Brain+

Digital Therapeutics for Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia. Our mission is to restore patients' independence and quality of life by detecting and treating dementia with digital technologies. Brain+ is addressing one of the largest healthcare challenges of our time, namely dementia. Currently, 1 in 3 seniors die with/of dementia in the US and globally 50 million people are diagnosed with dementia – and unfortunately, this figure is expected to more than triple to 152 million people by 2050. As we generally live longer and the prevention and treatment of the most common causes of death such as cancer and heart disease are getting more efficient, dementia is expected to become a leading cause of death by 2030 and is already the leading cause of death for women in the UK. Dementia puts an enormous emotional burden on the patients and their loved ones as cognitive abilities deteriorate, behaviours change, and independence is lost. It is also a massive and increasing financial burden on society and our health care systems with an accumulated global cost upwards of 1 trillion USD globally today and expected to double to 2 trillion USD within decades, and eventually expected to eclipse the cost of cancer and heart disease.

SCiBreak AB

SCiBreak is a Swedish company founded in 2014 to commercialize new technology for interrupting electric current. Our technology allows for interruption of high AC or DC currents with high returning voltage within a few milliseconds. Conventional AC breakers need several tens of milliseconds to break and existing DC breakers for high voltage are generally very costly. The parts cost of breakers based on the concept is considerably lower than that of competing solutions. Our roots are in many ways at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm where many of us have worked and studied.

Ebie

Ebie is paving the way for a modern security solution for landlords and renters. We replace the traditional deposit with an insurance solution. For renters, the deposit can financially be very harmful. The design of a deposit is inherently poor. We quickly realized that there is no need for a deposit at all. We replaced the security component with an insurance policy, it protects the landlord and brings fair conditions to the renter. As a result, we can completely change the way securities are defined in the real estate industry. Ebie is an insurance agent, we are partnered with a large Swedish insurance company that enables us to sell our insurance product. This way, we can offer comfortable and risk-free securities for both landlords and renters. We are developing a platform where landlords and renters can apply for our insurance on existing rental contracts. Furthermore, we are determined to offer landlords great value beyond not having to handle deposits again. As an insurance agent, we assess thoroughly the risk with each renter. We realize the value for us, but also for landlords to know this about their customers. We are just about to begin selling our insurance product. Platform development is underway. We are determined to simplify renting for both renters and landlords with improved security. Would you like to join our team? Keep an eye out for job postings, or contact us directly.

Klint

Welcome to Klint! 🎨 We help more people decorate the spaces they love with paint in a sustainable way. 🌿 Today, furnishing and decorating the places we live in with paint is a mix of: 1. Fun! (getting inspired, visualizing different colours, matching colours, textiles and styles) 2. Not-so-much-fun (driving to the paint store, looking at +100s of shades of paint, driving back and forth a few times for more samples, maybe once more for some extra painter's tape, etc.) At Klint - we hope to be able to keep the fun (!) and skip the not-so-much-fun, while also supporting the shift towards a more sustainable future, starting with our recyclable paint packaging. Sounds fun? Then we would love to hear from you. 👋 Warm regards, Team Klint

FOROS

FOROS is a green investment platform that makes forest management and investing simple and accessible for everyone. Our key features are: sustainable forest management and secure cross-border investing. Forestry is a dinosaur industry that we aim to disrupt. Coordination among marketplace participants is very fragmented. For a forest owner, it is cumbersome finding out prices from different forestry companies and finding a trustworthy partner, especially across borders. Foros opens up opportunities for much wider groups of people to benefit from owning forests. People will be able to invest in forests at ease, entrusting forest management to our experienced forestry professionals who will take good care of forests and manage them sustainably. Forest owners will get our offers and suggestions for how to best manage the forest. We call them 'your forest value growth plan'. These offers forest owners will be able to activate and implement within a few button clicks. Behind the scenes, to aid better decision making we will utilise big data analytics and machine learning. To date we have handled €24m in forest land transactions. This shows that there is a dire need for a digital, modern solution for existing forest owners.

