Maka is a designer of premium quality bags, clothing, boards, and apparel for skaters currently launching worldwide with our first two products; water-resistant skateboard bags in two unique designs that make transporting your board 100x easier. Who is behind Maka? Maka is driven by a dedicated team in Medellín, Colombia. Maka is the brainchild of two skaters; Diego Pineda (CEO) and Jorge Calle (Lead Designer). Diego was born in Colombia but fled to Arizona, USA, with his family in 1999 due to violence. He picked up skating immediately and would go on to work for skate shops and tour the country with a team. He returned in 2008 to study International Business, although he never put down his board, certain that he would find a way to make a living out of skating. Jorge was born in raised in a small ghetto in Medellín, Colombia. While many of his friends found their way into drugs and violence, Jorge found his way forward in life either on top of a skateboard or behind a sewing machine. His true passion is to create without limits, to try, to fail, and to try again until he’s created the best there possibly could be. So Diego, why did you start Maka? I live a pretty simple life philosophy; I do what I enjoy doing. However, like everyone (especially skaters), it can be hard to do what you really enjoy and pay the bills. I’ve always looked up to the skate culture for inspiration ever since I started to understand it – the style, the clothes, the street, the attitude to be against the norm of society… It’s a close-knit community, although it’s an individual activity. You don’t need a team to be able to skate. It’s a way of self-expression, and that, for me, is the starting point of it all. What is the ambition of Maka? There are not many cultures that truly accept everyone. Skateboarding does. White, black, green, yellow, purple, tall, short, weird, funny, cool – everyone is accepted because it’s about your individuality. For the majority of my life, most of the people I’ve met come from skateboarding. It all comes down to having fun. Learning, falling, and getting back up. So, why does all of this relate to ambition? Because, while we’re taking the brand worldwide, we also want to seize the opportunity to support more kids with what skating has given us; a way to express ourselves, a sense of purpose, and life-long friends. Skating made our lives what they are, and now it’s time to give back. 10% of all profits go towards supporting social causes here in the city of Medellín. To follow us on our mission, we invite you to follow our social media to help more children find paths away from the drugs and violence that are still present in this city.

Aeris is a Copenhagen based bottled cocktail brand, handcrafted to the highest of standards. The concept is simple: everybody should be able to enjoy a high quality, perfectly balanced cocktail, regardless of their skillset or financial status. More often than not, a really well balanced cocktail, made with high quality ingredients, is only really accessible in high end restaurants, hotels and bars. For those with the financial means to enjoy cocktails in these places, Aeris cocktails is simply a really nice supplement when one wants to have an equally good tasting drink at home (the importance of this rose during the pandemic and lockdown). For those with less deep pockets, Aeris is simply put some bottled luxury for a decent price. Our recipes are an echo from Barcelona where our founders started their journey, and every cocktail is handcrafted and bottled to the highest of standards. The essence of Aeris is all about wanting to step out of the box, do something that feels fresh and exciting, a new concept embracing that amazing Copenhagen vibe. Our brand oozes of luxury, and yet, is very affordable, for anybody who wants some atmosphere at any place, at any time. Sustainability and quality is key for us and so we have a zero plastic policy and refill options to ensure our bottles get reused. The founders are currently trying to find the time to keep up with the growth and demand, and are in need of a cool team of people to help in the journey of taking Aeris out into the rest of the world.

Vi har hovedkontor i København, og er så heldige at have gode partnere til rejsen, herunder Accelerace (www.accelerace.io/).

The innovation ecosystem plays a crucial role in the success of startups, but these ecosystems are facing operational and strategic obstacles that limit their potential. The operational difficulties include an inability to effectively support startups leading to high failure rates, low engagement from startups, and resource-intensive reporting processes. On the strategic front, innovation ecosystems face intense competition and struggle to scale their efforts and establish sustainable business models, which often rely heavily on government funding. These challenges impact a wide range of players in the ecosystem, including incubators, accelerators, universities, and enterprise innovation departments. Addressing these challenges can lead to a thriving startup ecosystem, boosting economic growth and driving progress. By investing in the solution of these significant problems, the innovation ecosystem has the potential to unleash its full potential and drive positive change.
