of our population could solve each others problems with the help of our matchmaking efforts. Adults with two workdays can buy the most important asset there is for their lives, they can buy valuable time with their loved ones. At the same time they can act responsibly by sharing their mundane tasks from gardening to window cleaning for local youngsters, who can finally show that they can be trusted and that they are diligent, which could be huge to their future careers and also they get paid for that. After the COVID-19 pandemic started taking over the world, we eventually came into the conclusion that this is our time to help people to get jobs and the economy to grow in a new way. We started quickly constructing the platform and now we have finally launched the first public MVP. We believe the working life is going towards a disruption, where peer-to-peer hiring will be a thing that enables people to solve each others problems. And that is what TaskShare is designed for.

The Pattern Agency

The Pitch The Pattern Agency is developing a digital B2B marketplace to help the design industry (fashion/interiors/textiles/consumer goods) solve easy access to premium Scandinavian print design through a custom-built marketplace hosting a series of innovative digital services. The What The design industry is digitally immature and has worked according to the same system for many years. However the market is rapidly changing and consumers are becoming more aware which means the old system is becoming obsolete. New digital and readily available services are required and that’s where The Pattern Agency comes in. Buying print design has been analogue for years where many purchases are done at physical trade fairs. But as fairs only occur a few times a year and the customer demand is quickening, the need for readily available print design is increasing. The majority of design companies outsource print design but find it difficult and time-consuming to locate new design talent. Or they ask their over-seas supplier to deliver a print and loose control over copyright and infringement which could be devastating to the brand and the business. We are looking to replace an analogue system with a digital one and in the process changing how the industry operates by inventing services that they didn’t know they needed. The How By developing a user-friendly platform that caters to the mind, eye and business sense of the creative buyer, our aim is to build a full-service platform that incorporates every aspect of the needs of the design industry and thus becomes the only tool required for buying prints, design, inspiration and guidance online. A one-stop-shop and platform. The Why As both founders are design industry professionals, we’ve been frustrated by the lack of out-of-the-box thinking in the industry for years. Founding partner Oskar is a graphic designer and has been commissioned print work for fashion and interior companies historically. He found these processes extremely time-consuming and his commission hollowed at the end of a project and thought there must be a better way of doing this. Founding partner Ellen has been working with freelance designers and know of the frustration and will to get their work out on the market and the struggle to gain audience with companies in the industry. So the design industry is struggling to fin designers and designers are struggling to get in touch with the design industry. This is the problem that we want to solve and in the process disrupt an industry. The Scandinavian design expression is renowned and highly sought after internationally and our aim is to put Scandinavian print design back into the position it had in the 1950s. And to do so using modern technology and invention. We’ve built a rocket and all we need now is rocket fuel in terms of funding but also a business partner with experience of disrupting markets that can push us and the company to success.

Optio Incentives AS

We aim to simplify how employees and key resources can gain ownership and take part of the value created within a company. All companies are different. And the incentive scheme for one company might not suit the next. An incentive program should not be “just a document” signed by an employee and stored in a drawer. A successful incentive program is built around its ability to generate the feeling of ownership and motivation, and its ability to align the interests of the employees with those of the owners. Through our software and expertise we assist management, founders and companies to achieve their optimal incentive scheme. We believe in ownership and its inherent motivational effect, and wish to enable more companies with powerful tools in order to achieve this.

Goodtalks

About Goodtalks is a professional digital network for woman. The platform supports woman in building a strong network they can draw upon to advance their career. Our goal is gender equality in leadership roles and management boards – to the benefit of the individual, corporations and society at large. The What SDG 5: gender equality Despite the fact that it’s recognised more women in top management has a positive impact on the bottom line, gender equality in Danish leadership roles and management boards leaves a lot to be desired. With 27% of woman in leadership positions Denmark is the lowest ranking of the Nordic countries and even below the OECD average of 31%.1 When it comes to corporate and board management numbers are even lower. In 2018 the proportion of women in top management was 13% and board management 17% , and the trend is decreasing. For instance only one of the C25 listed companies has a female CEO. One challenge is that candidates to fill top leadership positions are recruited via network and since these are male ‘heavy’ it creates a vicious circle that takes effort to interrupt.1 Goodtalks address the network issue that prevent women from landing top management positions by offering a platform where woman can build strong alliances and get support to grow their career. The How Goodtalks offer professional women a digital platform that allows them to build and strengthen their network across roles, functions and businesses. It works as an exchange of experiences and knowledge, which given the digital format removes barriers by making help, sparring and sharing easily available. In addition the setup encourages honest exchange of both good and challenging experiences, which serve to fuel our members with needed competencies and courage to advance their career. Further members are regularly offered the opportunity to meet in person at live events where they network and listen to two inspiring speakers (e.g. CEO’s and politicians) who share the unglossy version of their career stories. The Why Spending many years in Corporate World, Pernille who established Goodtalks, would at times find herself in organisations that had a deep negative impact on her mood and wellbeing. So much so that she would bring the tension home and take it out on her family. Searching for an explanation (and solution) a pattern emerged. Business where she had struggled to thrive all had a lack of female competencies in leadership roles and management boards in common. An imbalance that affected the entire organisation. A deep desire to facilitate balanced organisation via gender equality and change this dynamic took root. Pernille identified community as a key leaver to achieve this. An environment where women can meet up online and offline to share experiences and support each others growth. She also recognised that in order for the sharing to be relatable and have a transformational impact it had to be honest and ‘unglossy’. Soon after Goodtalks was launched.
