Paint'R

In the European Union alone, more than 1.5 million paint buckets are discarded daily, constituting a disposal of 340 tons of single-use plastic that is incinerated each day. Starting from early 2023 (2025 in Denmark and Slovenia), manufacturers are obligated to cover the disposal costs of their packaging based on sustainability criteria. In Denmark, this translates to an estimated 15% fee on paint buckets. Furthermore, the conventional round shape of packaging has proven suboptimal for logistics and transportation. Beyond its environmental impact, the traditional paint bucket poses challenges for professional painters. These challenges encompass ergonomic issues during handling, such as the strain of lifting two buckets simultaneously, which exceeds recommended weight limits according to the Working Environment Authority. Painters also find themselves in awkward positions when pouring paint into a roller bucket for wall application. The demanding physical nature of the painting profession in Denmark results in accelerated fatigue and early retirement for painters. Additionally, issues like lid leakage due to dried paint and the use of fragile, porous plastic contribute to unexpected spills, particularly during abrupt vehicle stops. Our innovative solution involves a cardboard box housing two patent-pending plastic bags, each containing 5 liters of paint. This packaging not only enhances the workflow for professional painters but also reduces costs and lowers carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions by approximately 65% per unit. The box's design facilitates easy and ergonomic transportation, allowing for a 45% increase in units per pallet. The box is opened, and one of the bags is inserted into a standard roller bucket used by painters. The bag effortlessly opens and seamlessly fits into the roller bucket, wrapping around the edges, and enabling the painter to begin work promptly. This functionality is made possible through an innovative patented design and specific plastic welding techniques.

Astma Allergi Shoppen ApS

Astma Allergi Shoppen ApS er en virksomhed dedikeret til at forbedre livet for mennesker med allergi og astma. Grundlagt for fire år siden af Kristina Andersen, drevet af hendes personlige erfaringer med sønnen Elliots alvorlige allergiske reaktioner, har virksomheden vokset sig fra et hjemmebaseret initiativ til et omfattende lager i Roskilde. Kristinas motivation til at starte Astma Allergi Shoppen stammer fra de udfordringer og mangler, hun stødte på i sin søgen efter allergivenlige produkter. Hun indså, at mange produkter, der markedsføres som "allergivenlige", faktisk ikke lever op til dette løfte. Dette førte til, at hun personligt undersøgte og testede hvert produkt, hun tilbyder, sikrende at de virkelig kan gøre en forskel for mennesker med allergi eller astma. Hun trækker viden fra anerkendte kilder og organisationer som Asthma Allergy Nordic, ECARF, NOMITE, DTU, Videncenter for Allergi, COPSAC og Lungeforeningen. Virksomheden startede med en investering på 40.000 kroner og gode leverandøraftaler. Fra at købe kun et par stykker af hvert produkt, er Astma Allergi Shoppen nu vokset til at bestille store mængder, hvilket afspejler den stigende efterspørgsel og kundetilfredshed. Oprindeligt hjemmebaseret, flyttede virksomheden først til et lille lager i Hillerød og derefter til det nuværende store lager i Roskilde. Ud over at levere produkter, engagerer virksomheden sig også i projekter for at forbedre arbejdsmiljøet i hjemmeplejen og hos virksomheder. Virksomheden arbejder på at udvikle sine egne produkter, såsom kemifrie madrasser, for at imødekomme et marked med begrænsede muligheder. Astma Allergi Shoppen har opnået en betydelig omsætning, og Kristina sigter efter endnu højere mål i de kommende år, inklusive en potentiel Gazelle-pris. Hendes virksomhed er ikke blot et handelsforetagende, men en passioneret indsats for at skabe en bedre hverdag for allergikere og astmatikere.

IT.no

IT.no ble stiftet sent i 2020 med en klar visjon om å forenkle IT og digitalisere Norges bedrifter. Målet var å klare dette med til gunstige priser og den beste kundereisen med ansatte som har langvarig erfaring fra bransjen. Vi skulle bistå både som en komplett IT-avdeling for bedriftene, men også for muligheten til å begrense tilbudet til medhjelpere for eksisterende IT-ressurser hos kundene. Gründerne i selskapet har begge langvarig erfaring fra ISP og IT bransjen der de bygget opp egne avdelinger. Det var viktig at både en tekniker og en selger begge stod på eiersiden for å ivareta produkt og service så vel som det kommersielle. NØKKELINFO 7MNOK omsetning 2021 183% omsetningsvekst 2022. 11 Ansatte herav 9 teknikere, en selger og en utvikler Ingen eksterne eiere Tilbyr komplette IT-løsninger Oslo basert hovedkontor UTVIKLING Med produkt, “go to market” strategi, visjon og gode innkjøpsavtaler lanserte vi selskapet mot det Norske bedriftsmarkedet i 2021. Det tok ikke lang tid til før flere anerkjente bedrifter stod på kundelisten og flere dyktige ansatte tiltrådde. Selskapet selger i dag hovedsakelig basert på anbefalinger bedrifter i mellom med kun en aktiv selger, men har måttet stoppe salg ved flere for å ivareta gode kundereiser. Vi starter nå et nytt selskap som skal fornye maskinvare/hardware markedet B2B som er bygget på en plattform vi utvikler.

PORPLE

Oskara presents: PORPLE. PORPLE helps companies to start incorporating security into their software development. PORPLE does this by evaluating multiple different aspects of software development to suggest what action provides the best return. "We need to change. We can't fix everything at once. PORPLE helps us get going". The cybersecurity market is NOT adapted to help companies balance security with the current pace of demand. Instead, there are 2 extremes. Either the patch-work, buy-more-security tools method, where you try to fix issues after they've been discovered, OR the overhaul method, where it's expected that companies seize all other operations, to fix their security flaws. Both of these options are too expensive, too slow, and don't provide either sufficient security, happy workers, or good returns on investments. PORPLE covers the spectrum between these 2 extremes. We understand that companies need to change, but also that reality makes this hard, so you have to be smart with your decisions. Sometimes it's the purchase of security tools, sometimes education sometimes just a little line of code, but there's a time and a place for all of these. I (Oskar) started working on making PORPLE a product as during my career, both as a developer and cybersecurity advisor, I've seen that there exist no flexible options for companies, which usually results in companies either choosing to gamble with their security or waste huge amounts of money because they don't understand the huge field that is cybersecurity.
