Baum Guitars is a Danish brand manufacturing high-quality instruments in Aarhus, Denmark. The Baum team design and craft a variety of guitars and basses rooted in the Danish design and modern instrument crafts. The Original Series and VEGA Series complement the Danish-made guitars by offering more accessible and approachable Baum instruments designed in the Danish custom shop and crafted in Asia. All our instruments are rooted in our love for the classics combined with our Danish approach to production, quality, and design. We care about making instruments you can put through its paces tour after tour. We believe every guitar should be inspiring and remarkable, so you can create something noteworthy. Danish design combines simplicity, functionality, and elegance into one instrument. Our instruments present sleek lines and sophisticated curves. The smooth, organic lines invite players to pick them up and plug them in to create music. Proprietary designs play a big role in why Baum guitars look, feel, and sound different. We design our hardware and pickups to streamline the Baum experience. Goldsound® pickups, Baum Precision Tuners™, TrueTone Tremolo™, and the Levitator™ roller-bridge are all fine-tuned to improve the instrument’s quality feel, sleek look, and dynamic sound. We're musicians. Just like you. We just happen to make guitars for a living. Baum started the same way most bands do. In a basement. A need to create something of your own — not a copy of something else, but something that carries your name and your decisions. That's how Morten started building guitars. One at a time, after work, in Aarhus. You do it through sound and notes. We do it through wood and design. That basement is now a small team. The guitars are now on stages around the world. And that's where we meet you.

Proku is building an AI-native bid management platform to help Swedish B2B companies selling to the public sector win more tenders, by combining each company's own bid history with outcome data and human corrections into a system that improves with every bid written. Public procurement in Sweden represents roughly SEK 900 billion per year across approximately 18,000 published tenders. On the supplier side, the process is brutally inefficient. A mid-sized consulting or services company routinely spends 40 to 120 hours on a single bid: reading hundreds of pages of requirement documents, hunting down CVs and reference assignments, rewriting the same quality descriptions for the fifth time, and then reformatting everything to match a procurement officer's template. Win rates typically sit around 20 to 30 percent, which means most of that work gets written off. The problem hits hardest for companies competing on qualitative criteria, where evaluation is based on descriptions of methodology, competence, complexion of the tender and delivery rather than price alone. That is exactly where human writing determines the outcome, and exactly the part that is least systematized today. The knowledge lives in the heads of one or two people, rarely in a system. When they leave, it disappears. The consequence is that companies either walk away from business they could have won, or burn their margin on bid work that never converts. Proku is the workspace and data plattform where the bid is actually written, not another monitoring tool that stops at sending notifications. The platform ingests the tender documentation and breaks it down into a structured requirement matrix covering mandatory criteria, weighted criteria, and the evaluation model. It then generates drafts per requirement, grounded in the company's own previous bids, CV database, and reference assignments, with integrations to the systems where that material already lives: Cinode, CV Partner, SharePoint. Every draft is traceable to its source, which matters in a context where an inaccurate claim can disqualify the entire bid. What makes this hard to copy is not the model but the data. Because we own the writing surface, we capture three signals no monitoring service has access to: what was written, what the human changed before submission, and whether the bid won or lost. That combination means quality compounds with usage, both per customer and across the customer base. My co-founder Sadegh and I previously built and sold a digital agency. We spent an unreasonable amount of our own time on public sector bids, and kept having the same experience: we knew we were the right supplier, but lost because we did not have the energy to describe it as carefully as we had in the last bid. The work was repetitive, the knowledge already existed in the company, and we still started from a blank document every single time. When we started talking to other companies, we realized this was not our incompetence. It is a structural problem across the entire supplier side. The public sector has digitized its half of the process. Suppliers are still in Word. This is a market with enormous volume, clearly measurable outcomes, and almost no modern software. We believe whoever owns the writing surface toward the public sector in the Nordics builds something very large, and we intend to be the ones who do it.

The PeopleFirst Standard™ Psychological Safety. Measured. Proven. The Problem Psychological safety is now a legal obligation in 30+ countries. ISO 45003, Danish BEK 1406, the EU Framework Directive, UK HSE Management Standards, Canadian CSA Z1003, and Safe Work Australia all require organisations to assess and evidence psychosocial risk at work. None of them prescribe how. So organisations reach for what they have: engagement surveys. Likert scales that ask people how they feel. Global engagement sits at 21% despite billions spent annually on these tools. Regulators, boards, and insurers increasingly know the difference between an opinion score and a defensible evidence base. The organisations that can't tell the difference are accumulating liability. The measurement approach is broken. We're fixing it. The Solution The PeopleFirst Standard™ is the first independently certifiable standard for psychological health and safety at work. Not a survey. Not a wellness tool. A standard, built on the same logic as ISO 9001 for quality or B Corp for social responsibility. The platform delivers a 25-question scenario-based behavioural diagnostic across 5 dimensions, measuring what people actually do under pressure, not what they say when asked nicely. Results are mapped clause-by-clause to ISO 45003:2021, BEK nr. 1406/2020, EU Directive 89/391/EEC, CSA Z1003-13, HSE Management Standards, and Safe Work Australia Code of Practice simultaneously. Organisations achieving Level 3 or above on our 5-level maturity model earn the independently certifiable PeopleFirst Standard™ mark. Those below receive a full diagnostic report with prioritised, evidence-based recommendations. For Danish organisations, the assessment serves as a validated psychosocial supplement to the mandatory APV process, providing the evidence base that Arbejdstilsynet's own framework requires but does not supply. GDPR compliant by design: no PII collected, sessions destroyed on submission, 20-respondent anonymity floor. Advisory services delivered by a separate team, after the report is issued help organisations act on what they find. Why It Matters 136 independent studies confirm psychological safety predicts team learning, innovation, and performance. (Frazier et al., Personnel Psychology, 2017). Work-related stress costs Danish employers €1.17 billion annually. The conditions that produce these outcomes are measurable and improvable. Where We Are The platform is live at thepeoplefirststandard.com. Active pilot conversations are underway with major Danish employers. The team brings two decades of leadership across military, Ørsted, Novo Nordisk, and startups backed by advisors spanning occupational psychology, enterprise sales, and organisational safety. We are applying for Innofounder funding and building the team that takes this global.

