Similarly to how cars replaced horse carriages, a new era of influencer marketing is approaching. Influencer marketing has become a jungle to navigate. Colab enters the market with polarity and new ways of doing things, aiming to re-invent, simplify & streamlining the influencer marketing process by offering a more effective product to brands with a cooler interface. Colab is helping brands facilitate, manage and scale their influencer campaigns, whether they have experience within the field or not. The industry has moved towards limited transparency and unfair pricing, with the general perception being that the more followers, the better the candidate for a campaign. However, the inverse relationship between follower volume and engagement rate makes this notion untrue. By harnessing the power of nano and micro-influencers, we're proving that relation matters more than size regarding impact. We are building our value proposition on this: By activating 10-20 micro-influencers instead of one macro influencer. This way, brands can have a more cost-effective campaign and deliver a higher ROI. Micro-influencers tend to have a more niche audience which can be highly targeted and more likely to convert to customers. This will reduce the risk of fall-throughs and ultimately have greater reach, effect, and overall return. We handle the influencer volume through our platform. The content creators follow brands they like, which is how we pick the relevant content creators for a particular campaign. No need to reach out to multiple influencers that don't like your brand in the first place. The relevant content creators get picked, can access the brief, order products, track packages, upload content for approval and chat with us through our Colab app. In other words, we have compressed the process to its core, turned the table, so the content creators pick the brand, and assembled all necessary steps and communication in one place. One of the most crucial factors in our approach is the community we build and nurture. We are very selective regarding brands we collaborate with and content creators. Hence, insofar as possible, we prioritise working with authentic brands and mainly content creators with some edge in a niche market, making them valuable to the brands wanting exposure to their particular niche. Colab began because we all saw how the influencer marketing industry was speeding out of control with the perception that the greater the reach, the better the candidate, at the expense of prices going through the roof, despite a lack of transparency and all campaign-associated data showing how well the campaign performed. In combination with the fact that trust tends to be more prevalent among nano and micro-influencers and their audience, mainly driven by their ability to create content that is perceived as more authentic and relatable, which can lead to greater credibility among their followers, additionally, making their engagement rates higher than Macro-influencers. Colab autogenerates a digestible data report on campaign performance comprised of every content creator participating in the campaign, which gives an overview of the content, the reach, impression rate and many more metrics. In Colab, it is, therefore, not crucial whether you have 2.000 followers or 200.000 followers as long as you are authentic and make an effort in what you are creating and posting regardless of what it is.

A cloud-based industrial IoT solution for manufacturers of all sizes that boosts productivity with powerful analytics in a pay-as-you-go package - Improving productivity of the factory in terms of man, machine, and time efforts. Optimizing the factory capacity for production by keeping in mind orders, stock of raw materials, and multiple other factors. - Scrap management - you are too late in the process if you realize that a specific order is producing scrap. UpKip's goal is to identify scrap before the order is launched for manufacturing. - Higher asset utilization. CNC machines have monitoring and control software installed on their monitors and controllers, but one person monitoring one machine is too expensive. UpKip allows for one factory worker (machine operator) to monitor multiple machines. The goal is to increase this load to 10 machines per worker. - Compliance, quality assurance, and reporting of all types of manufacturing KPIs to interest groups (customers, partners, sister/mother/group companies, and owners) to the factory. Certain interest groups nowadays are interested in being more vested in the entire process and understanding their supplier processes for example. Making sure there is traceability in the process is important to make sure quality standards are matched. Nearshore and offshore manufacturing facilities are often faced with daily and real-time reporting.

A startup from Haugesund in Norway was established late 2021 aiming to create better and more revolutionary products for building powerlines. There is the slow development of new and innovative products in this industry, which we have experienced ourselves while building powerlines. A quick youtube search on building powerlines will leave you astonished by the old-fashioned techniques and products that are being used. In many areas of the building, it is done in the same way as 20 years ago. Despite all this, the need for reliable power is bigger than ever and continues to grow every year. While the demand is growing, the existing power grid is deteriorating. Our products will make building new powerlines safer, and cheaper and will deliver less environmental damage. Combined with hardware products, software, and AI we make optimized solutions for the future building of energy distribution. We are starting to test products this summer, get confirmation from customers and continue to build product this fall. We are looking for team members who have experience in start ups, business and IT,whom wish to make a real contribution to meet our electric and green goals.
