It doesn’t fit the needs of innovative and fast-growing businesses today.

Our technology makes it possible to reduce the time to hire from an average of 5 months in Europe to just 2 weeks.

KOMBO AUDIO is a DTU based Audio startup, creating a modular, easy to use audio system empowering hobbyist musicians & upcoming artists. Our mission: Powering Live music for everyone! Through the last 10 years, the internet has enabled a revolution in the music industry, making it much easier for independent musicians to create and share their music on social platforms like soundcloud. This is however a completely different story when it comes to the artist's ability to perform live, and share their music with people in the real world. Here, the only available Live audio equipment is wired, complicated and extremely time consuming to use and set up - which works directly against the artists wishes of spontaneous creativity and independence of the musical industry. We are changing that with our Live music system - enabling small artists and musicians to set up their own live stages, whenever and wherever they please!

By doing this we will help them, and their families, to make day-to-day activities simpler. Karma Mobil’s offer consists of a mobile subscription packaged with a number of add-on services. To make senior citizens feel more comfortable being digital, we include a service for ID protection. With the ID protection, the customer gets for example notified and assistance if their social security number, bank account, credit card or e-mail address is fraudulently used online. We offer this solution together with our partner MinUC which we have an exclusive agreement with. Apart from the ID protection service, Karma Mobil AB are in discussions with other possible partner companies who provide different solutions for people with special needs. The solutions varies but common for them is that they bring support for individuals and the families. One example is to keep contact and plan for day-to-day activities over a digital platform. In addition to the digital to digital services, we also offer our customers a blog where topics in relation to our target group is covered. By this, our customers can get insight and inspiration to become more active – both digitally and in “real life”. Karma Mobil has also signed up with a couple of partners with discounts and offers specifically for our target group. The purpose of this is to create a feeling of community and recognition for our target group. As a new player on the Swedish telco market, we focus on a target group that does not get much attention. Instead of marketing Karma as “cheap” and “easy” (even if we are) our message is that we care. We show this to our customer by having competitive rates and subscriptions that includes something else than just the ordinary mobile services. We also show that we care by having a staffed support organisation which can be reached by phone, chat or social media. We are on a journey from being brand new on the market, unknown to anyone to become the obvious Mobile operator for those who appreciate extra care.

We back bold entrepreneurs in their earliest stages and help shape the foundation of their aspirations. We classify investments into three categories; BUILD, SCALE, and FOMO. Building cases are companies that are so early that the company might not even be registered with the authorities yet. It’s merely an idea that we need to shape together, right from the beginning. Here we put in lots of hours and enough capital to build a minimum viable product and test the product on the market. If successful, we move to a scale-up phase investing more money and/or raise capital from external investors. SCALE cases are more developed. The first team is there, and they are close to a product-market fit. We help build the foundation with capital, advisory and agreed-upon milestones within, e.g., legal work, growth hacking, or strategy. Finally, yes, we do also invest in FOMO cases with only capital…
