Tid is a watch startup challenging the assumption that products should be designed for a single, default body and identity. Most watches are built around narrow aesthetic and ergonomic norms, leaving many people adapting themselves to the object rather than the other way around. We design unconventional, modular timepieces that prioritize fit, expression, and personal meaning over tradition. The problem we solve is not accuracy of timekeeping, but relevance: creating objects that reflect diverse bodies, lives, and ways of being in the world.

Dimmi is an early-stage Danish legaltech SaaS start-up revolutionising how European companies navigate the complexities of immigration law across the European Union. Companies across Europe are increasingly in need of international labour and talent. Yet navigating immigration law and obtaining work permits is highly challenging and costly for companies of all sizes. Combining unique research and legal insight into migration law and global mobility with augmented retrieval technology, Dimmi is building the first-ever digital infrastructure for end-to-end case handling of international hires, making legal immigration compliance fast, easy, and cost-predictable. From guiding users through the most viable visa track, deadlines, and documentation requirements, Dimmi empowers companies to file compliant applications to the authorities faster, cheaper and with higher rates of compliance. Dimmi is a spin-out company pioneered by a research project conducted by research conducted at the University of Copenhagen, Center of Excellence for Global Mobility Law by Dr Christian Prener with aim of resolving the major legal and financial bottlenecks that European companies face when hiring candidates from outside of the EU. The project is funded by Lighthouse, University of Copenhagen’s innovation centre and currently based at the University of Copenhagen. We are in search of a co-founding CTO to lead the development of the technical platform in collaboration with the Alexandra Institute. Both junior and senior product architects and software developers are encouraged to reach out to hear more.

At our core, we deliver Autonomous Insights through two flagship products: earli AI and Syncast. Our mission is simple - remove the friction, guesswork, and manual effort that have historically held organizations back from preventing risks and performance loss in real time. earli AI is the world’s first autonomous people-risk intelligence platform for Group Life, Disability, and Health carriers. We enable carriers to access, detect, and act on emerging risks long before they materialize - without surveys, manual inputs, or integrations. By combining AI-driven profiling with continuous real-time signals, earli AI provides the industry’s first truly proactive, accurate measure of preventable risk. The result is earlier intervention, better outcomes, and a fundamentally more resilient book of business. Syncast is the first fully automated, AI-native sales insight engine. It listens, learns, and dynamically captures every pipeline shift, deal movement, and team interaction - all without a single CRM entry. Sales reps save countless hours, leaders gain unprecedented visibility, and teams operate on clean, complete, real-time data that was never possible before. With Syncast, the focus moves from administrative work to winning work. Together, earli AI and Syncast redefine how organizations understand people, performance, and risk - autonomously, intelligently, and effortlessly.

We buy exclusively from farmers who grow their cacao under 100% ethical and sustainable conditions.

Parlia AI is reimagining how Government Relations (GR) teams produce policy-facing documents. Today, these teams spend countless hours drafting structured, templated content — ministerial letters, submissions, talking points, and briefing notes. Our goal is to build a purpose-built AI platform that learns from an organisation’s historical materials to generate high-quality, on-brand, and policy-aligned outputs, freeing professionals to focus on strategy rather than manual drafting.

Only 7.9% of new medicin is approved for phase 1 clinical programs - life saving cures are being scrapped because of poor reproducibility. Today, researchers designing complex in vitro and in vivo experiments jump between many tools that do not talk to each other. Protocols are written in free text, naming is inconsistent, raw data is scattered across drives, and inventory and cell banks are tracked separately. This makes it hard to reproduce experiments, compare results across projects, trace which cell material went into which batch, and satisfy regulatory expectations. Small and mid-sized labs often cannot afford enterprise platforms like Benchling or Dotmatics, so they manually glue everything together and rarely get to use advanced analytics or AI. BioPilot solves this by standardising the full early-to-in-vivo CTR pipeline in one product. Users can register and template in vitro experiments (differentiation, expansion, cryopreservation, device testing, etc.) and in vivo studies (animals, groups, dosing, housing, ethics documents) using fixed ontologies. This gives every experiment a structured schema and a precise schedule of readouts, barcodes and data types to collect. Raw data (FACS, scRNA-seq, imaging, counters, bioreactor logs, etc.) is then automatically linked back to the right experiment, condition and sample. On top of this, BioPilot offers: • Inventory and cell bank tracking that makes it trivial to trace which vial, edit or expansion batch was used where. • Live bioreactor monitoring with alarms (email / phone) to prevent losing expensive batches. • A growing library of free analytical tools, including automated FACS gating, scRNA-seq pipelines and image analysis that can feed results straight back into the experiment records. • A global ontology service for vendors, instruments, cell lines, species and process terms, with a roadmap for a public API. Because everything is structured and queryable, BioPilot makes it much easier to compare experiments, run Bayesian optimisation on process parameters, and let AI suggest next-step experiments. The pricing is kept aggressively low (free tier plus a simple paid tier based on storage), so smaller biotech and academic groups can access capabilities that are normally reserved for organisations with large software budgets. In short, BioPilot aims to become the operating system for cell therapy R&D: a single, affordable platform where experiments are planned, executed, monitored and analysed in a way that is standardised enough for automation and flexible enough for real-world biology.