What we are building Joey is building the future of autonomous operations for the physical economy. We are developing the first truly vertical, agentic AI platform purpose-built to eliminate administrative revenue leakage for small-to-medium field service, construction, and artisan businesses across the Nordics. Instead of a passive software dashboard that forces users to click buttons, Joey deploys autonomous AI agents that handle the entire customer and administrative lifecycle. From reading and categorizing incoming leads, managing calendars, processing bookings, and generating invoices, to executing project-specific material procurement - Joey handles it entirely on autopilot or via a secure human-in-the-loop workflow. Our core workspace is "Joey Chat" a natural language control center allowing tradesmen to textually query their business infrastructure and trigger live operational actions on the fly. Best of all? We integrate seamlessly as a non-disruptive layer on top of the financial suites they already use daily (like e-conomic, Ordrestyring, Dinero, Billy and more). Our Story & Traction We didn't build Joey in an isolated dark room. For the last 6 months, we ran a high-growth B2B AI consulting agency in Denmark, hand-crafting custom automation workflows for local contractors. The market response was overwhelming: inbound demand far outstripped our physical capacity to build. We quickly realized that building bespoke infrastructure for 1-3 months per client wasn't scalable. Joey is the direct productization of that validated market demand. We are moving our consulting traction straight into a scalable, hyper-disruptive SaaS ecosystem. Why join us? We are a lean, relentless, and product-obsessed founding team backed by early validation. By joining Joey, you aren't building a speculative product looking for a problem - you are building software directly tied to massive, unmanaged market demand. Our Cultural DNA - There is no second place, winning is the ONLY option: We don’t just participate; we compete to dominate. We have a relentless drive for high performance, set exceptionally high bars for ourselves, and celebrate bold, measurable results. We play to win at everything we do - and most importantly, we play to kill and bury the competition. - Radical Customer Empathy: We are fiercely user-obsessed. We build out of deep empathy for the hard-working tradesmen who rely on Joey to run their businesses. We listen intently, put the end-user first in every single discussion, and measure our success by a single metric: the undeniable value and freedom we create for the customer. - Product Obsession: We believe that exceptional engineering and elegant product design solve the world's hardest operational problems. We don't build generic software patches; we build intuitive, robust, and high-impact agentic architectures. We are deeply product-focused, ensuring Joey feels like magic to use.

Baser Baser is a family-owned, direct-to-consumer brand designing premium parasols, patio umbrellas, and bases. Founded on Scandinavian design principles, radical honesty, and a genuine commitment to sustainability, we help families across Europe and Australia make outdoor shade decisions they won't regret. We currently operate across four markets — Denmark, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Australia — with the ambition to become the modern market leader in e-commerce shade solutions across Australia, the US, the UK, and Europe. It's a category that has been overlooked for decades, and we see clear white space to build something better. What makes us different Nearly every umbrella in the world is produced by the same handful of factories and sold the same impersonal way: through retailers, marketplaces, and middlemen with no real relationship to the end customer. We took the opposite path. Baser is a fully digital, content-led, direct-to-consumer brand — and as far as we know, the only one in our category combining mid-to-high quality, an online-first model, content leadership, and genuinely personal service. That personal service is central to who we are. Instead of chatbots and call centres, customers get real, human guidance — including founder-led advice that helps them choose exactly the right product for their space. We'd rather educate someone honestly than push them toward the most expensive option, and that approach has earned us the trust of thousands of families. Products built to last We don't believe shade should be disposable. Our products are engineered to outlast the seasons and the trends: 100% aluminium frames — no rust, no wobble, wind-tested to 50 km/h Solution-dyed fabrics that hold their colour for years rather than fading after one summer Certified UV protection up to UPF 80+, with real, verifiable numbers PFAS-free across the entire range — safe for families and the environment GRS-certified recycled materials throughout, including our patented sandbag base system Backed by a 5-year spare-parts guarantee and a 10-year frame guarantee If something breaks, we fix it. We're building products people keep, not replace. Our values and culture We're a small, ambitious team that takes our work seriously without taking ourselves too seriously. We value honesty over hype, quality over shortcuts, and specificity over vague claims. We're transparent about how and where our products are made, and proud of the quality behind them. Above all, we're building a company where people feel trusted, supported, and clear on what success looks like — grounded in strong human values and high standards, as we grow into new markets around the world.