AsoY

AsoY is an impact-driven Health-Tech StartUp. Our product is a neuro-intelligent app that builds and strengthens mental health and personal leadership. We challenge a large-scale problem, which is stress that costs somewhere between 10-20 billion kr a year in Denmark alone – not to mention the severe personal costs. When it comes to stress, A FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM IS that it doesn’t follow reason. You cannot rationally decide to get rid of stress, because it messes with your brain by blocking important cognitive functions. SO: to BREAK OUT of stress, you need to BREAK THROUGH these cognitive barriers. AsoY does that with a radically different solution that literally “BLOWS THE MIND”, as it automatically breaks through cognitive barriers. It does that by using an unusually effective and effectful element, which is visual art that operates on the stress’ terms: behind the cognitive system. You don’t have to know ANYTHING about art to feel the effect, because when you look at works of art YOU LIKE, cutting-edge research shows that it immediately lowers cortisol and inflammation levels in your blood, while serotonin and oxytocin boost your energy and calm down your nervous system. Moreover, AsoY is based on founder’s 10 years experience practising as a professional coach & stress coach and her ph.d. on how art automatically affects the brain (from mirror neurons, the limbic system, memory, concentration and focus to the nervous and hormonal system). That combination of theory and practise forms the basis of the app’s 5 simple steps that guide the user with clear instructions and questions to an ultra-personal experience leading to insights which encourage action towards beneficial change, immediate effect and long-term impact. SO, WHEN IT COMES TO BREAKING THE CODE TO MENTAL HEALTH, there is rational evidence for strategically using an irrational element, which most people would consider works of art to be. AsoY invites it’s users to choose a work of art that speaks to them and guides them through a step-by-step process in which they realise that it also speaks about them. They discover that the piece they have chosen mirrors important sides of themselves. The process facilitates direct access to the CORE of the users' personal resources, which they can use in their current situation to address the challenges they face here and now. AsoY EMPOWERS USERS with a daily tool to build long-term personal leadership, reduce stress naturally, break out of it automatically and avoid falling into relapse. We’ve tested the method with a. 1000 people and 90% say that it changes their mental state from unease and overwhelm to peace of mind, mental clarity and the energy to help them focus, prioritise and make decisions about what’s best for them, what makes sense and what makes a noticeable difference in their lives. We are close to our users and witness how they interact with the app, because we use it as tool in workshops and 1:1 coaching sessions. We know it works. Now it’s time to scale it up and let app stand alone. BUT, in order to sell it B2C in its own right and to the B2B clients we already have as well as to the B2G clients, we have in the pipeline, we need to upgrade the simple but fully functional MVP to a full-blown commercial product. THAT' WHY WE ARE LOOKING FOR INVESTORS AND 1-2 TECH CO-FOUNDERS in UX and code, who are: - passionate about the fast-growing market for health tech, digital health, mental health and arts & health, which Google has just launched a large platform to support - attracted to the idea of getting ownership in an impact-driven health tech startup and lifting a proof-of-concept MVP to a commercial product that can reduce stress naturally and automatically and build and track mental health over time. Anonymously, of course. We can get there for a. 70.000 € Get in touch if you are curious to be part of the journey: info@artspeaksofyou.com

PANTER

Replacing single-use food containers with packaging-as-a-service. For the environment and everyone. Did you know? Packaging for food and beverages are among the most common litter in towns and parks, as well as at beaches. Current recycling rates are poor (~8-9%) in Sweden and globally and 90% of the recycled plastics are exported to developing countries. It's time for a change! PANTER offers a reusable lunch box and coffee cup for restaurants, cafés and catering. According to the Directive on single-use plastics (2019) all EU countries are required to "Take measures to reduce the consumption of drinking cups including covers and lids, and containers for prepared food" Which means that in Sweden: Ban on disposable cups containing more than 10% plastic Mandatory to offer the drink or food in a reusable cup or lunch box from 2024 The restaurants we have interviewed want to get started! Why? – Increased customer loyalty – Brand that’s not associated with waste – Opportunity to promote sustainability - Lower costs for packaging