Tapp is developing a software-only POS suite—tap-on-phone payments, eshop self-order, Native AI data platforms, and AI-assisted menu/setup - to help small UK service businesses ditch expensive hardware POS, solve slow service and rising operating costs, and stay compliant by default, powered by our ultra-fast UX, AI onboarding, leading AI features, and embedded payments. Independent cafés, massage parlors, and any other service spots are squeezed by hardware terminals, clunky back-office flows, and staffing shortages—which translates to slower turnover, longer queues, and lost revenue. Operators also face VAT/receipt/tips complexity and card-data obligations that traditional POS doesn’t simplify. The market is crowded, but legacy and “one-size-fits-all” tools still mean slow UI, multi-minute setup, and rigid pricing. Our analysis of UK-relevant providers shows many still require dedicated hardware or fragmented QR solutions—creating cost, training, and integration friction for small teams. Whilst providing insights on all the data collected, without the user having to ask. Tapp replaces boxes and paper with a phone-first POS: - Tap-to-Pay on iPhone & Android: take contactless cards/Wallets directly on staff or owner smartphones—no reader required. Fully productised in our “Staff” flow. - QR self-order, eshop & pay: guests scan, order, tip, and receive receipts digitally; staff stay focused on giving the best service, not card machines. - AI onboarding & menu import: snap a menu or upload a file; Tapp auto-parses categories/items, generates a store description, and lets owners tweak with guardrails (VAT, pricing, tags, duration). - Built-in compliance for UK SMBs: support for e-receipts, VAT invoice scenarios, and transparent tip/service handling—plus card-data best-practice via our payments stack. - Embedded payments on Adyen: unified acquiring, wallet rails, refunds/chargebacks, payouts, and potential embedded finance/share—with clear IC++ economics and SoftPOS fees. - Elite performance: our internal tests show UX runs 2.7× faster LCP and 3.3× less blocking than a leading competitor—keeping staff in “flow” during rush. Why this wins: zero hardware CAPEX, minutes-not-weeks deployment, faster service cycles, and fewer receipt/VAT/tips headaches—all in a single app the team already knows how to use (their phone). Feature depth is production-ready across signup/KYC, menu, staff, orders, payout views, and refunds per our shipped user stories. Whilst (soon) providing industry-breaking intelligence to make the small merchants play in the big leagues. We started Tapp after watching small venues spend too much on terminals and too long wrestling slow software—only to still miss orders at peak. We dug into the UK compliance tangle (VAT, receipts, tips) and saw a chance to bake the rules into the workflow, not bolt them on. Then we validated the experience with hard performance data and a best-in-class payments partner so owners can serve more customers with less kit and less stress. That’s why we’re doing this: give time back to small operators with a POS that is fast, compliant, and delightfully simple.

At Innovation Roundtable, our focus is on helping large multinational companies navigate one of their biggest challenges: innovating in complex, fast-changing environments. While most corporates understand the need to innovate, a lack of cross-functional collaboration, and difficulty translating new ideas into real business impact. We bring senior executives together across industries and geographies to share experiences, learn from each other, and explore practical approaches to innovation, digital transformation, and organizational change. By creating a trusted, peer-to-peer network through our Summits, workshops, and online community, we solve the problem of isolation and limited perspective that innovation leaders often face in their own companies. Our mission is simple: to make innovation in large firms less of a struggle and more of a shared journey, supported by learning, collaboration, and real-world insights.

Across cities, countless square meters are sitting unused – basements, garages, parking spots, and storage rooms. At the same time, people are struggling to find space: the driver without a parking option, the student with too many moving boxes, or the small business in need of affordable storage nearby. Today, the market is fragmented. On one side, people rely on Facebook groups and classifieds – messy, insecure, and inefficient. On the other side, traditional self-storage companies offer standardized units, but often at high prices and in inconvenient locations. What’s missing is a trusted, flexible platform that brings everything together – where you can easily find, rent, and share all kinds of space, from a neighbor’s garage to professional self-storage, in one seamless experience. That’s the gap we’re here to fill with Nearby.

PharosBio is building an autonomous AI scientist—a platform and APIs that help biopharma and research teams reduce R&D risk by turning fragmented evidence into decisions across discovery and translation. The problem Despite billions spent on R&D, the research ecosystem runs on incomplete, siloed insight. Around 90% of drug candidates still fail in the clinic, wasting time and capital and delaying therapies for patients. This affects 4.5 million scientists across pharma, biotech, and academia who must constantly decide what to study, why it matters, and whether to proceed—with evidence that’s scattered and stale. Our solution We’re building the first agentic AI built for life sciences: a system that plans, reads, reasons, and writes like a tireless collaborator, and plugs into existing workflows via APIs. What it does • Target discovery & repurposing: surfaces novel targets and repositioning opportunities from literature and data; ranks by mechanism and evidence strength. • Translational go/no-go: aggregates preclinical and clinical signals to support milestone decisions with transparent rationales. • Scientific writing copilot: drafts systematic reviews, grant sections, IND-supporting summaries, and patent landscape briefs with citations. How it fits • Platform + APIs integrate with existing tools and pipelines. • Evidence-first UX: every recommendation is linked to sources; uncertainty is quantified. • Autonomy with control: agents run end-to-end tasks, while scientists supervise, edit, and approve. Outcomes • Faster time to insight, • Fewer dead-ends, • Higher confidence at each stage from early discovery to translation. Our motivation We’re expats who fell in love with Denmark’s research culture and collaborative ecosystem. We started PharosBio because agentic AI is powerful but under-applied where it matters most—healthcare, research, and biotech. Watching promising ideas stall for lack of clear evidence lit the spark: we want to equip every scientist with an always-on partner, so more therapies reach patients - us and our loved ones!
